Progress update #3

Dahlia was released in early-access around 12 days ago. I’m very grateful for the positive response received so far and those of you who bought it at launch. All your support goes a very long way.

The core foundation of the property inspector is almost complete, and I’ve started working on property panels, which will be the interface used to edit object properties. If you’ve been watching my twitter feed, you’ve already had a glimpse of this.

Here’s what you can expect in the next release, which should be available by the end of this month:

1. Ability to edit most properties of certain objects (image props and interaction hotspots). More objects and properties will be added in later releases
2. Ability to delete objects in a scene
3. A fix for simple imagesheets not being usable by image props

P/s:

• I’ll start to seriously address the lack of documentation after the upcoming beta 2 release.
• The first Solar2D game jam since rebranding from Corona SDK is coming up soon. Join in, tell your friends! ;)
