JukeBox - Pro, V1.0 Ready for Release


I've put my head down and put some effort into polishing JukeBox Pro, so that I may get it into your hands as soon as possible. This is just an initial release with some pro features, if you can think of more features that would be cool to have let me know and I will do my best to include them in future releases.

The current feature set is:

  • Custom Dynamic Inspector (based on what you doing)
  • Runtime file loading for user music.
  • Written to support both desktop and phones, loads .ogg/.mp3 depending on the platform.
  • File loading is disabled on consoles.
  • Many small bug fixes and possible speed improvements made
  • All JukeBox Free features are available.
Version: 1.0
Source Code: C#
Unity Version: 3.4.1 Free
Price: $10

It's started to look like 2012 is the year of giving from us, here at Corrupted Smile Studio. Coming this week is a Spawner system for spawning enemies. We have taken a previous released Spawner script that Garth made a couple years ago and done some upgrades and additions.

JukeBox - Pro in the Works

I recently released JukeBox - Free, a week ago, there has been what I would call a fair amount of downloads from the Unity Asset Store for it. I have since decided to work on a pro version that I would charge a little for.

Currently the pro version will include:

  • From folder loading of .ogg/.mp3 (depending on the platform) for user content.
I have been looking into creating an mp3 to ogg converter that will convert all mp3s within a folder to ogg format. I was hoping to be able to run it from within Unity, sadly it would be too slow for that. I have been milling around trying to come up with ideas, I will probably offer it as a separate download that anyone can simply use to convert mp3 to ogg.

If you have more suggestions on what to add/improve for the pro version, comment here and I will see if it would be feasible for me to include it.

1000 Pageviews Approaching

Just thought I would let you guys in on a little something that has been lurking for a little while and that is that this blog is nearly at 1000 pageviews. Which for me is pretty damn good in the fairly short amount of time that it has been live (Since 28 July 2011). So I would just like to thank you for your support over the last 6 months, it has been good. The next 6 will be even better, stay tuned.

JukeBox Free - Version 1.0


While working on Canyon Project, we developed a fairly simple Jukebox like music system that will simply play through a playlist of songs. We have since decided to release this as a free system on Unity's Asset Store.

Version: 1.0
Source Code: C#
Unity Version: 3.4.1 Free
Price: Free

Features:
  • Works with Unity free
  • Can play random songs
  • Can skip forward and backwards
  • Allows a delegate to be called on song change that will display a formatted string of the Artist - Title.
  • Supports volume changes.
  • Automatically plays the next song once a song ends.
We hope someone will have a use for this system.

2012 Plans and Hopes

I thought I should share some plans I (and thus Corrupted Smile Studio) have for 2012 and see how they change throughout the year. As inspired by the Unity forums (forum.unity3d.com/threads/117861-What-are-your-plans-for-2012)
  • Finish Canyon Project
  • Get distinctions for all my university subjects
  • Improve my coding ability.
  • Try work on improving my 3D modelling and texturing.
  • Polish and release the console screen system I've been working on, on Unity's Asset Store
  • Polish and release the simple "jukebox" music system I've been working on Unity's Asset Store
  • Finish the Corrupted Smile Studio Website to help with promotion of the games and tools that I create.
  • Try to finish more smaller games throughout the year.
  • More regular blogging about development and other plans.
This is just a small list and will hopefully grow as the year progresses. This is my first post back after a rather lengthy holiday, so hopefully blogging will become more regular.
