  • In my game (the one in my signature) I also have lots of weapons and you can shoot left and right. The way I did it is that the player has a variable called "direction", and when he faces right direction is 1, and left is -1. Bullets also have this variable, and it sets if it is mirrored or not

    The weapons all move based on math, so no behaviors. And instead of setting its angle, I use a variable to tell the angle of the weapon movement.

    Example:

  • Ah, you just need to fix the collision polygon on the "player" object. The two points on the bottom are 1-2 pixels from the very bottom of the sprite

  • 8-bit cannon

  • Awesome, love the artwork, nice and vibrant...

    Sure I've seen that octopus boss somewhere before??

    When can we play it?...

    Maybe you saw it here

    I don't have an estimate for an alpha :/

  • You're rotating the whip and since its origin is not centered on the image of the whip itself, it rotates off center. You should use the action "mirror" to flip things from right to left. The knife is properly centered so you don't notice that it rotated.

    I don't see the character inside the floor here

  • Check this other topic with a similar question that I answered recently: How do I stop an animation from overriding other user input?

  • Give it the bullet behavior so it moves, and a fade behavior so it disappears after a set time

  • Reduce the period. Period is how long it takes to do 1 full cycle, so a smaller period will make it faster

  • Not a bug, that happens because negative speed doesn't exist for the bullet behavior. So instead it inverses the angle of motion.

    You should use angles to do what you're aiming to do

  • r2cvv Right click the link and choose "save link as"

  • What's swap movement?

  • If you set the 3 first values of the ReplaceColor correctly, and Tolerance is 1, yes it should replace every pixel of that one color entirely.

    If you're saving your image as a jpeg than compression is the problem

    Story

    A group of robots is infected by a powerful virus that causes them to go mayhem! The blame is put on you, Copy, and now it's your job to capture them and stop the virus.

    Gameplay

    Copy Girl follows the base mechanics of a Mega Man game, while innovating whenever possible.

    There are 8 levels and bosses, and you get a new weapon from defeating each boss.

    Bosses, Levels and Weapons

    Located in an old chemical plant, Stain's guided by some kind of twisted perception of beauty. His paint smells like trouble, so be careful.

    His weapon:

    Ink Bubble: Fires corrosive blobs of paint that bounce on walls, reaching into every nook and cranny.

    Fuze has taken a big chunk of the city as her own domain. Now the highways aren't safe anymore, as she and her gang ride at full throttle, blasting their music for anyone crazy enough to come near.

    Her weapon:

    Sound Barrier: Creates a sound wave that echoes off obstacles, increasing in power.

    A precious girl that appears to be very shy. She commands the creatures of the ocean, so it's better not to provoke her.

    Her weapon:

    Penta Pearl: Forms a rotating shield of pearls around you. It can be activated to reach targets in every direction.

    Little information is know on the other 5 bosses

    Goals

    You know what? I like retro games, and I like Mega Man (can you tell?) So I decided to make a Mega Man clone.

    My intention is to take what was fun in those games (solid platforming and unique weapons) and improve it... according to what I think is an improvement! And this is:

    • Weapons are cool - All weapons will be useful in a number of situations, and the player can play around with them to overcome challenges.
    • No boss weakness - One of the things that sold Mega Man back then was the possibility to play any level in any order. Sounds great! But when comes down to it, it creates an underlying optimal order if you want to actually beat the boss. Having the optimal weapon created a huge difficulty drop. Here you'll choose the weapon based on your own strategy and on observing the boss' patterns. No weapon is required, but instead create a new way to approach the boss.
    • Exploration - Secret areas and different paths will contain many awesome collectibles, such as weapon upgrades and health increasing capsules. Playing levels in different order can open different paths, revealing new challenges.
    • Going fast - The game will have a number of challenge levels, where you can earn more in-game currency.
    • And more - !

  • Problem Description

    Suddenly my game starts reporting an error when I try to preview. Checking the Chrome console, it says its missing "loading-logo.png".

    Then I check the project and all the default images inside the "Icons" folder are empty (I open them and there's nothing). I save the project and try again, and now it works and the images are there again.

    But now when I try to save again I get this error window:

    ---------------------------
Construct 2 Check failure

Check failure!  This is probably a bug:

I closed the project without saving and closed C2. Reopen it, and on the top of the "recent files" list is the autosave. I try opening it and it says "document is empty"

Luckly the original file is fine after all of this.

It's the second time this has happened since version 164+
