Howdy There!

JarrenH

Well, I've been lurking these forums for the past few days now, so I figured I might as well make an introduction. I'm Jarren, a hobby developer; I rediscovered GameSalad this past weekend. I've actually had it on my mac for over a year, but never took a look at it, as I was using LiveCode by RunRev for my app development. I was attempting to make a game in LiveCode, but ran into some limitations mainly with the rendering speed of multiple objects. LiveCode is great for utility apps, but it lacks slightly in game development. I figured I would see what GameSalad had to offer, and an hour later I had recreated my app with huge improvements. Transitioning was a snap, as LiveCode has similar real language commands. So far I've been very happy and look forward to seeing its true potential!

Long story short, I'm here because I'm making a game... probably just like everyone else! So watch out for me, I'm getting the hang of GameSalad pretty well, but I may have questions from time to time.

Thanks,
Jarren
