Objecty alpha available - app for game animation and editing

[skn3]

Hey I posted a few weeks ago about our campaign for Objecty.

I am just posting a new thread to say that we have released an alpha demo for people to try.




Objecty is an app for all game developers regardless of engine, language or framework. Object makes game artwork and asset related tasks a breeze. We can pack textures to improve game performance; Animate characters using a skeletal structure to produce efficient and fluid graphics; Create game objects that allow us to organise things without manually editing data files, and a whole lot more!

Basically if you have ever made a game at some point you would have needed to make an editor, manually edited some text files or generally just do some grunt work in a pretty inflexible way. With Objecty our mission is to change that, without changing what you make games in!

So that's the blurb and I hope this interests you guys so go check it out!

Looks nice, such a shame there's no Linux version.

I, too, must express my disappointment about the (current?) lack of Linux version. Right now there's an incredible lack of game creation tools on Linux, and putting support for this OS on the backburner is basically throwing opportunity out the window.

Hey there it is definitely not on the backburner, it is just the fact that there is only me who does the majority of code work at the moment so I have to balance my workload. Id rather release Objecty on one target first and then the next and then the next. Doing so on all three platforms at once would be a bit of an unrealistic task.
