  • Hi all

    I am struggling to figure out how to get my player to slide down / across and angled rope.

    I want it to work like in Rayman legends, if the player collides with the rope he will grab on and slide down the remainder of the angled rope.

    Any ideas how to do this? I have been trying to use the MoveTo but not having much luck.

    Any help would really be appreciated :-)

    Many thanks

  • construct supports svg so u could use that instead of rasterizing your vector graphics

    for the resolution just put some lines of code that adapt the resolution of the game to the device used and make sure your UI moves around to account for different aspect ratios and stuff

    Thank you, I will look into using svg however I have been using Esoteric Spine for the animations, so I don’t think I can use svg for this, but perhaps I can use svg for other static graphics in the game 🙂

  • It may or may not cause issues. It's hard to say, a lot depends on the user's device. Precisely because it's hard to say is why I prefer to play it safe.

    Larger textures can definitely cause issues in regards to limited VRAM. It just doesn't make sense to me to risk potential problems for something that people may or may not be able to take advantage of in the first place (or even notice a difference at all).

    Thanks again for your advice 🙂

  • Thank you for your advice :-)

    I was thinking 4k to future proof the game and just incase it was successful and could try and get it ported to consoles etc. But I have no idea how much it would effect performance. Do you know would it slow down the game a lot ?

    Anyway I am now leaning towards the standard HD as you say I want more people to be able to enjoy the game :-)

    Thanks again

  • Hi All

    I have made few basic browser games in the past using construct 3 but now I am working on a much larger platformer project. I would like to release the game on steam eventually and maybe one day the iPad (but not sure about Ipad yet).

    If I am releasing a game on Steam should my game be 4k or is HD good enough?

    I have only been setting up the rough prototype for now and my construct viewport size is 3840 x 2160 but will this be to heavy once I bring in loads of artwork? Will this cause performance issues when people play the game or will they have to have super computers to play it?

    My art style is vector based, you can see my art style in one of my basic games below, but the game I am working on will be in this vector style but have a lot more layers, detail and animations etc. toon.world/games/henrys-slingshot-antics/6

    Any advice would be appreciated, as I don’t want to make a mistake and create everything in the wrong size.

    Many thanks :-)
