I took a look at your product, and your site, and I just thought I'd list a few negatives in case it helps you somehow: 1) No screenshots? I don't want to watch a movie. Also, if I have to watch a movie, I want to be able to scrub through

I think complaints about history editing have some validity - as a team leader, I definitely do not want the history of my project, warts and all, to be editable by junior members attempting to hide mistakes/flaws in the production flow. T

The Blender3D game engine, as well as hacking on my own 3D engine (mainly a curio, nothing great) .. but Unity is just so much more productive. After an afternoon spent on the Unity tutorials and hacking on AngryBots, I'm sold.

I've used them too, for years .. its my 'go-to' for sparse arrays on any internal/utility projects I'm using. I'm a bit hesitant to ship anything using them to end-users, though, due to the HP patent issue .. but thats just a gut feeling.

Unity is really not less than a total 3D environment for developing games .. you can definitely use it to do 2D style games (or 2.5D games, where 3D models are locked on the Z-axis, as you say) but in my opinion if you want flat bitmap-styl

As a rabid fan of your project, some things I think it needs: a) cloud storage - somewhere to stash Lua scripts and retrieve them for playback (See moai cloud for inspiration: http://getmoai.com/ ) b) sound synthesis - not just .WAV playba

I think for sound it would be nice to have a little synthesizer where you can specify attack/decay/sustain/release, oscillator type, frequency and so on .. sort of like the SOUND command in the old 8-bit computers, even.

I agree that this thing is underpowered - a Beagleboard would be a better investment, since its at least beefy enough to support having its own development environment onboard. I run mine as a normal Linux workstation, no cross-compiling r
