We're on all the time that we're working (though we may often be afk hacking away on the site/business). There you'll also often find the people who wrote the parsers we have, but mainly you'll want to chat with Nick Winter, who wrote Aether.
They're in a custom JSON-vector format, and the app turns them into sprite sheets in the code.
Brunch is pretty awesome, by the way. We chose it because it only compiles the files that have changed, which is good because it takes at least 15 seconds to compile the whole app on a fast machine.
Also, just want to point out the CLA specifies contributed content is still owned by the creator, but we're also granted the right to distribute and license it on our end. So creators can always do what they want with their content.
We're not sure ourselves; we're testing the waters with this level to find out exactly that. And if it looks like this monetization strategy has legs, we'll aim to expand what we can provide to companies so we can be more compelling.
We'll be interested to hear what others think about this too!
Yes, but because so much was getting shifted around and refactored and added. I don't think any more bugs were introduced than if he'd done the work over a two or three week period. He spent a good portion of that week refactoring a particularly old and central piece of code, and he spent the better part of the weekend fixing bugs both old and new. So overall I believe we're ahead.
He will. And I will. I've worked with him for years and while our code is not the best code, we do strive to make it maintainable. Especially for a large project like this that we'd like to build a community of coders around.
Don't take this the wrong way - nobody means any disrespect your work, but I'm skeptical (to say the least) about this being a sustainable tempo of work.
So, if you are pulling it off, can you give a comment on how long have you been working like this, and whether there's an simple trade-off in terms of restfulness, social life, etc... You know, can you live like this, and for how long.
