Experiences of test-driven devleopment in large projects "if you only have a few in the team who want to go old school, won't everyone suffer?" -- Are you saying TDD is old-school? If not I'm not understanding the sentence. |

Why the shareware (not demo) model died? The shareware model was very successful for good games and software. But there was a huge influx of terrible games and software which gave shareware a bad name. The idea is still in use today but we don't call it that way anymore, and it has transformed from "one episode free" to microtransations and PDLC. |

Tilemap-based level editor wishlist Plug-In Editors rule. Besides what you said, if a plugin is broken, you can just disable it instead of having the Editor crash or do other unwanted stuff. |

Tilemap-based level editor wishlist Just a tip: check out the existing Tilemap editors. Tiled, Mappy and a few others. Something they all have is something you're very likely going to need in your own editor. |

What tools do you use for 2D art/sprite creation? I vote on Pro-Motion. I'm not an artist but those I worked with 10 years ago swear by it. It has a steep learning curve but it's the closest you get (and actually surpasses) the good old DPaint. |
