ENIGMA Development Environment

If they really do that paid subscription shit I will dedicate my life to making realistic, graphic YouTube cartoons involving many creative ways for them to suffer in hell. Being serious, the more I find out about these people the more I want to gag. It's not even about running a business and feeding their families. We're just handing easy beer bottles to a bunch of alcoholics. I'm not at all surprised if that's what the bulk of their profits go toward. I doubt they know what charity is.

I thought them charging for Ubuntu was a rip off. Now they are doing this with Windows 8 and Mac. SMH this is really gross what they're doing. I think I'm going to be sick. The splash screen idea is so fucked up. I own master collection but I won't let that blind me to the shit all these other people are forced to deal with.

Now here's where it does effect me, and greatly, I'll have to pay 500+ when 2.X comes otherwise all my games and their required SDKs will never be updated, meaning either I empty my wallet, burn my retirement money, and then some, or I deal with the fact my games will quickly grow outdated and incompatible with most devices I port them to.

Thanks.

Mac, Linux, Android, and Tizen on the way. Should all be done by the end of June, if not sooner, hopefully.

Why thank you Mr sexy.

Fuck yeah! Been wanting this for a while!

I find it really hilarious when someone who doesn't know English at all is determined and stubborn enough to make an English game anyway. This isn't the best example of that, but you got to admit - of all the things they had to get wrong, it had to be the title - which is hilarious. I sound like an uneducated, 40-year-old, hobo, pot-head just reading it. I'm pretty sure that "s" at the end was an accident.

This is embarassing. XD

Harri, there is a reason too obvious to bother mentioning why the newest Call of Duty will run fast and smoothly on the Xbox as a compiled standalone binary but be completely unplayable, incompatible and suck rooster balls if ported to html5/shit5. I'll let you connect the dots yourself on that one. I hope now you know the difference between JS and native, it won't kill you to figure out. GMS has two exports for Tizen and Windows 8. One labeled "Native" and the other "JS". Hmmm... Der I wonder why. to say Html5 can do everything an executable can is bogus. HTML5 / JS is not native, it's sandbox'd and interpreted.

For such an applet as described in the OP, the java part would just download, run, and embed the window of an external app. The native part is what matters most - the actual game after it's downloaded and ran. The game won't suffer from lag like it would with shit5 or even java itself, because the game isn't written in java, in most cases it would be native, compiled, standalone C++ depending on what game engine one would use to make the game for use from the applet.

Also, all browsers that disable java by default prompt you whether to enable it automatically, which takes one click, oh fucking my, one extra click, guess using java isn't an option and isn't as good because it requires one fucking click. that's not important at all. There are too many benefits to using java and native apps there's no reason to go for html5 unless you seriously enjoy wasting your time with games on your phone that are slow as shit, and boring as hell.

Why yes I've played many html5 games on my PC and tablet, many not made with GMS, and yet, no der, the games were extremely simple, slow paced, and a complete waste of time. I've never met anyone who complained about installing or updating java, it take 2 minutes, and I've definitely never met someone who's too damn lazy to install or update it. Big whoop.

Something really great about unity web player that beats GM's Html5 hands down is that it can do all the same things 2D and 3D that GM can on it's non-Html5 platforms, it is also in the browser, and works on windows and Mac just like html5 but without the shitty performance lag that makes tons of potential html5 games unplayable.

I've tried porting my games to html5 and they ran so slow it was a serious joke, unity web player is much better and I seriously doubt anyone actually plays shitty html5 games on their mobile device. They are really slow paced, primitive, and boring as hell.

I personally think ENIGMA should have a new sister project that mimics Unity web player but works with non-unity games. Since unity web player doesn't work on linux that could be our chance to shine. Unity requires an installation for it to work, we could just use java similar to eRun, but cross-compatible with PC and non-PC desktops. Similar to how LGM links to the compiler on the three platforms, it could be done for the games to run and embed in any website.

I doubt this will actually happen but it's fun to fantisize about. *runs away again*.
