It is a very sad day here. It looks like we are locked out of google play development for the foreseeable future, with no way to appeal, or start fresh. We have a working app, and plan to release an apk file you can download to use it, while you still can on android devices.

Umm... The release is gonna be delayed for a bit longer than I hoped... Currently appealing, hang tight!

Welp. Still here waiting for Google to give the green light. The time frame is in their hands. The moment we're approved, we'll go live. And an announcement will be made here.

I'm happy to finally throw out a release date for Doodle Star. September 22nd, the first day of Fall, on the Google play Store. Here's hoping we don't get delayed on Google's end. Hope to see everyone doodling soon! #flipnote #animation #drawing

We've cleared a lot of bureaucratic hurdles and are getting closer to a full release. Doing some final touchups now on a bit of everything. In the next 1-2 weeks, I will try to open private testing to anyone interested. Shoot me a dm if you're on android and you'd like to be an early tester.

Update thread on how developments have been going! #animation #flipnote #art #programming

Wanted to give an update because it's been awhile. Nearing the end of polish now. Currently on track to attempt a release later this month. I'll be wrapping up polish and doing final testing soon. I will also be preparing the app for the Google Play store.

Might put a pause on weekly updates for now, as there's not a lot of interesting things going on with polish. I'll try to make posts when something interesting is happening. This past week: Did some user testing and found out just how horrendous the UX is. Made improvements in that regard, + polish

Progress update: Got through a lot this week. -Added shapes -Several UI improvements -Improved color select -Fixed eraser problems -Fixed gradients double drawing -Experimenting with a lazy brush for smoother lines Key features are now done. Time to polish. #flipnote #art #programming #animation

A few days ago it was raining. Now the sun is made of sun. I miss the rain... Anyways, weekly update! -Adjusted the save feature to include wide formats, square formats, audio, and set fps. -Added brush preview images -Added new icons, and adjusted layout. #flipnote #art #animation #programming

Another week, another progress update. Here's a few things that were added: -Circular and linear gradients -Basic color management -Scale slider for pixel brushes -Merge layers & toggle visibility -Selection & move tool -Invert colors Adjusting UI next week. #flipnote #art #animation #programming

It's been awhile. But I have a progress update! I'm entering the final stages of development for DoodleStar. Tweaking the UI and adding some last minute features. Expecting to release it to Google Play between Summer and Fall of this year. #flipnote #art #animation

Development might be slow while I'm learning Godot, at least I'm running into a lot of fun bugs. #art #flipnote

Updates may be slow as we are transitioning to a new engine. We want to bring free and easy to use animation to as many platforms as we can. Have a sneak peek at a rough mockup!

Animation deserves more respect.
