  • Hold-on, Hold-on,

    I finally got excited I'll play with Construct2 on my favorite platform (Steam).

    I bought it and .... WTF?!

    Where is the export to Android button????

    Please don't tell me it's a limitation that noone informs you about.

    That in order to export to Android I'll have to buy the software from Scirra.com.

  • Smart move Scirra, the discount on Steam finally. I wish to believe my post pushed you a bit for this decision

    Next Best thing would be a connection between the Scirra and Steam accounts.

    And the next best thing - Steam Overlay for Construct2 games, and/or pushing Construct2 games through mobile Steam app

    Actually, steam is the worst place for this software. You want to buy it on scirra, and never use steam version ever

    I brought on steam, and then brought business license here to get away from steam.

    It's how you get used to stuff. I like platforms where I have everything I need there. I don't know how being on Steam affects working in Construct2, but it can't be much. Plus I'm a hobbyist, game dev wannabe. I don't care about a lot of stuff. I want to be able to work on Construct2 and my friends see me doing so...chatting with them etc. Also I believe I can use SteamCloud with Construct2 right?! This helps me work on my games/apps wherever I go just run steam and all the assets are updated to that PC.

  • Hello Guys,

    I searched the forum and there are hundreds of posts mentioning steam and redeems etc. But no straight answer.

    If I buy Construct 2 from the website, WILL I or WILL I NOT receive a redeem key, to get Construct2 personal edition into my Steam Account?

    Thank you in advance!

  • Your opinion is based solely on "flappy fird", and in fact there were many games with the same gameplay in the past. Doesn't matter if the challenge is to count the stalactites or time, the challenge is there! I can recall a game about a malfunctioning airplane that was releasing smoke and had to avoid stalactites and mountains. There you had to hold the button in order to gain altitude instead of clicking, and the score was exactly the time. How much time will you manage to keep the plane in the air.

    I've uploaded the project file where the game is, you can see the text box.

  • Well, no, it shows how much time have you manage to maintain the flight. Don't put it like that "Time wasted" . If so then all games are just one big waste of time. Time is as much a motivator as it is the passing of the stalactites.

    And the text box, there should the timer be, however when the layout is restarted it just blanks.

  • Hello,

    I've created this flappy-bird-like game, http://www.scirra.com/arcade/example/14099/mayday-mayday-mayday/comments#comments, but I have several issues.

    1. The timer that I've put runs for 09 sec, then it stops, and if you restart the layout it completely blanks.

    2. It appears that when the bat is below a certain position the gravity kind of increases, and it becomes really different for it to fly itself up. You have to use more clicks than when you're on the top of the screen.

    3. When I updated the game, uploaded the update, I tried to change the name of the game, but it didn't change it. My first idea wasn't involving a bat it involved a malfunctioning plane. That's why the name is "Mayday, mayday, mayday", and now, with a bat this name isn't appropriate. Is this a bug on the upload system, because it opens a window saying I can change the name, but it just doesn't do it?

    If there's anyone who can help me, I'll be really grateful.

    Thanks in advance.

    PS: I'm sorry this may be in the wrong place, if it's possible moderators to move it.
