Build 3D games with Construct

Okay, not really 3D per-se. LOL. My challenge is to checkout this tutorial and give it a try in Construct 2! ;)

So, what do you want?

Off-Topic: Firefox just ported Unreal Engine into HTML5! This must mean that soon enough(3 years from now or so) we will have Construct 3D.

Out of curiosity, why go through all the trouble using a 2D game engine to make a 3D game? Why don't you just start with a 3D engine?

Oh people, this is just for fun, lighten up will ya! ;) Besides, I've already built my own 3D engine in the past. I don't need to start with anything. ;)

I thought it was an exceptionally well-written tutorial, and I appreciate the explanation of what goes into translating stored coordinates into a visual 3D representation. Favorited!

Ahh I misread (just like others here I assume) that you were challenging yourself to try it ;p

You're challenging other people? ;) Nice tutorial though, I'm sure it'll help others.

Well, I already did it. I have a working prototype I'll post shortly. ;)

Okay, I have an example game here:

Have fun! :)

JoyfulDreamer

Awesome :)

It's nicely done with C2, i would like to know... Do you think we can rotate in first person?

It does rotate. ;) Press Q or E.

Oh yes, i didn't notice!

It's still awesome, how many hours did you spend for doing that?

JoyfulDreamer That's really impressive, The perspective feels right,and it runs nice and smooth too.

Joannesalfa: Don't ask! LOL

I did the tutorial in a day, and this I started experimenting with since Saturday (on and off). Is it Monday yet? I lost track of time. LOL. ;)

pixel perfick: Thanks. I had thought I could put 1000s of objects in the world, but for some reason, even when sprites are disabled (when out of view [the frustum]), C2 seems to run slow anyway. Hopefully it's just me, but if not, then it would be nice if C2 didn't run slow when only a few sprites are visible, and 1000s exist. ;) I'd love for a C2 developer to download the project, increase the number of trees and grass generated, turn to look at nothing, then check the speed. :)

JoyfulDreamer I did notice severe Framerate drop when I destroyed a few trees at once...

Yeah, too many fire particles. ;) Also, I'm using "on touch", and for some reason, ALL trees behind the touch are selected and not the top most one. Didn't realize that at first, but didn't bother to change it.

The game is only for fun, and to play with 3D concepts, nothing fancy! ;)

In fact, everyone is free to download and create from it whatever they want (commercial or otherwise - all content is created by me [no copyright issues]). :)
