Motion-Twin sources

At the beginning of August, Skool from Motion-Twin published the sources for most Twinoid games or older. It allowed us to advance, complete, or even start some projects.

General

We continue the rollout of the new deployment system: it allows project leads to manage their own deployment. We started in July with Neoparc; in August we enabled it for La Brute and Kingdom. In September, we'll finish the migration and move all the remaining games.

The goal for the end of year will be to fix some long-standing issues around accounts: email verification, password retrieval, account deletion...

Application update

The Eternaltwin application lets you play all Eternaltwin and Motion-Twin games, with Flash. We recently released the brand new version 0.6 thanks to Aksamyt.

The main change is the update to various internal components. In particular, it improves performance and fixes compatibility problems with MyHordes.

Play to MyHordes.

PiouPiouZ

Now that Motion-Twin published the source code for most of their game (see above), we have all we need to work on reviving Pioupiouz. We were missing the level editor and latest versions of the game. But now it's fixed.

We are almost done building a website to let you play and share levels using Flash. We also started work on an HTML5 (non-Flash) version.
