  There is a tutorial here on a variation of Match3 that should allow anyone to create whatever variation of the genre they want.

  Personally, I have absolutely no interest in C2 attempting to integrate 3D, as I think it will put too much strain on the engine. I'm hoping Ashley will agree.

  I would be interested to see a straw poll of how many users are actually really interested in this, because it reminds of the calls for the Spritefont+ plugin to be integrated, even though barely 400 people downloaded the plugin.

  It is sometimes difficult to gauge accurately if something is really of interest without some quantitative measure to look at.

  Just my 2 cents.

  You might also want to edit your OP and change the link to the .capx to the link to your tutorial, or you won't generate as much traffic. Every little helps

  This really isn't the appropriate website for discussing basic web design principles . A Google search on 'adding iframes' will be more beneficial, such as:

  http://www.webstarts.com/support/2011/03/how-to-add-an-iframe-to-your-webstarts-website/

  Or better still, try this tutorial from Ashley: https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/655/tips-on-publishing-html5-games-to-the-web which includes a bit about embedding using iframes.

  I meant would it work for his purposes, not whether the code would work - I already knew it did

  As we are all (it appears) pointing to this example when others ask about ropes, maybe you should put this in the .capx section of the Tutorials part of the site. That way you'll get loads of rep points

  Would embedding the exported index.html in an iframe work?

  I.e.

  <iframe src="http://www.mywebsite/mygame/index.html" height="400" width="800"></iframe>[/code:3oozn1o1]

  Why?

  C2 exports javascript, so if you don't use minify, you can see the script in it's least obfuscated form, but it's still going to be difficult to edit the raw javascript.

  I don't know where you've got that idea from that it's just url only. It doesn't say that anywhere in the release notes.

  The release notes say:

  I imported a webm file to the project files then exported as Node-Webkit, and it played fine.

  There are quite a few, but you are going to have to sit and stare at the events for a while with some of them, as they are not exactly simple.

  Here's another thread that includes a very good example from R0j0hound. https://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=72291&start=0

  There are others that make use of the Canvas plugin, and again, Rojohound has done some good examples. I'll update this post when I find them.

  That type of thing sounds similar to what happens in the game Worms, and there are many threads about this game mechanic if you search.

  There is also this thread which has examples of pixel destructible terrain: https://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=92929&start=0

  Maybe this is of use?

  Why not quickly mock-up something like that and test in debug?

  As it says in the manual, HTML exported games are not meant to be run locally, and should be hosted to allow full functionality.

  Why not use spritefont, or a nice sprite background image with a spritefont overlay.
