I couldn't finish night 22 (hard mode), but I could finish the rest of the hard nights.

Maybe tomorrow I will publish the code here.</p> <p>The performance is very good. If you have a game with Openfeint (or CocosLive, Agon, Plus....) and it uses cocos2d, I recomend you that integrated this system in your games. It's really, no more lag.</p> <p>Greeting. </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/4778/page/3#post-30979 Sun, 21 Mar 2010 17:02:00 +0000 manucorporat 30979@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>The screenshot was a example with a UIKit view.</p> <p>I am currently developing this system in OpenGL.<br /> Right now, I am adding the posibility to add a callback if you press the notification.</p> <p>If you have a idea, you could post it here. </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/4778/page/3#post-30978 Sun, 21 Mar 2010 16:47:25 +0000 David994A 30978@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>@manucorporat, @riq I agree - I totally hate it when an OpenFeint notification pops up and slows down the game.

It's a fun game in the tradition of space shooter like Galaga. A couple of comments/suggestions...</p> <p>- The first time I played SpaceBlast, it wasn't obvious to me that you controlled your spaceship using the accelerometer<br /> - I second asinesio's suggestion about background music for the game<br /> - I like the "little" details in the game, like the explosions and the thrust effects<br /> - I couldn't figure out how to pause the game</p> <p>Looking forward to your next update... keep up the good work!<br /> James </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/5094#post-30968 Sun, 21 Mar 2010 13:33:04 +0000 jamessun 30968@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>I took 4W3TP7XENMLA...

I have resampled the gestures (as a JSON array), so recognition should be way better.<br /> Would not hurt also to have some rating in iTunes ;-)<br /> I have taken a look at the link you have sent (metric). Great effort but his approach cannot scale beyond a few gestures.<br /> With $N, adding a complex gesture takes roughly a couple of minutes.<br /> I am thinking of contributing the $N code to the open source (This is just an Objective-C implementation of the $N algorithm).</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>Olivier</p> <p>PS: Let me know about your project if you do not mind. </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/5162#post-30940 Sun, 21 Mar 2010 02:43:40 +0000 kalx 30940@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>I'm also one of the developers on this app. No one wants a promo code!?

I guess it gives you a credit towards a particular app or game..</p> <p>On the app store at the bottom of the "featured" page, I clicked "Redeem" entered a code and it responded with "Code has been redeemed", and nothing more, so I don't know if it was already used or what. You'd think it would say, "Code has already been redeemed", or "The entered code has now been accepted and you may use it toward a purchase" or something like that</p> <p>I thought maybe you would enter these promo codes after you select a certain game or app to buy. Seems kind of strange to just enter a code before you have even selected a game it supposedly applies to. I could have just redeemed a valid code and not used it, since it is unclear whether it had already been used or not or what the deal is with it.</p> <p>Maybe I can try a SpaceBlast promo code, if there is still an unused one left, just to see how the promo code thing works, if someone will explain how you know whether or not a code has been used already.</p> <p>Also are these codes case sensitive when you enter them? </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/4778/page/2#post-30929 Sat, 20 Mar 2010 21:54:54 +0000 MisterX 30929@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>Did you use bitmap images as 2D texture maps for your "vector" sprites? Your vector sprite lines look smooth with no aliasing. To my knowledge you cannot draw anti-aliased lines on the iPhone or iPod Touch. </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/4717/page/2#post-30922 Sat, 20 Mar 2010 20:32:08 +0000 itlgames 30922@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>On applicationWillTerminate event on your main delegate class, you could call a method to go through the list of objects in scene and save position. That is what I do on my game, I use SQLite to save all data, but you could even use the NSUserDefaults and save an array of objects. </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/4778/page/2#post-30921 Sat, 20 Mar 2010 20:25:38 +0000 manucorporat 30921@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>Hi<br /> @coolman thank you for the review.</p> <p>I am developing a notification system like Openfeint but in OpenGL.</p> <p>The API is like:<br /> <pre><code>[[AWNotification sharedManager] addWithTitle:@&quot;Openfeint:&quot; message:@&quot;Player8745938 is connected&quot; image:@&quot;openfeintLogo.png&quot;];</code></pre> <p>This is a example with Ipod music notifications:<br /> <img src="http://manucorporat.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/img_0106.png" /></p> <p><strong>Some features:</strong><br /> -You can choose the animation of the notification.<br /> -You can design the notification.<br /> - Without performance loss.</p> <p>More ideas..</p> <p>I am going to publish the code in this forum. </p> http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/4717/page/2#post-30920 Sat, 20 Mar 2010 19:08:26 +0000 pfg2009 30920@http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/ <p>That's a cool suggestion. I haven't considered it yet (or have a clue on how I would go about implementing it), but I will add it to the list of requests. Thanks for bringing it up! </p>
