  Thanks, are you talking about the manual or one of the 'guided' game tutorials?

  There are string and number values in the DB that need to be passed to the game, and shown to the player. After the game is over, I'd like some variables passed back to the DB as well. Trying to figure out if this kind of back and forth through C2 is common, or am I off base.

  Thanks for the reply.

  Hi there,

  I'm new here and am not a game dev or graphic artist and was wondering if variable handling is a often a part of the process of developing a game. I'm trying to learn if people pass variables from a calling language from a DB to a game and back again. Is this common?

  Thanks,

  Sam

  Hi there, I'm Sam and I'm here to learn more about HTML5 game requirements and hope I've found an easy platform for beginners. I won't be developing games myself but will need to find some folks to work with to develop for my company, where games will be a secondary element. I hope to develop relationships with many of you personally while I learn about Construct and the platform. Thanks for reading!

  I'm just starting to see some the different approaches and options available on C2 - wish it were a little longer to see more game play. Thanks for showing it off, looks cool!

  Hi everybody!

  I’m Sam, and completely new here. I am evaluating game platforms and have pretty simple requirements. In order to determine if Construct works for my need, I would like to pay someone to help me figure it out with a really simple and quick proof of concept. I don’t have lots of time, and you know the program - I do not. I did some reading and emailed Scirra for clarification regarding variable handling in Construct, so now I need an actual game sample.

  If you’re interested, I am looking for someone that has solid experience:

  • Consuming/reading simple variables
  • Changing the value of the variables based on simple game actions
  • Passing those variables back out

  My actual game test will consist of 1 screen and 1 button and use 2 variables. Again, it’s only a proof of concept of variable handling and the game is secondary.

  If you are available within the next few days and can help, please PM me. Aside from the game test, I will probably have a few questions about the program, the output, etc. and would like to chat on the phone or via email and would be happy to offer $100 for your time for this help. There will likely be more needs like this if this first test works for me, so it would be nice to keep in contact.

  Thanks for reading!!

  Sam
