Hi
Not really a hardcore minded tool but could be of general interest, might be useful for prototyping.

Ha! Whoever is managing the space on Popfly is using graphics from Lost Garden (http://www.lostgarden.com/)! The "Play with your peas" graphics are available in a game template "Kill the Peas". Brilliant!

As apposed to working I've been playing with this today and while it's very light-weight it's actually quite fun. It's the kind of thing that would be cool to see in http://www.greatgamesexperiment.com/ and I'd definitely like to see a collaboration between the two.

My gut feeling is that this was built with a lot of listening and taking advise from the gamedev community because the events, access to code snippets and especially the access to free resources is well thought out and implemented.

I'd encourage everyone here to give it a try and give your opinion.
