Casino? money? who knows? but the target is the same!
  • I just signed into the Construct Home Page on the website here. Is it just me, or has it gotten a face lift recently? I gotta say, I love it! It does a beautiful job of showing off the latest features of Construct, some of the top projects created using the software, and more.

    Whoever the web designer here is, just want to give you a quick thumbs up! If I wasn't already a fan of Construct, it would definitely push me towards giving it a shot for my next project. The week I switched over, I was able to prototype 10 games using Construct 3, and that's a record for me in any game engine.

    I know I sound like a total fanboy. But, Construct has opened up so many doors for me recently. The homepage is also the first the thing I saw when I signed into my computer this morning XD. Hope everyone is having a fantastic day!

    Keep up the great work Scirra team! Been loving the recent updates to Construct!

  • Thank you! Yes, have been working hard on improving a few pages and adding a new one:

    construct.net/en/make-games/games-editor

    construct.net/en/make-games/free-trial

    construct.net/en/make-games/gamemaker-alternative

    Working on refreshing our homepage at the moment, and then likely will move on to revamping some other parts of the site.

    Glad you appreciate the efforts, each page takes a lot of time (around a weeks work) to implement - is not a quick process!

  • Hey Tom. I didn't catch the "Free Trial", and "GameMaker Alternative" pages earlier. They all look amazing :). Coming from GMS, it's interesting to see the two go head to head in a way, "GMS going subscription based model recently" to try and keep up. Granted they make a lot of regular updates, but I still find it very buggy at times, and hard to track down my own scripting mistakes. An issue I've yet to experience with Construct.

    I still use both, but mostly just Construct at this point. Construct just makes is so easy to implement anything from platforms, to physics, to visual effects(these "effects" take days in GMS) and now 3D is becoming more and more easy, and accessible for newcomers.

    I can tell a lot of time, effort, and work has gone into these web page updates. I'm taking a closer look at them now. No doubt loads of patience, and work to make everything work together, and look so nice :). Not to mention all the recent updates to the Construct 3 application itself!

    I recently migrated all my sites over to a new server(a week ago today), and have spent 20+ hours spread out over a couple days since then, fixing issues. And, my websites are very humble compared to construct.net XD. Nothing like scrolling through lines and lines of PHP, and PHP databases figuring out why I'm locked out of the backend admin panels for no good reason(seems to be the SSL solution the new host uses). In the end they are more secure, so I can't complain. Made my own backdoor, and created an encrypted key only I have stored locally(highly doubt any hacker will figure it out; I know I wouldn't, and ethical hacking is a specialty).

    EDIT: My bad, I meant the New Features page in my first post haha. I'm half asleep this morning.
