Oh ok, thought you could make multipage apps. Nevermind then.

That at the least sounds promising. Makes me curious about all the tricks you used to get it so small and fast.

Erm, did I say anything about "small?"  I've already run out of RAM twice and had to re-organize things.  I'm pretty much forced to release it in episodes, because a full game will *not* fit in RAM.
As for the story, I'm keeping it secret, but I will post the opening lines:

Quote from: Edge

Welcome... to Edge.
This world, Edge, is a fantastic place.
Its namesake - the Edge - is where this flat planet ends.  It is the literal "end of the world."
However, something like this cannot possibly exist.  The universe simply won't allow it.
Luckily, Edge has found a simple and effective solution:
Magic.
I could go into great detail, but you will learn in time.
My point is that you are needed.  I have some... associates that have requested you by name.  I've taken the liberty of erasing most of your memory, for the time being.  I have also woven your new story into the recent history of Edge.
Speaking of names, have you thought of a new one?
[Prompt for name]
...[name]...
An...ironic choice.
Hmm... You are a pawn, [name].  You and me both.
Until next time.  We'll be in touch.  Until then, get used to Edge.  It's a nice place.  Heh heh...

Anyway, I worked a bit on the engine today, pretty much finished the battle system, and I put NPCs and signposts into the map engine.

Would using something like BasicBuilder be useful in putting all the episodes into one app? Then like have a menu at the beginning choose which episode to do. I don't know. It seems better in my head of how to do this haha.

Wow, this really cool. Just wondering but did Builderboy's Sonic test from a long time ago stir the physics idea part of this at all? (It's somewhere in this subforum somewhere I can look later.) But really, as they have said before me, you underestimate yourself greatly! One of those screen shots later in this topic made the level look embossed (or 3D if you will) sometimes. Very cool. Can't wait to see how this turns out!

Edit: I forgot to mention that an idea for an obstacle could be like a "acid" or "spike" tile that makes you lose also if you hit it. Just a thought

15) Gemini 3D
16) Super Mario v2.0 + MEDIT 1.2
17) Doors CS 7 (I think it can pretty much replace Celtic III, xLIB, Omnicalc, CalcUtil, MirageOS and Noshell at this point)
18) Joltima
19) Lotus Turbo Challenge

There are many others as well, altough I can't remember for the moment.

I do not want to sound rude by saying this but I think that instead of just having DCS7 there it should just be DCS in general because without the other versions that came out before it we would never have DCS7. It doesn't matter either way, just thought I'd put my two cents in (Like I said though, it really doesn't matter either way. Not trying to sound rude.)

Random mid-topic question (sorta). Is that the Pallet Town map demo thing off of ticalc.org?

Sweet, that actually makes a lot of sense now that I think about it. I could never figure out what the "z" could be for

@Z
Thanks!

@DJ
I won't be leaving, just a slow start back from busyness is all

And ya, surprisingly though I don't think I'll be that affected. Though for the past couple weeks I would have eaten dinner about an hour ago (It's noon thirty right now )

Ok, I know I'm WAY overdue for updating this top thread and I'm very sorry for that. I'm also very sorry for being gone a lot longer than I anticipated. I have just been dealing with a lot of personal stuff lately and its just been overwhelming. I have a lot of catching up to do on here, and I mean A LOT, so don't be surprised if I'm behind in news and ask "dumb" questions.

Ok, for my summary of my trip I will be copying straight from my Facebook, so I don't have to retype it all and such, so it will probably seem a bit off since it was meant directly for the people I know in person. Anyways, here it is.

"Ok, so quite a few people have asked about my trip to Europe and before I really wanted to start answering questions I thought I would write this to save some time of getting asked the same ones over and over and such. So let’s start at the beginning.

I woke up and went to DIA and flew from there to Atlanta where we then had a six hour layover. That get’s really boring. But from there we flew to London, which was about a nine hour flight, where we basically immediately boarded the coaches and drove to Windsor Castle. The queen was there, because the Union flag was raised, but we didn’t see her. We walked around outside of the castle, took pictures, and went to souvenir shops. Before we got back on the coaches I got my first set of fish and chips in England. The fish was good but the chips could have been better. (Alexis and Rachel also almost stole a bag of potato chips ) We all got back on the coaches and went to the hotel and then had dinner. After that we had a little free time but then went on a big walk a short distance away from the hotel to across the Millennium Bridge (the bridge the Death Eaters terrorize in The Half-Blood Prince movie in the beginning). We pasted some big cathedral that was being restored, don’t remember which one. The next couple of days we went to the London Tower, saw the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace, went on the London Eye (at least some of us), performed, and saw the musicals if we bought tickets. I saw The Lion King, which I was actually quite disappointed in. The costumes, effects, and instrumental music were good but I was disappointed with the acting/singing. Just wasn’t that great, I thought.

We then were off to France. We drove for a couple hours, then crossed the English Channel (I think that’s which one it was) then drove a few more hours to Paris. We went to dinner first then went to the hotel, had orientation, and that’s about it. The next day we went to this alley place that led up to some cathedral and then we basically had free time until we had to leave that place. After that I’m pretty sure we just went sightseeing with a guide, ate dinner, and then went on a little boat ride seeing sights. Next day we went to the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and preformed. All very cool things just didn’t have enough time in the Louvre really.

We left Paris for Crans-Montana, Switzerland. If you ask anyone who went on this trip (and was awake) they would tell you the sights were AMAZING. The mountains there are just really amazing. That night be basically ate dinner and then had a little free time. So a bunch of us went to the nearby lake and then found a playground to play on. Fun night. Next day was awesome too. We basically had the whole morning off so a group of us took a ride up to the top of a mountain. Very beautiful view up there. We then all got some lunch, some of the best pizza ever. We then all went to some castle there in Switzerland, walked a mile or two (probably an exaggeration) and got some ice cream. Headed back to Crans-Montana, ate dinner. Next morning we all went to Zermatt where we had the chance to get well priced Swiss Army Knives and see the Matterhorn. Unfortunately some stupid cloud kept on teasing us and wouldn’t move out of the way really. Next day we left for Austria.

So on our way to Austria we pasted through Lichtenstein. It was literally about a fifteen minute drive in, wait 45 minutes to get lunch or something, then a fifteen minute drive out and off to Austria. A few of us went into a Rolex store…HOLY CRAP! A phone there was over 12,000 euro. Cheapest thing I saw was still like 300 euro. So we got to Seefeld, Austria. Ate dinner there and had a little free time. We found a playground and somehow I broke my camera’s LCD screen without knowing it. Next day we went to Innsbruck, went to the crystal palace place thing there, got some food and we went back to Seefeld. Had our concert, then dinner, then a little free time. Or something like that. The next day we woke up really early and drove down to Venice, Italy. First time I had slept since the first day we arrived in London. It was very hot and humid in Venice, about the equivalent to working behind the plate for six hours straight in dead heat (umpire reference). We went to a Venetian glass place, which was really cool, and then we heard the choir sing in St. Mark’s Basilica (I believe) which was also really cool. Found a Ferrari store there, way over priced Went back to Seefeld, packed, and left for Rothenberg in the morning.

On the way to Rothenberg we stopped at Dachau, a concentration camp for those who don’t know. That was very sad and depressing. It’s a very chilling feeling when you’re there…it’s hard to describe. It is definitely hard to be there. But after that we finished our way over to Rothenberg and had orientation, ate dinner, then had a little free time till bed checks. Next day was basically a free day for everyone. We had the whole morning off, then just concerts, then the rest of the day. That was fun. After that everyone had the pleasure of waking up super early (or just staying up in some cases) to leave for Frankfurt to fly out to where ever. I went back to Atlanta, where we had another layover but this one was only about four hours. Then got back to DIA and went home after waiting there for like two hours for instruments which we ended up having sent to us anyways…

Anywho, that’s about it. I know this isn’t super detailed but oh well, it’s a basic outline of what happened and such. I’m also sure I mixed a few things up or left a couple days out but oh well, you’ll have to deal

I also know this isn't written the best but oh well. I don't care much right now haha."

Again, I apologize for my absence and hopefully you all can forgive me.
