You are not mistaken (if I remember correctly, full disclosure; I used to be an engine dev on Defold). Not sure why Hokusai tried to point to that forum thread in this case, which …

^this is correct.

I don't have any numbers for you, but I would assume it's on par with other engines compiled with emscripten. We do however focus a lot on performance overall in the engine, and ke…

I heard that there were problems with the tutorial on the dashboard, the one on the main site should work better; http://www.defold.com/tutorials/getting-started/

This is the new upcoming editor, but still very interesting!

For the new editor we are using JavaFX i believe.

My answer will of course be biased, since I work on Defold. But if you are going for a 2D game, I think Defold is a really good choice. We support Android, iOS, desktop (Win, OSX a…

Both of those allegations are false. Nothing is sent to any King servers, unless you actually want to use our analytics tools, which is an opt-in solution anyway. :) The only reaso…

Ooops, missed this question, sorry for the late reply. :) The asset pipeline is not as customizable as one could wish for in it's current form, but something that will change with …

We are working on a new editor, a total rebuild (dropping Eclipse), which will also have a much better GUI/look. It will also enable extendability of the editor and pipeline. It wi…

No data is collected unless you actually opt-in for the analytics. I'm one of the engine devs. :)

That is incorrect. There is an opt-in analytics solution though, and you can in fact store your code on any git server you like. :) (This is how you change git server: https://foru…

Thanks! Yes, this is something I agree with fully, and one of the things I feel works great with Sublime. edit: And while I might not have been it clear enough in my post, I'm not …

Good morning HN! I've been developing (~5 months) a cross-platform (OSX, Win and Linux) desktop application, as an after-work-hobby-project, that is soon nearing alpha state. Up un…

Hah! I'm in need of just this sort of API come January, what are the odds? Awesome, hope you launch soon!

Just a heads up, your CV url seems to return error 500!

All I'm saying; know your audience. :-)

To be fair, the first impression of a job seeking related site should come of as professional, minor design quirks (even stuff like font errors from minor CSS mishaps) can be a thu…

Woah, that looks pretty good, the on-boarding was fantastic. Sadly Poachbox first impressions was not on par at all.

Awesome! But I hope they have some plan to fix this: "!Mediengruppe Bitnik ‏@bitnk moving again. but: USER IS over daily photo limit: bitnik!" edit: Nvm, seems it was only a photo …

I like the subtle Arrested Development joke on the front page. "Loose seal!!"
