  • Assuming you're using the platform behaviour just create a normal destroy on collision event and add the conditional "isFalling".

  • Slowly... an idea begins to form...

  • We're finally up and running with SVN, when the jam starts we'll likely have a thread here for more substantial updates.

  • I think I know what the problem is - I'll send a request to other Tobyej (Y)

  • Synced to SVN and added who I assumed is you on Skype (The search for tobyej returned two results)- currently updating C2 to the Beta version.

    Will we need LD accounts?

  • So you did! I always assumed PMs brought up the same notification as tags!

  • Tobye

    Could I have the SVN password please?

  • Very nice game! Always fun to see C2 games doing well on the market!

    The gameplay is very similar to the iOS game Flow - though I'm unsure if even that was the originator of this genre.

  • December 13th to 16th? I'd be up for that - happy to help out if you need it :D

  • An easy to do it would be to load your events with the score or time elapsed as a conditional.

  • I'd imagine the person you bought it from would be more than happy to add the events in.

  • Very interesting work! If you've got the time please me in your next update so I don't miss out :D

  • I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy

    Oh no wait it will be easy... My bad!

    When you say walk/run do you mean one walk animation and one run animation or simply a movement anim?

    And what style of run would you like? Video-gamey (Like Mario) or realistic, with arms and legs crossing over?

    Needless to say I'll have a go :)

  • How long is a piece of string?

    There are nearly a limitless number of variables to consider...

    Is game development your sole occupation? (Though the fact your asking about rates implies you're not)

    What's the game? (A single level of Tetris is far more valuable than a single level of Mario)

    Who's the client? (Rich entrepreneur or a idealistic student living on noodles?)

    What platform is it for? Is it multi-plat?

    Do you need to purchase additional assets/expenses? (Sound effects/music, developer licenses, testing hardware)

    What's your experience level? (A 10 year vet will have a much better wage than year old freelancer)

    ...And just off the top of my head...

    A good rule of thumb is:

    Business costs + personal costs / hours billable = Break even rate

    Then simply mark-up that figure at your leisure.

  • Hmmm that's a bit trickier but I think it's doable.

    Create a variable called "URLis".

    Create a system event every tick - choose "Set value" for the action:

    Set the value of URLis to the appropriate Browser object expression (i.e domain, path or hash - hash seems like a good bet here).

    From here you can call events with the conditional of the URLis value, such as displaying buttons.

    That's my best bet; all of this is from memory so I'm sorry if it's off - Let me know how you get on!
