  • Rewriting old player movement code

    In my first and previous post in this game dev log entry, I had written that I wanted to do a game which was a collection of simple retro games. Unity released a new major release (2019.3) while I was putting the initial project together, and I…

  • A long, long time ago, I was a pixel artist

    So, I got a Commodore 64 when I was in the 4th grade. It came bundled with a Rolf Harris picture building program on casette tape which never loaded properly but from what I could tell by its box cover, you could build pictures from a selection…

  • A time for change

    Yes, the site looks very different and I've had to prematurely switch to this new theme that I'm working on for a few reasons, the main one is that changing certain aspects of the site to fit the new theme will affect how the old one looks for…

I've read that Google are throwing money at bringing Photoshop onto Linux via virtualisation, but they should've been throwing money at this! (or a web app that doesn't need flash anyway)

I'd say Adobe would be crapping their pants over something like this, but they've been working on an online version of Photoshop for a while now already. I guess what Sumo Paint does show is that the idea of an online paint application is already realised and here right now. Heck, it's got all the basic functionality down pat and you can even save your work too (onto your hd or their space).

With the popularity of netbooks and optimisations being made on browsers for web applications, we're edging closer and closer to cloud computing.

I haven't looked into Avairy or Sumo in any real detail yet. I'm sort of in two minds about the flash graphics application concept on the whole, it seems like you are just downloading the app each time you run it (why not download it and save it). But it's free and you can potentially access them from any internet connected computer which I think is pretty cool/ potentially useful.

I'm also quite demanding with application functionality so I'm probably not the audience these things are primarily made for, hence my lack of enthusiasm.
