  • Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it!

    The instructions have been a challenge, I like your idea of interactive visual cues, may have to look into that! I've gone back and forth on distinctive shapes vs all circles, but something to think about!

    Limitations and obstacles could definitely spice up the gameplay, maybe even offer additional modes to see what is the most fun.

    Thanks again!

  • Hi All,

    I've been tinkering with Construct for years but finally put together my first game!

    It's a daily puzzle game where you try to get all 30 circles in the play area to be the same color in as few moves as possible. When you touch a circle it will change to your selected color and kick off a cascading effect for all circles that matched your selected color and touched in an orthogonal direction. Honestly, it's easier to see in action, so please check it out :)

    You can replay as much as you'd like to try for a better score. You can share your score, which I've found can make the game a little addicting, trying to beat or at least match your friend's score! And if they don't believe your score, you can share the method which will prove how you got it!

    Please visit https://colorthyme.com/ and let me know your thoughts!

    Thanks!!!

  • Thanks fredriksthlm, I appreciate the details & links! I was also hoping it would be in something like the Browser object, but I'll take a look at if it's worth adding it as a javascript event. Thanks again!

  • Thank you fredriksthlm!

    Quick follow-up, anyway to check for this support? So that I can hide the share button when it is off? The "Is sharing supported" check still comes back true in Firefox (at least in my tests).

    Thanks again!

  • Hi, I have the built-in share plugin setup and it's working very well in Chrome on multiple platforms, but I am seeing a strange behavior in Firefox for Android and wanted to check if anyone else in the community is experiencing it.

    When I attempt to share in Firefox, the share menu appears but the content is always blank/empty. Whether I attempt to share w/ "Copy to clipboard", Messages, WhatsApp, etc... it says copied but there is nothing to paste.

    Thinking it may have been something with my code, I loaded up the "Taking Screenshot" example capx. On both Win10 & Android, Firefox displayed that File Sharing is not supported, as expected. So I modified the example capx and whittle it down to just a handful of events:

    On Start of Layout & (inverted) Is sharing supported THEN Set Text to "Sharing not supported"

    On Button Clicked THEN Share Text "Test Text"

    When loaded up on Win10, Firefox shows the text "Sharing not supported", as expected.

    When loaded up on Android, Firefox does not show this text, implying that sharing is supported. However, on button click, while the process appears to work, the share content is again blank/empty.

    Finally I added a check for share success on Android:

    On Share Completed THEN Set Text to "Share Completed"

    On Share Failed THEN Set Text to "Share Failed"

    When loaded up on Android, in both Chrome or Firefox, the share process itself succeeds, so the text shows "Share Completed". If I cancel out of the share process in either Firefox or Chrome, it shows "Share Failed", as expected.

    The big difference is that Chrome's share content correctly shows "Test Text", while Firefox's share content is blank/empty.

    I'm not sure where the content is being dropped or if I'm just doing something wrong, but wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this or has any ideas to resolve?

    For the mobile tests, I tested on two devices but unfortunately both were the same model/version:

    Pixel 6

    Android 13

    FireFox 105.2.0

    Thanks!
