Didn't know want to think reading the thread title, but this somehow makes a lot of sense.

Wow, this looks so on point! Great job.

I also tried to make a DKC engine in Construct, but I didn't get nearly as far as you did.

Wow, this is very slick. Everything from the background effects to the animations seems to have a lot of production values, even if it's just a demo.

I've been having the same problem.

Construct 2 will randomly start running at a snails pace and generally seem unresponsive.

Looks amazing! Is this the first game you've made with Construct?

Hah, I'd like to say it is but I did release a puzzle game a few years ago although I don't know if I would call it "complete." The same goes for the Pokemon game I released in 2013 as it's kind of in an eternal public beta...

Noise Busters is finished though, and the only changes I plan on making will be based on player feedback, fixing bugs, and "special events."

icugigasoft thanks.

I knew when i started the project that eventually i wanted to have slick animated menus (current ones are just temporary).

The menus and interface elements are on a layer below the game layer, then i have a sprite which acts as a mask with blend mode set to destination out. The text (also sprites) are animated on the interface layer. Hope that helps.

I've been puttin my interface stuff on the highest level... guess I need to learn about blend modes now, ha.

Awesome arts and colors.

Any full screen version?

I've been mulling over whether or not I'm going to make a downloadable version (I think that allows for full screen...) but part of the appeal is comparing your scores to others...

I'll let you guys know if I do.

Damaged units can now be healed if they are occupying a captured town. Units heal 25% of their max health each time.

Thats the last of the town code. Adding the battle stuff next.

Wow, that looks pretty slick in terms of animation.

How did you get the image (text) to scroll down the box without having it clip out of the box? S

Thanks, this was very helpful!

Hello,

I read up on how to write XML, and the tutorials provided on AJAX and XML, but still have some difficulty figuring it out. I have the XML file on my server, and have been successfully been able to retreive the file using AJAX, and load it into the XML object.

However, the actual expressions needed to read the data are throwing me for a loop.

Could someone show me the simplest way for me to read a number from an XML file, or if XML is even the way to go if the extent of my dynamic data will only be 2 numbers?

Thanks
