    Interesting. Could this possibly indicate a name change for the software, or just BAU? (BAU = Business As Usual)

    Can't say that I like the new logo much...
  • RHRH Member Posts: 1,079
    I'd definitely prefer that, this one looks a bit... odd.

    Meh, not paying for the logo I guess! Actually, I'm just not paying at all at the moment :)

    I honestly have to say now without a dough that when the update comes it will be taking us out of beta. Just my 2 cents anyways we will see soon. :)

    it makes me wonder if they were aiming for a big release last week and missed it. It seems like a few big changes were announced last week, or made last week.

    Maybe they were and they missed it but I think this next update will be worth the wait. I just hope it stays user friendly I don't like drastic changes.

    Well, I'm sure you'd agree that a million-dollar push better come with the provision that someone will closely allocate the funds and resources needed to bring GameSalad to the next level.

    Seems like there might be some positive news for the company. Found this recent post on an investors-type blog that name drops the new financing the company is securing:

    http://alwayson.goingon.com/AOStory/Revisiting-Paul-Grahams-High-Resolution-Financing

    Quote:

    "Paige Craig, currently the most prolific, under-dressed, and most eligible angel in Los Angeles, sourced a hot, young startup called Gendai Games (makers of GameSalad - a platform for rapid development of mobile games). By “sourced” I mean he: went to SxSW, saw a demo, loved the concept & team, gave them a check while still in Austin, called me & helped get them into Launchpad LA, get a local investor (DFJ Mercury) to commit, shopped the deal to a bunch of LA investors, get the CEO to move to LA and brought on LA seed investors including Disney (through Steamboat) and DFJ Frontier. "

    OMG. This was right in front of us.

    "Something's cooking at GameSalad..."

    Wait.... At GameSalad?

    Wouldn't it be "Something's cooking at Gendai Games"?

    Goes to show you that "put it right in front of them" works. The government (USA) did the same thing with a bunker. (http://www.kilroywashere.org/006-Pages/Bunker.html)

    Haven't been here in a month - what'd I miss? :-O

    (It's basically the same logo design, albiet rendered in 3d instead of 2d)

    "I don't like drastic changes" either... unless they are GOOD -
    Let us hope that this new money will bring us the new features we desire!

    Onward, GS Coders, (and we, the "user coders"! or whatever we are) to Victoly.
