  • same problems here as well :( reverting to r143

  • Hello all,

    I spent the last couple of months working on a new music game based on the Pied Piper legend.

    In a way, this is a "spiritual" successor to my Orfeo game, made with the first version of Construct years ago and selected for showcase at the Sense of Wonder Night at the Tokyo Game Show in 2010.

    Game play, while still based on expressing "emotions" (happiness, sadness and anger) by improvising simple music tunes like in Orfeo, should be more exciting this time around, though ;)

    I'm going to upload a playable version very soon on Clay.io and I'm thinking of submitting it to the upcoming IGF (it's a very small game, obviously, but I hope it would still be considered for a Nuovo award nomination due to its originality) and, possibly, also to the Tizen competition.

    I'll keep you guys posted.

    Cheers!

  • Planning of entering with my latest music game: I should be ready to submit it soon though I'm also concerned about the lack of a real device to test the game on...

    In any case, good luck everyone!

    After installing the latest beta, I get a popup with this error when launching C2:

    Check failure! This is probably a bug:

  • I successfully ported my puzzle game Turky on the Run to BlackBerry 10!

    appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/28704889

    The process was quite simple (even using the command line approach) and dealing with RIM was very straightforward and fast so this really seems like a good platform to develop for (really, I found the submission procedure much easier to follow and understand than for iOS or W8. Besides, signing for a developer account is free!)

    One warning though: at first, I submitted my game with letterbox scaling and it was rejected for that very reason (they don't want sidebars). Be sure you submit yours with the right resolution covering the whole screen!

    Cheers!

  • Any news on this?

    Looks like Ouya dev kits are starting to ship! <img src="smileys/smiley41.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • Ah! If only we could dock with a simple click in Elite! I remember crushing my ship so many times! :P

    You did a fantastic work indeed, congratulations!

    On a side note, though, I'd change the name of the game, especially if you plan selling or monetizing it somehow: Elite II was actually named Frontier and Frontier Developments is currently at work with Elite Dangerous so, calling your space trading game Frontier as well may be... 'dangerous' (sorry for the terrible pun!)

    Keep up the great work!

  • As said, this was discussed many times before already and it seems the task is too big for a team with limited time and resources that is focusing on adding other features.

    Anyway, I do agree that a "native" (I mean, Scirra's) wrapper for iOS and Android supporting IAP, multiple ads and Game Center would be fantastic (me too bought C2 for making mobile games).

    A possible suggestion would be to follow the footsteps of the guys who develop Spine: they just ended a very successful campaign on kickstarter to fund the development of new features for their 2D animation software.

    If Scirra would go this way (kickstarter or Indiegogo or whatever) to get money to fund the development of their own wrapper (and maybe a few other features that the community thinks are important but troublesome to make without further support), I'd definitely be happy to contribute.

    Cheers!

  • Sogen, I guess by "free version" you mean Construct Classic (and not the 100 event limited trial) in the hope to turn free CC users into paid C2 ones, right? Not sure whether this could work, though it may make a little more sense than killing the C2 Free Edition which is fundamental for spreading the word about the tool...

  • Check Spine at http://esotericsoftware.com/

    Right now, I think the only way to import the animation in Construct from there is to export the frames individually but in the stretch goals of their just ended kickstarter campaign, a JS runtime was specified. Hopefully this will allow for an easy integration...
