Great morning read!

The Freedom Engine is a brilliant idea. I've never heard of Cloud development like that before except for 'in-game' style developments. I'm looking forward to trying it out.

Hi Josh,

We had this idea years ago but it was too early then. Now that broadband is almost everywhere the time is right.

I am really looking forward to trying the Freedom Engine.

With many time constraints this could be the perfect tool for me to finally have a go at mobile app development. I intend to try out AppGameKit but have not so far due to other commitments, Freedom Engines accessibility may be just what I needed. It's terrible the way I want everything served up on a plate, hassle free

It also seems like the perfect tool to introduce a couple of my nephews to programming.

Great work TGC, very excited about this one.

With FDE [As I prefer the TLAs instilled upon me since I joined here >.<] thanks to AppGameKit becomming 3D soon, and without additional cost, I welcome FDE with open eyes...

It was also a very nice read, a couple of days late but that can be forgiven [Down boys, down... no shooting today >.<]

I think once DBE is out perhaps the forum can be looked at?

As well as that I can not wait to put AppGameKit to the test and make my first mobile based / cross platform app, although my primary market is Windows...

looking forward to the next action [thanks to IDF 2012] packed issue of the fabled TGC Newsletters, well done Vink

I have some projects which I hope will make it into fourth coming issues, I love this community

Sergey (and all), you need to email me if you have something that is worth publishing. You have some good stuff, as I reported last month.

I don't sleep, eat or have a life. I have 3 children and as far as I know, it is not classed as slave labour if you own them. Plus, it's easy when you enjoy it.

Waiting for FE to be released. Won't be at the house for the next couple days, so will give me some time to try this baby out.

Ooops, typo

If you want to tell the world a bit more about your isometric tile editor, you are welcome to write an article about it and submit it. I'll even spell your forum name correctly

Maybe once I have more developed, but at this time I don't think there's a whole lot to say.
