  See also the example combining 2D & 3D layers.

  stricky: in Chrome visit chrome://gpu to see the status of GPU rendering. That should tell you the actual status for your system. Otherwise all anyone can do is guess.

  It would probably be easier to do by adding a CSS file, giving the button a class, and then adding a hover style for that class to the CSS file.

  Use hardware acceleration when available should be enabled by default. Perhaps you went and changed your settings and turned it off a while back and forgot about it? Chrome will be much slower all round if that option is turned off, especially for games.

  I'm pretty sure this all comes down to broken GPU drivers causing fallback to software rendering. In Chrome visit chrome://gpu to see the status of GPU rendering. WebGL should say "hardware accelerated".

  If you use AJAX to post binary data to the server, then the server will receive all the binary data with the request. Nothing is encrypted or needs decrypting, it just sends the raw data.

  Reading POST data server-side is out of scope of this forum really, it's just a general server coding topic. Sites like StackOverflow are probably a better place for that kind of question.

  I think that's just how browsers apply CSS to progress bars. If you want a completely custom appearance, use a different object like a Tiled Background instead.

  when the player is on screen, play this file.

  This sounds like a common mistake where the event is constantly true, so constantly plays the sound. Make sure the event only plays the sound once.

  Try changing the "accent-color" property to "red".

  This sounds a lot like your device has broken or out-of-date graphics drivers. Browsers will use software rendering which is slow but avoids crashing. NW.js exports force GPU accelerated rendering, but that means you're then subject to the broken drivers which can crash or glitch.

  Virtually all modern devices should be fine. I'd guess you're on some pretty old hardware, or your software is years out of date.

  Construct has extensive support for mobile, desktop and web games.

  If you mean a desktop game you can download and run locally, then yes, that too.

  We do not intend to introduce any lifetime plans for Construct 3.

  Closing this thread as it has been discussed extensively in the past and this was also a bump of a 5 month old thread.

  It's possible by using AJAX to post binary data.

  That code does not appear to be part of Construct - presumably it's part of your own script. It looks like it has some kind of mistake in it which means Closure Compiler can't parse it.
