  @IBwWG hmm, that's strange. I'm not noticing any difference when going back and forth between fullscreen/windowed (I'm base 1920x1080 downscaled to 1280x720 windowed, then 1920x1200 on fullscreen since I'm on a 16:10 monitor)

  WOW! They’ve put together the HaxeFlixel runtime for Overlap2d in just three days, that's impressive. I’m definitely trying it out, I’ll post here my experiences, thanks @starry-abyss.

  Thanks for the list of development tools @IBwWG, so HaxeFlixel uses the the OpenFL API, thanks for the info.

  Note that inline only works for basic types. You can use (default, null) (read-only outside of this class) properties for the rest.

  Nice catch, actually that code is mostly copied from the demos, they had it like that. But didnt solve it.

  So far I can say that I'm doing something wrong on the filter, or maybe you can't put filters on drawed stuff (can someone confirm this)

  I did a simple update with:
  fill(FlxColor.TRANSPARENT);
  drawLine(30, cy++, 300, 200, { thickness: 2, color: FlxColor.WHITE } );
  Works like a charm, I get a moving line.

  BUT when I activate the filter, nromal, without any updates, the line never updates and all animations stop. So something is broken in the update of my filtered sprite.

  I only want to achieve an animated glowing of a drawed line (animated or static, doesnt matter). If anyone can point me in the right direction would be appreciated

  The way I do my GUI stuff is point it at a far distance from the real game where I know I'm never gonna go (say, -5000, -5000) and put all my GUI elements there

  This way I don't have to set cameras for each object individually.

  Looks interesting. My goal is to get a HaxeFlixel game out on consoles some time in the future so I will bookmark this.

  I spotted this under the HF repos today, I think it is a great idea and will eventually make HF even better than it already is.

  Will all the feature requests be treated equally or will the funders of half the total be given priority for what they want?

  @starry-abyss

  Thanks. I'll have a look at that, I'm not familiar with it. Right now I'm using one tilemap for the barriers and I have a multi-dimensional array of the tile indexes that I populated in my create() function. Then I have a loop to toggle them on/off. There's only a few tiles in each barrier.

  Well, same words and feeling here :two_hearts: .

  Without having to resort to Unity, XNA or Cocos2D (which need some long learning and things that are framework specific) you are pretty much screwed, as there aren't much libraries that are this friendly and free, like HaxeFlixel. The good thing about it, is how what you learn carries over to other languages, and also, what you already know from your days from AS3 and Flash, can be easily used here.

  Prototyping is absolutely fast and they managed to do a great work on documentation, and covering all aspects that are game oriented. My only complain, (but this comes from someone saw how HaxeFlixel evolved through the years) was the code breaking changes. But this isn't a problem for people today and problably won't be anymore, since the library now is mature enough to cope with anything.

  Anyone can help back by contributing or donating! If you have no money or patience for bug solve, the forums are also, a great place to help people in need.

  So, thanks to everyone that makes Haxeflixel possible, you rock! :bow_tone1:

  Don't know about .jar, but if you compile on Windows for 'mac' target, you get .app folder with the game. Note, it's not hxcpp, it's neko-based.

  There's an arrow which can be used for dragging editor up and down. And it doesn't even pop up in mobile.
