Greenworks a node-webkit plugin [STEAMWORKS]

andreyin I can confirm that I do indeed see the overlay when i Shift+Tab... Both fullscreen and windowed.

— Thanks, it's really weird. I'm making some tests right now to check if I did something wrong, but the problem might be that the first layout of the game is a windowed launcher, then the game goes to fullscreen when you begin it.

— how did you do that? My game on Steam doesn't work with overlay.

Hmm i just checked and it seems it only works in OSX... If i try to bring it up in Windows, it doesnt appear... I get the notification just like you mentioned, but Shift+Tab does nothing. Weird that it works in OSX only...

I hope steam support will come soon.

1month soon.

Unless someone can write a custom plugin to handle it? Yes i will pay monies for this.

Even if Greenworks only allows Achievements and Cloud Storage, it would still be of very good use!

Hey Ashley, any news on this?

Now that i think about it, the Steam SDK is written in C++, and that is the problem.

What if, we use Emscripten to port the SDK to JS so we from there on could make a plugin.

Wouldn't that work? Or do i missed something out?

A plugin would be great!

Btw: Did anyone already publish a C2 Game to Steam? Is it possible to add DLC/Ingame purchases to your game?

There is also the Steamworks Web API which allows you to make HTTP calls to do things like:

• Set or retrieve a user's stats, achievements or leaderboard scores
• Execute an in-game purchase (using Steam Wallet)

That might be an option rather than using the Steamworks C++ API, although they are protected methods that require authentication and are intended to be accessed from trusted back-end applications.

There are at least 5 Construct 2 games released on Steam, see here

In-game purchases for games on Steam would most likely require the use of the Steam Wallet, which you need to access via the Steamworks API (either Web or C++).

Node.js 0.11 still hasn't gone stable yet, and as discussed previously the Web API requires that you run a separate server.

Node.js 0.11 still hasn't gone stable yet, and as discussed previously the Web API requires that you run a separate server.

New version of C2 comes with "Updated node-webkit to v0.10.1".

So... any news on that?

No, node.js 0.11 is still not stable.

Workshop Support for GDT - Greenworks updated as well

Seems like they updated their plugin to have workshop integration. High hopes for C2 potential for native steam games once 0.11 is stable.

Thndr That's very good news, thanks for the update!
