I appreciate the offer!, though I suspect you have enough on your plate as a dev for the type of testing actually needed. I pretty much have device-testing covered, at least for android. It’s play-testing (difficulty-progression, cost-balancing, etc) that could use feedback, but is more “work” for the tester.

fire-colored fonts are still cool, right?
old skool!
I do love a vertical shooter so I would so fit a bit of testing into my complicated work schedule.

I love reading your blog posts Dave, I just got into Corona and they’re really helping me out. Please keep writing more
Thanks for that! I really enjoy your blog and video and Nick is awesome too!
Hey, I’ve got a question. Why don’t you use the extra dash method for coding out blocks of your code? It seems like it would save you a few seconds here and there - many times over.

no reason, that “hacking session” was real-time unrehearsed, no effort to try and make it look “efficient” - set up the code, comment it out, roll camera.
(i don’t routinely block-comment repeatedly, so no “habit” came to the rescue either - i’d be fine accepting last-place in a speed-block-commenting competition. :D)
Thanks! :) I do hope to get back to it, but available time has been rare lately…
I do a massive amount of coding out and I’m sure I’d still place poorly in a speed-block-commenting competition :) Dude, as fast as you think and type and delete ( 
) , I’m sure you’d be far from last!
I love that you involve your son in the programming process. I do the same with my kids and I’m sharing your and Nick’s video with my daughter for inspiration. My daughter (10) is learning Java to mod MineCraft. She uses Youth Digitalwhich makes programming fun but doesn’t dumb it down. Maybe something your son would like in addition to his Corona adventures. Hey, in a couple of years our kids might be submitting to the game jams!
Thanks again for sharing your adventures with the rest of us. Programming can become isolating at times but your posts remind us that we do belong to a community of fellow code adventurers.
Most editors have a short cut (ctrl-/ in vscode and sublime or ctrl-k-c/ctrl-k-u in visual studio) to comment and uncomment blocks of code. Once you get used to doing that it becomes lightning fast - no need to backspace anything
@mmihajlovic, Haha! I have a digital Sublime optimization book. . . now I just need to read it 
@davebollinger, if you need any play testers, let me know. I’m volunteering my kids.
