  • Oh, I have partially translated Construct in Finnish too ;o What a coincidence! (Seems that we finns are eager translators? :D ) Now it feels like I have done unnecessary work, but whatever, it's nice that we have a translation. I didn't publish mine since it was still incomplete, Construct wasn't as translatable then as now.

    I'm not on my home comp but I'll be cheking your translation :)!

  • Does anyone remember another little flash adventure like this? There is a little creature who does a shipwreck to an alien planet, and then tries to get away from there. It resembles Little Wheel in it's straightforward simple puzzle-like gameplay. The art styles was nice, but especially the sound scape was terrific! I just can recall the game's name... Have you played it?

    Okay, somebody remembered it on IRC, it's called Samorost.

    Enjoy! Oh, ...actually the guy goes to the planet to save his dognapped pet, not by accident.

  • Hey, we could always code our custom function call code in assembly ;o!

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Oh, really :O

    Yeah, you got me, I didn't watch the whole video, I had some things to do and slow connection ;D ...But that's great to hear! I'm really looking forward to this now!

  • I wouldn't call it truly open e-mail-killer solution if it's still a service provided by one company. If there was open protocol so that anywho could create their own wave service which worked with other wave services, I would approve it totally. Currently it's too dubious to have all your personal data in the control of a single enterprise.

    ...however I know that it would be harder to do that way, technically and in other aspects too.

    As a web service, though, it looks promising, or more like incredible.

  • Yeah, I know. And it's not even that hard... I just meant that it would be great if the "canonical" layout file format was so open and easy to use that it would be easy to develop external level editors which would be complatible with counstruct's file format.

  • In future, when we have folder and separate file based file/project formats (you are going to do that for 2.0, right? xml format :)? ) there could be a feature to save a runtime state into xml file - like there's the current save state binary format - and import the object position, rotation, size etc. data to layout editor in edit time, or have simply a XSL sheet based tool which would effectively CONVERT that data into a layout xml file! That way you could position objects runtime and see them in the "wysiwyg" manner, and then have "what you see" as a layout file.

    (Btw. separate xml layout files would allow also runtime layout loading! And that you could make your own level editor, and have it to export xml file, and import in construct's level editor! And and and... many kind of things :D)

  • Did I already tell you that I love you all?! With these news, I'll be happy even if the future builds won't have Spag Bol support. (Those who have been lurking here long enough, may get it ;D)

  • Well, I was celebrating with my IRC friends, we arranged a meeting. We drank, but not too much. (Instead, few weeks ago I drank more than ever; first time in my life I couldn't remember the end of the night :P)

  • No, it wasn't me, if it was, why would I present my own essay as somebody else's ;D

    There's other finns too. (I know you are there, you bastards, since I always lurk here, although I seldom post >;3)

  • Only third page on Google Finland :I But check this:

    https://oa.doria.fi/handle/10024/42982 and https://oa.doria.fi/bitstream/handle/10024/42982/Nevala.Erkka.pdf?sequence=1

    A finnish guy from some university of applied science apparently made an 32-page essay paper about Construct :D "Construct as a tool of game development"

    Actually, that essay serves pretty well as an user manual :D... And it has an english summary too, go ahead and check.

  • They said that 2.0's file format would be xml-based... I wonder if it also means that layouts could be natively exported into separate files and imported in edit-time or even runtime... It would help greatly with this sorts of things, and of course, with collaboration.

  • Christ, talk about cheesy....

    If I want to talk about cheesy, I talk about american comics ;>

  • Hahahaha :DD I see it now. Aren't we Construct users cruel >:D.

  • What :D? Did I say something funny?
