Crashing Not

No crashes at all today, so I think taking out all the sprite and text objects did the trick!

Facebooking the Sandbox

Richard Vanner, of The Game Creators, put a link to this blog up on their site on facebook. So, welcome all visitors from the f-book!

Shiny GUI

The new GUI is lighter, with a touch of color.

Starting Work

I've put in 4 solid days of work on AGK Particle Sandbox, and I really like what I've got so far. The App Game Kit particle effects system is really fun to work with - I find myself playing with the particles instead of working on the code! My latest effort is to strip all the unneeded sprite and text objects from the program, and use external graphics for a lot of the GUI elements. This should stop any crashes resulting from having too many create/delete cycles with the sprites and text. At least I hope so...
