I know I am not the only one who has brought games in the Steam Xmas sales, my community page attests to that. I have probably spent about $50+ in it so far, and I wouldn't of spent and money it if there was not a sales on.

Even if the sale was not on, I think I would of brought the games at the price points advertised. I am hoping Valve will release sales figures again on the sales like they did last year. I hope again they are interesting and help to drive the point that video games are too expensive. I still believe that games should be a mass quantity, rather than a cost quantity.

So I have been working on a simple 2D stick figure animation software that I have called Stickure.

Currently it doesn't do very much. You can select, rotate, squash and stretch bones. Move the whole bone rig around. This is all done with a simple key frame animation system.

It requires .Net Framework 2.0 and the latest DirectX Runtime So if it fails to run for you download those, if it still does not work it would be great if you could report back to me the error., Download it here.

And here is a dodgy screenshot:

And a video showing it working.
