I don't think law would be particularly helpful in this situation as we've little but anecdotal evidence to go by and, quite frankly, I don't think anecdotal evidence helps much in proving identity theft, if the law even considers something like this identity theft. I could be wrong though.

I feel sorry for Happybobjr. Glad things are being discussed though.

*another bump*
Implemented alpha Stamina Gauge. Blue bar part decreases and increases with rise and fall of stamina.

Oh. My. Goodness. That is EPIC. This guy has skills! :O

Since, he didn't respond to my email, I'll talk to my friend today.

EDIT: I talked to him, he will do it. It'll take him about a week, b/c he's studying for the SAT. Normally it would be like 2 days.

That's more than fine. SATs are important ^_^ I wish him good luck!

Nice, although for some reasons I like the red heart better.

I kinda thought the red heart was a bit too red, honestly.

Also, just to throw this out here for lack of better updates: I contacted Motoi Sakuraba in regards to using a song from the Golden Sun soundtrack in my game and received a reply telling me to go to Camelot as while Sakuraba composed the music, Camelot holds the copyright. I am going to compose a letter in the next few days and mail it to Camelot asking if I can either have permission to use the song or buy a license allowing me to. We'll see how that goes. The song in question is the Venus lighthouse theme from GS1 and 2:

Why do I want to use it in my game? You'll find out if I get to ;P

*bump* New video demo

Demonstrates:
 - Heart graphic flashes red when taking damage and turns yellow when gaining back health
 - Three different atmospheres: Normal, Miasma, and Sanctuary.
      - Normal deals 1 damage per 2 seconds
      - Miasma deals 10 damage per 2 seconds (Miasma is mainly used as a world boundary or a progress blocker)
      - Sanctuary restores life energy at a rate of 1 per 1 second

Laggy video is laggy and poor quality. Sorry. To point out a few things it's butchering:
 - There is no lag in the actual game
 - The heart icon flashes really rapidly when in Miasma. It doesn't just glow red.

Also, it's not shown, but the actual numerical counter turns yellow at 10 energy or less and red at 0. The heart graphic also turns grey at 0. Nanami doesn't die though, yet

new demo video


HUD is 25 pixels smaller and the heart graphic has been improved.

Does your friend happen to be Martin Leung? O_o

I'll post another video tomorrow showing off the HUD and running. Also, to expand my previous query:

Should the HUD include a "Stamina meter" and what sort of meter should it be?

[edit]Alpha "Minecraftian" HUD. Enjoy it

Note, the top bit is a debugger bar and won't be there in the final product
