  • Unprofessional -> indie .

    Indie means independent - not unproffesional XD

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • It's true some people enjoy being forced into submission.

    Lol. No, majority of visitors likes viewer-friendly topics.

    Edit@ and in my opinion not having project topics with decent desritpion and scrshoots looks unproffesional.

  • Quick somebody make a thread about programs that can do a screen grab.

    Seriously tho, forcing people to make screen shots wont promote the spirit of sharing.

    I disagree. Just look at the traffic on rmxp.org. It's massive. And the rules sais that minimum are 2 screenshots that must be attached with project post.

  • dropbox is the ultimate ultimateness

    http://www.getdropbox.com/

    It is there it already.

    Rich@ Could you create links in the thread to those services?

  • I don't think it's best to tell people how to lay out their submissions...

    It could work as a hint.

  • scirra.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php

    Think is ok. Maybe you could write something like 'the best way to present your project is to split it in to few parts: Story, Type, Characters, Features, Screenshots'.

    As well I would change topic name in to something like 'Read before post - How best to post creations'.

    Edit@ You could add box.net for hosting games and images. I'm finding it verry friendly. Another one for images could be imageshack.

  • Not as a rule, no. But as a guideline, sure. Post a few guidelines for posting creations, sticky it and kiss it goodbye.

    Yeah, i gues it's better then nothing ;p

  • If you don't want to download a game or engine without screenshots you don't have to, and that is the creator's loss if they aren't willing to put up information.

    Yeah, i agree, however i think thatwhole forum will present it self better overall with better structurisez and detailed topics.

  • I don't think a rule is necessary, but it's obviously helpful if posters of games or engines put up screenshots so people can gauge interest.

    rmxp.net has got this rule, and since long time ago rmxp.pl made it as well, it only did for its best. Besides it doeas look more estetic and proffesional, than at the moment. Just my thought.

  • Edited@

    It's not always clear what some projects are about. I'm finding half of the topics in 'Your Creations' and 'Uploads' not descriptive enough to convince me to download the file as well as makes browsing a bit confusing. Example:

    Topic Name: Infiltrate

    Content: I was bored last night and played with the RTS behavior and line of sight... and out came this.

    And imagin what might happen when Construct will be more popular, attracting loads of fresh users.

    So that's why I think that in every project/upload topic should be better explained with more descriptive text and contain at least 2 sreenshoots and that's should became a rule. What do you think?

  • Is is safe enough to start bigger project on this build?

  • Holy shit(e) Holymonkey. Looks verry nice. I fancy envirement and the way you came up with trees animations. How long you drawing for? I was on your site, and realized that when drawing you are using same shemes as when doing pixelart.

  • you now what? acctualy i'm hyped to max

  • If this is the wrong section to put this in, feel free to move it.

    Now, I've raised the idea in the chat, and people have agreed it's a pretty cool idea, actually executing it will be a problem, however.

    Basically, it's a collaborative project to create a game to show off the capabilities of Construct, hopefully getting some attention and good publicity for it. Deadeye, however, pointed out that team efforts have a tendency to fail spectacularlly, and I'd rather not see that happen.

    So, who thinks this is a good idea, and who would like to help out on such a project?

    That's the n time i would witness the massive fail. It will not work. Sorry

  • It's real, and it's awesome.
