Hi PunMaster. I saw the youtube video and I'm extremely impressed. If I get some time over the summer, I'd love to develop an app with your engine. Keep up the good work! One complaint about the demo though; I'm unable to use it because I do not have a mouse or keyboard :( --[[User:Arikado|Arikado]] 14:04, 1 February 2009 (UTC) | Hi PunMaster.

Although the full source-code is still safely curled up next to my private documents, I don't want all of the things I am learning while coding this project to go unknown to the rest of the world. Likewise, I have created a section here for people to ask about the technical aspects of FiSSION. If FiSSION does something you would like to know how to do, or you are having trouble replicating some of FiSSION's functionality in your own code, I should be able to point you in the right direction. Just be patient. Responding to a ton of in-depth questions will take some time. :) --[[User:PunMaster|PunMaster]] 08:07, 1 February 2009 (UTC) | Although the full source-code is still safely curled up next to my private documents, I don't want all of the things I am learning while coding this project to go unknown to the rest of the world.

General Discussion
I look forward to seeing the results of this project. How about hosting it @ code.google.com/p/ (or somewhere similar) so others can see your source and perhaps contribute? --Pinecone 23:36, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your interest. I plan on releasing things as often as possible, so as soon as I have something worth presenting, I will have a demo available for all to play with. I know this project will ultimately be open-source, but I'm still not sure if I want to release the source for the early demo builds right away. Either way, there's plenty of room for people to help, either by sharing ideas or answering questions / solving problems (see user page). :) --PunMaster 06:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
Hi! Good work, I like the look of this should open things up to some really good homebrew in the (near) future --JustWoody 17:57, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
Wow, the project looks really good! I would love to test! Anyone else who wants to test should comment here. --Rsrockerz 03:13, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
- The demo is out! That means everybody can try it out now. :) Have fun. --PunMaster 04:08, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Re: the updates, "Hi." The video is impressive, I'd love to test it too. --AerialX 19:06, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
Wow, that's really impressive. (Personally I'd pull the youtube video down as the divx video makes you work look much better). Great work with the documentation too. If the point comes where you decide to make it open source that is going to be very handy for everyone else. I am looking forward to testing out your preview app on my Wii when I get the chance.

- I agree that the YouTube video quality is pitiful at best. Unfortunately, I fear that many people would overlook the project if they didn't get the see-something-working-in-under-three-seconds convenience of the YouTube version. I can only hope that those who find the low-quality video interesting will also take a look at the good version and the actual application. As for the source, I simply don't have time to manage an open-source project right now. Sorry. --PunMaster 08:07, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
