Yesterday I tried out Microsofts new game making program Popfly and completely fell in love with it. It is very user friendly and the coding style is similar to Game Maker. I can make a game in it in 20 miniutes, The only down side is that I can’t import my own images (If you can I would like to know how). You can’t draw your own pictures either. If you want to draw a picture, the only way is via XMAL. Apart from that, Brilliant App!

Hey Henrik
Would it be possible for you and maybe Jaspal to put up a new post in your blog about the XNA Bomberman game and you’re attempt at re-creating Ninja Gaiden in Popfly?
Great work so far.
