I can't find anywhere where the actual license is specified. All I could see was that it was "open source". Any way we could get an actual license? (Preferrably as a LICENSE file in the github repo).
Actually, I'd also be in favor of making a hardcore stash per hardcore save slot that gets deleted when the character dies. That way, you can't just find a Ring of Invincibility or whatnot in the main game and transfer it over to your hardcore character.
The hardcore stash would work exactly the same as it currently does, it would just be limited to that save only.
@Buch: I'm quite happy with the style here. Like I said above, I'd be happy to commission a nice extension to this set. Feel free to contact me through PM or email at your convenience.
This may sound silly, but I've obviously had this set on my mind lately... I had a dream about it last night. ;)
@Wesleybruce: That's standard in the LPC spritesheet, AFAIK. If the walk animation was face-sensitive, it would make the standard swing action look wrong.
@Buch: Yeah, I wasn't quite sure what people wanted from the keybindings... I just made it so the left key fired the left engines. Really, it will be completely customizable as you build your ship in the future.
Right now if you change the bindings, the (quite stupid) AI will go crazy, but I'll fix that first. It's good to have a second opinion to show the usability issues I've missed.
The target tile size is quite small actually, I forgot to tell you, but the mouse scroll wheel will zoom in and out on the ship. Try putting your tiles in as replacements (maybe I'll make a branch for your tiles. As soon as they look great, I'll merge it into master) and see what they look like at various sizes. It's not even that they look bad small, it's that they lose quality when small AND rotated in-game.
I'm looking at your new tiles and really like them... it's making me want to figure out a way to have multiple sizes of blocks. I'm just afraid it will make things more complex than they need to be. I'll look into it; maybe it's not as hard as I think...
Also, any thoughts on stars, etc. in the background? I was considering procedurally generating those.

Looks like the download just returns a blank page... I seem to recall it working before, though. :/
Well put, Bart. It's sad that this article had to be written, but I'm glad you did.
Also note that in the lastest master, there's a new "stealth" power in mainline Flare that uses the transform power.

I added these in to the master branch and they look great!

Okay, I fixed the ships and AI to use somewhat saner keybindings :)
