I can't wait for Adobe AIR to get a new version of WebKit with lots of goodies. :-) Lim,

Never notice that change between beta versions of AIR and AIR 1.0. A weird change as well. Thanks :) Robert,

I guess it's a matter of that version of WebKit there is in Adobe AIR 1.0. This, however, does work: <code>-khtml-user-select: none</code> Lim,

-webkit-user-select: ignore didn’t work, unfortunately. I guess it’s a matter of that version of WebKit there is in Adobe AIR 1.0.

This, however, does work:

-khtml-user-select: none

Try it out and let me know how it works! :-) OJ, Ha ha! Well, pretty true for the moment. I'm sure they'll work on that, and I've heard it's mostly related to opacity usage. Harmen, Thanks! And yes, it's an easy way to target all platforms in an easy manner. :-) Andreas,

All-in-all, though, I'd say in the vicinity of 15 hours or so. Lim Chee Aun, Thanks for the tip about the font! I guess I need to think about if I should optimize the boss mode... :-) Georges, I think that sounds good, and I'm glad to hear that you love memory! I'll add some more games/image sets in the next version. :-) Thanks, I’m quite happy with it! :-)
