I've noticed a dip in sales too, even though my game is roughly in the same position on the Xbox.com Best Selling list. It's the same thing as when ODST came out. Everyone runs off to buy and play it, but things balance out again eventually. Although now that we're entering the holiday release period, this will happen more ...

I need animations in the game I'm working on at the moment, but I'm trying to think how to do it. What I'd like to do is do it like in Flash, where you have keyframes to move, rotate and scale images around (2D animations). A GUI editor to see how things work and arrange things properly, like in Flash. Something where you can ...

I can publish games but you can't buy games in my country (Australia). Thus social networking advertising for me is pretty useless, lol.
