Feedback after gamejam

I make a game for gamejam in this weekends. The theme was reflection. Here is my feedback.

1)I use texture pixels to check filling zone. Defold can’t render predicate to texture. I can render predicate in render target or I can render pixel in buffer. It will be cool If I can render predicate to buffer, and work with that data. Think about it. Reading pixel can be used for some pixel perfect collision and some other tasks.

2)I use https://github.com/britzl/defold-screenshot for that. Thanks for @britzl.

3)I try build for android from editor but it not work. I have app in device, and I see device in targets. But updated version not run. I can add more info later in that week.

4)It will be cool if editor can worked with adb. In my home pc I use some adb scripts. But in jams I use laptop, so every mobile build spend my time. If editor support adb from the box it will be cool. Also it will help update app when native extension changed.

5)Android build have some problems with defos I write it yesterday plz fix it=).

6)I try Rx with defold. And it awesome. It was so easy to forget about all that messages.(i don’t like them=))

7)You can play game here: https://d954mas.itch.io/use-symmetry . Only pc and android. Html don’t worked because of screenshot extension.

8)I Make symmetry in shader. Remember some math rules and improve my knowledge. It was interesting.

9)In prev jams I have some problems with editor. In that jam all worked and no crashes. It is cool.

10)Also I have some problems with debugger in prev jam. Today all worked.

11)New profiler is awesome. Thanks.

12)Released build not worked. It show black screen. And no warnings or errors. I have no idea why. But I don’t have any time to check it. Also debug is ok for jam entry.

13)Try stencil mask for go. It worked but it wasn’t easy to understand it.

14)All sources in github:

Defold is awesome engine. Thanks for it=)

You’re welcome!

Yes, please provide more info!

What would you like to do specifically? Install/uninstall app? Logcat?

We do plan to add support for editor script extensions. They could be used to launch adb commands from within the editor.

I believe we have a fix for this planned for Monday.

You mean this: https://github.com/bjornbytes/RxLua ?

We did release screenshot support for HTML5 earlier this week. Maybe you weren’t aware of it?

We have put quite a bit of work into editor stability in general. I’m happy to hear that you’ve noticed the improvements!

Yeah, thanks @inactive-vilse!

Yes install, update, and logcat.

Yes. I use my fork with go and go_distinct operations. RX + Defold

I see it.but it used a different api. So I do not look on it.
