Early work on the Board Game functionality.[/highlight]
I've started work on a universal board-drawing function that should hopefully allow me to add a number of different board games into Shoebox.

The complexities are numerous, including figuring out quick and easy ways to zoom in and out of the board, and trying to decide on ways that I can ensure all games end up looking as nice as they can whilst all using the same universal DrawBoard() function.

Tricky!

And top of the list is the realisation that I initially removed multi-touch from the engine because "I wouldn't need it"..
D'oh!



Lots of work to be done to get this all up and running, so it'll probably take a number of days before I attempt a proper release. Apologies for that, but it should be worth it for all the Shoebox opportunities that it opens up.
