  • Howdy all!

    I'm Punky, a 20-year veteran professional Javascript programmer (for boring business applications) who has been making games as a hobby for just about as long. I've tried just about every gaming engine imaginable, but have gravitated here to Construct because my young daughter took an interest in game development with me so I needed to find an engine that was approachable (and the fact that it is Javascript-based is handy for me. :D ). She designed her first game at 4 years old and we made it in Gamemaker and officially released it as an Android game (Farty Party Unicorns). She was thrilled! And now that she is 9 we are hoping to doing something more robust. I hope to keep her attention on this hobby and encourage her interest in tech and computer science.

  • Does Construct3 allow the ability to create common logic for a group of objects?

    For example, let's say I want an event so that when the player collides with an enemy is takes damage. Do I need to define that in the event sheet for each enemy sprite, or can I group all enemies into some kind of enemy "parent" and then write the logic once for that "parent?"

    That is how you'd do it in Gamemaker... and in OOP languages, you'd inherit that function from a parent Class. But I don't see how to accomplish this in the visual scripting of C3.

    Thanks!
