Yes this is correct. All of our other tools and libraries consist of us paying up front for the version we need for our release. If they release a new version, and our application needs that new version, then I am all about paying for it, b

Our company seriously pursued using Spine for all of our in game 2D animations in small to medium sized budget projects. Unfortunately the runtime license was far to costly and restrictive to use for work for hire type client work, of which

Any details on the tech behind it?

You are right, it is probably more of an issue with supporting mobile browsers and desktop browsers with the same game, but web game budgets not having really moved any since the Flash days to support two very different form factors. A proj

I'm not saying it's not possible. I've seen some incredible HTML5 and WebGL games/tests with limited modern browser support. Unfortunately our clients (large children's entertainment companies) require their games c

I was at a primarily Flash based company during the glory days of Flash and then through the transition to HTML5/JS. While I understand perfectly (and even support) why the shift happened (thanks Steve!), its still frustrating sometime

Correction. Apparently they've changed the models a little bit and this is the actual model with all the adjust-ability that our office loves. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Q5XTE8?keywords=lorell&..

Our office has been using the Lorell Exec High-Back for the last couple years and so far we've had no complaints. Before we got these, we had a lot of complaints... Price is very reasonable at $155.00 shipped from Amazon if you have Pr

I think https://www.teamwork.com/ covers most of your check boxes if not all. It is a fairly powerful project management tool, similar to Basecamp but with quite a few more features. I haven't used the time tracking fe

It seems that this is the purpose that Steam's Early Access program fulfills. Players know well that the game is unfinished, but there is still enough there to explore. Users even pay for this early access and then they provide valuabl

From what I understand, there aren't any really simple inexpensive solutions for interactive (or non-interactive) TV displays for use in stores, offices etc. Usually they have a full blown PC running them, which requires a lot more upk

I went to school near Benton Harbor. It's incredible to see the literal line between Benton Harbor and St. Joseph. It's like ghetto > river > water front mansions. Pretty crazy to see such different perspectives within such

I didn't realize they charge so little for their major upgrades. Sorry to assume you didn't do the math.

Logic Pro is a professional DAW as I'm sure you are aware given your years with it. If you can't afford the $199 upgrade, you should probably just use Garageband for free. Personally I prefer this pricing strategy over requiring a

The only thing I can assume is that people like you haven't ever really used Apples full line of products and seen how seamless the experience is in comparison to anything else on the market. Or used one phone for 2-3 years and not fel

That surely isn't extreme when compared to some folks but I would say it's a lot of coffee/caffeine in a day. Good luck kicking it!

Are you thinking of something similar to the Wii U controller which can play games wirelessly from the Wii U via a direct link? Edit: more info on the Wii U game pad link. http://www.polygon.com/2012/11/16/365

That's debatable. I have to think of situations like one I saw in the news recently where some hero decided he should shoot an unarmed robber in the mall. I think there would be far more situations like this if everyone was packing. Pe

I don't think the OP was looking for people to pump their startup here, but ones that people were following and found very interesting. That said, I'm sure you follow your startup pretty closely and are very interested in it.

I sometimes wonder if there is still a mindset passed on from the 20's and 30's prohibition era that alcohol is illegal and therefore cool/badass. Before that was it just a way of life or was it always like this? I constantly

I don't think building on your past successes and mistakes and using the raw data to improve your future endeavors should be considered stuck doing the same thing over and over again. Surely there will be some overlap of knowledge with

I've found that using past data is very helpful. Look at your past projects, compare your initial estimates to the actual outcome when the project was finished. After a dozen or so projects, you should be able to formulate a percentage

I'm not sure why the downvotes, it was an honest question and I thought maybe someone would know more than I about the subject. I have concerns of spending so much time in front of a screen as it is with my 27" monitor & iPhon
