    Do you ever pay for games?

    Wow, great comments. And honest ones too. I hear you about xbox live enabled titles sadly its close to impossible for an indie to publish an xbl title, even Disney games aren't ! I've got achievements built in but they will probably only be seen in ios and android versions os game centres. my...

    Do you ever pay for games?

    ah well some of the colour schemes are brighter - theres one that's CYMK in your face. but basically its meant to be a faded, paper like subtle colour palette - I guess that's not everyones cup of tea. I did think about releasing an identical version with some bright cartoony graphuics, jewels...

    white or yellow?

    I had glossy 820 and 920 and matte 800/1020 I'd say the matte is less slippy. never dropped the 800/1020 - several 920 drops - only little dinks - dropped 820 after a week - smashed to bits. both times dropping happened while pulling out of my pockets.

    MonoGame - porting to android

    yes ive been looking slightly baffled at these diagrams and tutorials but was rather hoping for a 'magic bullet' that doesn't require me to serialise over 100 data structures.

    white or yellow?

    I have the yellow 1020 and after several months theres not a single 'grubby' mark on it and when there has it wipes off instantly - its a premium finish. i think the white is equally stain resistant.

    Usefulness of the tiles?

    I think if tiles are done well they are wonderfull. sadly most are nothing more than an image or only update once in a blue moon. I made an app that is basically nothing more than a live tile. I wanted to play with what a live tile is. (its called 5 a day - and its there on your home screen to...

    Do you ever pay for games?

    I launched a free game today (PENKU) in teh past i would of put it up at 69p / $1 but it seems that that is the sure way to get 10 downloads even the big titles are all F2P (with the odd exception in the xbox live zone) I hate in app currency/energy systems. Though I'm thinking of adding...
