  • Yeah, I've done that already, it still doesn't look good. The tearing is really only between my water object, which is semi-transparent, so maybe that's worth mentioning.

  • I've been trying to increase the scale of my game using layer zoom, but it always turns out looking terrible. There are seams between blocks and every things blurry. Is there a way to do this so it looks nicer?

  • Linked my blog to GameJolt. That site is pretty spiffy.

    (If anyone has a GameJolt account already, I'd greatly appreciate some more ratings on my games, I have a total of 4 or 5 votes I think on both and someone went through and gave both 1's (not saying go and give them 5's, say whatcha think.))

  • Didn't get my spiffy logo up yet, but I've started a blog and named a company just so I could be all formal / fancy 'n stuff. Here it is: Scapegoat Software

    Also started working on a new game, currently without a name. A screenshot of what I have so far is on the blog, its not much.

    As for the gameplay, I'm trying to do something slightly different than what most platformers do, at least I hope. Its a single screen platformer that involves doing different task for people throughout the game world. You'll have different task to get you different places, and the gameplay for different task will have a few different styles. Going in different directions will cause the game to change to your play style.

    For instance, if you only complete task the involve more platforming skill, platforming puzzles will get increasingly difficult as you go. Other task include ones that require solving riddles to find a certain object to bring to a person and such. I've never really done puzzles, but hopefully it'll turn out ok.

    I also plan to continue work on my other project, Eat World. I have some progress on that since my last update, including a large and quite hilarious looking enemy. Trying to learn how to code some simple boss fights.

    Well, that's all for now. I hope to get something playable (and fun) out to everyone soon.

    Then how about just reading the first post?

    Aw man... this happens to me way more than it should...

    Anyway, sorry about that, thought I read all of the first post, must of just skimmed and not realized it.

  • Hey, didn't wanna read the whole thread, but I could help out with some Flash elements if anyone needs / wants them.

  • Did it for Ludum Dare 14, first time in the contest and second completed Construct game.

    I'm pretty happy with it. I managed to take the concept I came up with and do everything I intended to do in 2 days, the concept just wasn't that great. But, I guess thats not really the point. Learned some things and worked hard on a weekend for once, so I feel pretty good about it.

  • Heheh... simple but awesome.

  • Try Construct 3

  • Meh, you can't expect me to read the boring parts.

  • Ah... of course I was using an overcomplicated broken method... Thank you.

    ...now I need to go fix Australopithecus. Curse your lying tutorials.

  • I could make the main character a brighter shade of gray, that would help with the contrast issue.

  • Yeah, I did use your tutorial.

    But I did see a reason for it, the sprite gets blurred occasionally without it. Haven't seen the updated tutorial. I just don't think it looks good when the sprite gets blurred.

  • Sorry, forgot about that.

    Just jump on the platforms and eventually you'll end up floating around on one.

    It's called Eat World.

    Except I need to change the name now because everyone seems to immediately associate it with "Jimmy Eats World."

  • Just a minor problem I've noticed while working on my new game and my last one is with the platforming behavior, when the character jumps onto a platform occasionally he'll become stuck in the falling animation until he falls or jumps again. Its a minor problem and seems to only happen when you just barely make it onto a platform, but its still somewhat annoying. Is there some way to fix this?
