  • It's true nobody has really finished any games yet, and that's probably also because while we're in beta emphasis is on developing Construct - fixing bugs, reporting issues, coming up with feature ideas and such, and as Rich pointed out there are known file corruption bugs we still need to fix.

    An opinion about MMF2 is the opinion of an individual. How is that a problem with Scirra or the Construct program? It's not. It's certainly not my opinion, and I doubt it's the opinion of the majority of people here. So please - don't upset yourself by generalising the opinions of a single person to an entire site! I don't think anybody's even explicitly said that.

    I don't think everyone on this site is like that! I was talking to that one guy, and the reason I get upset about people saying that gotw games on TDC can't compare to these tech demos, is that people put a lot of hard work into those games. Then just becuase you use construct so now you have all these effects you can do, it makes them crap? Some better wording could be used there IMO.

  • Just to let you all know, games made in Construct are completely welcome at The Daily Click, and are even eligible for the GOTW award. I'm not sure who ever said "Construct games don't qualify for GOTW", but I can assure you that they do.

    We'd love to see some more Construct games over at the DC - I'm not sure whether that'll happen until Construct reaches version 1.0 and is not longer beta, but I'm hoping we'll see some awesome creations soon.

    I also don't think the competition between Construct and MMF2 is a bad thing - at the end of the day, game makers have more choice and that can only be a good thing. I'm still getting my teeth into Construct and trying to figure things out (still can't figure out how to create animated sprites.. I'm probably just being stupid..).

    Anyway, please don't feel that you have to create a new DC for Construct, because TDC will support all game creators. And a big thanks to Scirra for their recent donation to TDC, it's really appreciated

    Yes, would like to see some construct games on TDC, and I wouldn't rate it 0 stars either. The only problem I have with construct is coming here and seeing, "zomg mmf2 is crap" and whatnot. I'm sorry about my earlier rant also, I shouldn't get upset about something this stupid.

  • I only just found the program a few days ago, as opposed to the years and years and years of click products experience I had I am very new at construct. However I'm working on a little something now and I'll be happy to post it up when its done.

    I think you also forget that alot of the Klik games have been in production for a VERY long time. Its not that people havn't bothered to make games its that they aren't finished :O

    Anyway I'm not in for an argument war I have games to make! And thanks for clearing that up Rikus as I said I never wanted to start a fight, it just seems that the moment you mention Construct everyone thinks you are a witch and need to burn you.

    I never thought a game making program could have fanboys though? It appears you can have fanboys of everything

    Also codemonkey whats your real problem with Construct? Is it that everyone else who hasnt tried it and refuses to try it on TDC hates it? Monkey see Monkey do hey?

    My problem is people like you. "tech demos are better them 90% of the

    crap that comes from the daily click." It's comments like those that set me off. And shut up about the stupid monkey see crap. I was very open to construct if you look at my earier posts, but the "community" is not active, the program is unstable, no one has bothered to make a real game yet. Also about klik games being in productions for a long time, people can make some simple fun games in a few days even. Something I haven't seen come out of this place yet.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Half of the Construct Tech demos I have seen here are well more worthy than some of the previous GOTWs haha and they are only TECH DEMOS!

    I'm really amped about this program! Still messing around with it atm going to make a few small games that I can atleast finish. Looking forward to v1.0 of Construct.

    Its time to finish some games so we can showcase the program guys!

    CONSTRUCTICONS ROLL OUT!

    OH quite funny! Tech demos, why yes! Because A tech demo is better then a game? NO. All this construct program seems to be is a showcase of all the so-called "tech demos". Has anyone bothered to make a full fledged game with construct? NO. GOTW on tdc beats your ghost shooter anyday. yes, let's play the "It's still a beta" card!

  • Agreed.

  • Yay it works! Thanks Ashley

  • I'm trying to make an instant hit, rotating laser. If it's not possible to make it instant hit, it should be very fast. Here is a picture oof what I mean... <img src="http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk182/codemonkeyaaaa/laser.jpg"> Anyone know how I can do this?

  • Ok it's working but... how do I get it to loop?

  • I'm having some trouble playing some music...

  • I remember seeing this on klikcast! Can't wait for it to come out!

  • Alright I got it working. thanks!

  • Okay thanks! I'll be sure be come here alot. Lol I can't figure out how to animate a sprite!

  • Awesome!

  • I found a forum about this on The Daily Click, and I have to say, it's pretty impressive. It was easy to use because it felt alot like MMF2, and I liked how easy the phisics were. The interface was also very nice. By the way, is the final version of Construct going to be free?
