Custom OUYA Launcher

InvaderGames: Update on the bug I emailed you. It seems that it is not just an issue with ethernet as it happens on wifi too. You got the email after I re-sent it, right?

Also, one suggestion I have is to keep the main menu choices visible when scrolling down. At least for me, I find it a bit annoying to have them disappear as you go down when they're all visible from the first choice.

Yep got the email, altrough I cant replicate it, not even on ethernet.. (wiped settings and all) As far as I can see, it would seems like your connection is a bit poor and doesnt load up correctly during the first load? :S not sure..

main menu; this is more a design choice, kept from the kickstarter vid idea.. I kinda got used to it and I like it.. If I get a better idea (thats both stylish and works) I can change it

hmm, i'll have to look into in then. It's also not on just the first load, it's a consecutive thing. As long as I have a network connection I get the error. I wonder if any of my sideloaded stuff could be interfering.

Oh wow, never noticed that functionality in the video; only really remember the still. I just kinda prefer having all main menu options visible at all times, I find it helps keep track of where you are located when scrolling up and down. Speaking of scrolling up and down, what do you think about adding triggers as a way to navigate the main menu options? I thought about using it for my maybe-only-theoretical dashboard. Back to the UI, I understand wanting to keep it until you find a better solution =) Maybe, for now, leave the menu item just above the current one visible and make it translucent, to help hint that they're currently not at the top?

This is wonderful.
I liked the design of the Kickstarter video, only to be dissapointed to find the menu quite... Horrible.
This is just amazing!
I love you. <3

Its a fantastic project already. You have to wonder what train derailed inside OUYA before retail launch to cause the brain damaged coloring book OUYA UI we have now. Well done. I'll be using this and keeping an eye on the progress.

You might see if you can somehow do a template system or something. We have a lot of talented graphics people here and there is a thread where we had UI mockups being posted for creative fun that were excellent ideas.

I actually like this better then default ouya. keep up the good work.

[InvaderGames]

Triggers. the trigger buttons? yeah totally doable.. wouldnt be my control of choice trough, since its vertical, but I can do it for sure

@Wraith_Vague; I will definately check if I can get some inspiration from there! thanks for the tip!!
Right now a template system would be INCREDIBLY awesome, but damn GMS wouldnt really allow me to do it in a 'simple' way.. actually it wouldbe even simpler to let it open source and let anyone who wants to hack it and try to make mods.. we will see..
PS; they mention the kickstarter mockup a LOT haha

This is something I'v been working on today, remember the flipping tiles animations in the kickstarter mockup? well.. I really liked it..


Its time for sleep now...

Here I had problems, installed, and when I "open" the app it says:

ERROR in
action number 1
of Draw Event

Androidplayer: try disconnecting from the internet and opening the app. if that works, you're having the same issue as me. When you get the error, scroll down and report the rest of the error.

InvaderGames: Yeah something about trigger navigation just sorta appeals to me since it feels so convenient. I'm also planning to use the bumpers (or maybe i'm getting triggers and bumbers confused; I tend to do that), for navigating 'groups'/tabs inside my dashboard screens.

Now the messege is:

Error in action number 1 of drawn event for object playlist_game

Trying to drawn non existing sprit. at gml object playlist game draw 0

sorry for my english, i am brazilian.
