Lassie Shepherd v1.2 released

If you visit the Lassie Shepherd downloads page, you’ll find that a v1.2 application bundle has been posted. This new version includes several miscellaneous features that I’ve added while polishing up Stitch, including custom item-on-object contextual titles, a “Continue Game” menu feature, an EULA menu screen, and cross-domain security permissions. Lots of good stuff, although nothing that you’ll probably write home about.

However, there is one small but significant item that I think our community will really appreciate… I’ve removed the watermark. It’s gone. Your game will be pristine and unobstructed. The watermark just wasn’t doing the job I originally intended it to do, so I took it out. I was hoping the watermark would serve as a friendly reminder for developers to send me a link to their project in exchange for a free license key (I get a kick out of seeing people’s creative work!). HOWEVER, it seems I’ve been asking too much. I’ve still only given out a single license key, despite having offered free keys to other developers in exchange for a link to their projects. So, the system has not been bringing in links to third-party projects the way I hoped – it’s just been sending cheesy-looking branded Lassie games out into the world. So, I’ll give up my cause, with just one more plea: if you build something with Lassie, PLEASE just tell us about it! There are many folks around the Lassie community who are interested in what the engine is doing. Show your stuff off, please! Send us a link!
