  • Tom After I ate construct 2 from my computer(jk) <img src="smileys/smiley9.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> , I got an idea!

    What if Scirra could make some part of the website entirely HTML5? It would be a grand! This way you could show people how html5 is the future. You could also give some preview of what can HTML5 do! Then you can add something like a small info at the bottom of a page saying This page is entirely HTML5! <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • I have to say I love the green-blue lime colour feel. The fonts bring out a sense of humour just like the old theme tittle font. It really feels like Scirra. The colours really suits Tom's personality. It would be amazing if construct 2's theme would be the same as the website. Just an idea, what do you think Tom?

  • I've been searching for this like a month! I'm freaking out XD

    Is it just plain luck to meet her or she is always there on some link just for us to find her? OO

  • Thx for the reply. But what I meant is, the blocks are solids that build the platform of the maps. Where a player must maneuver its way through the blocks and reach an exit gate safely somewhere in the map. The rooms are like chambers build with different pattern blocks and are all connected to each other. Something like Spelunky maps. I hope someone would come up with a method to reproduce that kind of mechanics. I'm still new to game development so bare with me. Thanks again!

  • I never played that game but it looks amazingly fun. The jump u mean roll to a side? If you mean by simple jump, try increasing the gravity and the jump strength.The player roll action should be able to perform through animations. One more thing, does the crosshair scroll with the player move? It's pretty hard to aim and move at the same time D: Unless you split it to different keys. I don't know, never played it. Hope you can bring back other people's childhood memories.

    *btw, I like the bullets how they fire and disappear.

  • Hi, I'm still new to this Construct 2 and I have some questions for it. I hope you guys can help me out. Like the title says, I wanted to build a platform game that generates a random map out of pre-made rooms. for example, a map can fit 12 rooms with each room consist of 36 blocks. Some blocks are empty and some are solid blocks, so that the player can navigate through the pre-made rooms rather than simply generate random blocks all over the map. The thing is, I'm not very expert in arrays and random generations. I tried many ways I can to make the map generate from my custom pre-made rooms but fail. Please give me some idea or example with it. Thanks!

    <font color=lime green>*If this works, It would work on many different kinds of games!</font>

  • I find that objects are hard to place when u can't adjust their position either front or back. There isn't an object layer under a layout. The option I can find is Send to TOP of layer or BOTTOM. If I could arrange through a Z order object Layout under a Layer (like the object window) it would be awesome! This way I don't need to keep sending objects tot eh TOP and BOTTOM. You may say why not just make lots of layer for all the objects, but it doesn't work that way! Any help? <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> THX!! <img src="smileys/smiley10.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • Oh, I love Nitrome games :D It's physics. You can tell by its look.

    It looks somewhat like an object with liquid fillings in it. Perhaps try using joints in physics? Hope someone could figure it out for you. All the best :D

  • Try Construct 3

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

  • But for those who are new to the world of Game Development, it is hardly for them to find the appropriate person for their projects. So, this is where Construct Store comes in to give suggestion or recommendation on these people who develop musics for game developers. Different music developers suits different people too. So, not only Construct Site should add more musicians but to find the right one and of course specialize in different genre. Still, like what Tokinsom said, its also impractical. Unless Mr.Matt Oglesby could come out with different genre musics and SE. Then, it would be wonderful. Rather than just Funky musics for sale. Well its good to see RPG chiptune on the store but still, I have no reason to purchase that either.

  • Yes. THX <img src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> Even though I'm new to the variables but I learn so much after playing around it. That just open a new door of possibilities for me.   <img src="smileys/smiley10.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley10.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley10.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • Can you give a easier step for a beginner like me? :/

    Just want to make like when [Actor] overlapped with an [object 01], camera zoom out (so that the [Actor] could see the whole map around it) then, when [Actor] goes away from the [object 01], it zoom back to screen size. Should I make another object around [object 01] to make a condition to zoom back to screen? how?

  • It would be awesome If SCIRRA Store sells pre-order music from Matt Oglesby. Where you can order any kind of ambient sounds, sound effects, BGM etc. I find the free musics and sound(including the purchased) useless. Not to say that the music is bad(its Grand) but Games that are going commercial are most likely to have its own theme song, music, sound FX, etc. A great example like Angry Birds. It has its own theme song and musics/sound FX. I think by including this service in the SCIRRA Store would certainly increase the amount of consumers and orders. But of course, the free bundle assets are not completely useless ,its more suitable for the first try-out users. Where they can just add the music/sound FX in there game. You don't expect them to sell their games using those free bundle assets. Anyone agrees with me?   :)

  • I don't think it's the firewall problem. (But I still did what the tutorial tells me on page 2). The exit error, so far no error but my other laptop has it once.(r99) Still confuse why does my PC doesn't work on previewing http. I don't think its the construct 2 problem. There is something going on on my PC...My PC is clean and healthy. It works last time but not anymore so there must be a reason. Maybe I will try re-formatting my PC but now I would like to stay in search for the root before I reformat my PC so that I could help solve it in case others may have this issue. Can you give me some possibility of anything that would relate to this problem? I would like to see Construct 2 improve and shine :D

    P.S. Why can't free users try Preview-On-LAN? Can't you release it for free? Perhaps letting me try if it works? I'm planning to purchase construct 2 (Business edition )after I got an agreement with a company on my new game project. cheers

  • No. Now, even the file preview was removed, I can't even test anything.I tried using other PC's of mine. It works wonderfully but not on this PC. I check for ALL possible software that has to do with a server port and I uninstall most of them. Still I can't find the root of this problem on this PC. Perhaps I should discard this one and use a new PC. Thanks for the fast update. I appreciate it! THX Ashley.

    p.s. sry for the avatar. Thought could use the logo but I changed it to my own logo.
