Graffiti LIVE! is gone again!

After working fine for 4 days, some technical difficulties with Graffiti LIVE appeared JUST today and has broken the auto-sharing system- actually looks like an XBL issue BUT a patch is on the way to work around it.

It shouldn't take as long as this time to get it patched.


edit: OK it looks like everything is working again. I did end up pulling the game yesterday tho, so if you are looking for it and wondering where it went. :P Check back in a few weeks. The next patch should address the heavy slowdown when you accumulate 100+ drawings.

Graffiti LIVE! is back!

The patch has been approved and Graffiti LIVE is now available once again!
Get it on the Marketplace!

Thanks for your patience!

Whats new:

• fixed memory leak crash while drawing
• restructured the network distribution system, now should be alot more robust + reliable
• fixed the network session getting lost and having to restart
• a network session is now limited to only 2 people
  
• more verbose networking messages on main menu
• ability to manually create & join a network session
• new style comment boxes
• preventative error checking on comments
• menu sound effects
• online gamer presence
• hint box on first save for new users about how to submit drawing
• bound memory limit to the total available space
• while drawing the back button now displays the controls
• new "More Bwoot" menu in options
• color picking doesn't reset the opacity anymore
• fixed scrolling past the max number of images
• fixed crash when Hold/releasing guide button, while starting game simultaneously

The Graffiti LIVE Patch

The latest patch is submitted and has been sitting in peer review for 2 weeks. It is 25%, the last time it incremented was 10 days ago. Right now its on the first page of the review queue, so hopefully people will review it soon..

If you are a creators club member, and wanna be a pal- heres the review link! http://bit.ly/bf6hOR

Patch Delay

Ok well, patch got rejected- It'll be another week to resubmit it, then another 1.5-2 weeks to see how far it gets.

Tip: If you are going to submit an XNA game, make sure your XBOX Guide code is solid, because thats pretty much the #1 thing they test for.

Patch submitted

Submitted as of yesterday morning. So now its time to play the peer review waiting game!
It'll probably be a week and a half i'm guessing?

GraffitiLIVE Patch

Patch is undergoing final testing, before submission. I am thinking it should go online in 2 weeks? As long as it doesn't fail, but thats why I am testing it VERY THOROUGHLY

To Mindjolt Visitors:

Welcome to my blog!

So you may have arrived here after playing Puzzwords, which just happened to go up on MindJolt just yesterday.

Puzzwords is the 2nd flash game I made- the first was Paw Frenzy! It is a much more simple game, but at least it has a nice cat who you can pet :) It is also on MindJolt, you can try it here:
