  • On my laptop it still runs at 60fps when the window is maximized, and in full-screen. Must be something with your PC, try updating video drivers. If you are using C3 desktop build - update NWJS.

  • It runs fine at 60fps on my laptop.

  • New Premium Templates are now available on HowToConstructDemos.com! They can be purchased from the Scirra store.

    .

    1. Random Level Generator - now contains 3 demo levels and shows how to build levels from scenes of selected difficulty and make endless runner/jumper games. A free 'lite' version of this template is available for download.

    2. Color Picker and Converter Tool - I've completely reworked this demo, it's now 100% accurate and allows converting between HSV, RGB and HEX formats.

    3. NEW! Multistroke Gesture Recognizer and Recorder - supports single stroke or multi-stroke gestures, allows recording new gestures and adding them permanently to your project.

  • Here is my opinion, but keep it mind that it may be wrong!

    You don't need to set up a company when you publish your first small games. Just be careful not to break any rules (copyright, data collection etc.), otherwise you personally may be liable.

    You do need a Privacy Policy, there are websites that can generate a generic policy for you. And you will need to put it somewhere online, doesn't matter on what website, but the link should be accessible for everybody.

  • 1) Function.Param(0) applies to "dialogue" function. If you call this function with the parameter "John", then the "name" key in the dictionary will be set to "John".

    2) This variable is used to store XML XPath. "&ProjectVariables.Get("name")&"']/@ means add a value from the dictionary to the string. So the result will look like this: 

    /Dialogues/Dialogue[@id='John']/@

    3) It uses Regex to search for something and extract some sub-strings. You can use any of the online regex parsers to try to decipher what's going on there.

    I must say, this tutorial seems unnecessary complicated to me. You can study it, but maybe it would be better to build your own dialogue system.

  • Check out the official Date template. It shows how to calculate the difference between two dates (it's in milliseconds), and display it in readable format.

    Not sure what you mean, the title doesn't say much. Effects can be applied to objects or layers. So you can either re-use the same objects on multiple layouts, or create global layers.

  • I don't, because you didn't post your project file.

    You need to run your game in debug mode and check what objects or events are affecting the FPS.
