> It's true nobody has really finished any games yet, and that's probably also because while we're in beta emphasis is on developing Construct - fixing bugs, reporting issues, coming up with feature ideas and such, and as Rich pointed out there are known file corruption bugs we still need to fix.

It's certainly not my opinion, and I doubt it's the opinion of the majority of people here. So please - don't upset yourself by generalising the opinions of a single person to an entire site! I don't think anybody's even explicitly said that.

I don't think everyone on this site is like that! I was talking to that one guy, and the reason I get upset about people saying that gotw games on TDC can't compare to these tech demos, is that people put a lot of hard work into those games. Then just becuase you use construct so now you have all these effects you can do, it makes them crap? Some better wording could be used there IMO.

Mate if you actually bothered to read the posts on the topic on TDC you'll see that all I asked was if construct games were allowed or not because I heard otherwise and if not why not? They others persisted int elling me that construct is shit and shouldn't be allowed. Then you jumped on the bandwagon and started arguing with me.

All I ever said about the tech demos was that they were really good and yet everyone just says there crap because there not made in MMF2, and I also never said they were better than every game of the week just some. I wish people would read whole topics before replying to one post when they dont know what its going on about.

I jump on saying that Im exited about construct and thats the only reason I'm back into makign games and all of a sudden I get told its crap, you should use mmf2 blah blah blah. I dont want to use MMF2, Ive already used mmf2, im sick of mmf2. I dont think its crap I just am only really interested in construct at the moment.

Your totally right, I wasn't arguing just defending the product. I just hate it when people start fights with me for no reason over stupid things. These guys need to lay off the crack I say.

I'm glad that the oldies like Rikus and the other guys I know from back in the day have no problem with construct games on TDC.

I never said it came FROM TDC just that it was posted there There are alot of terrible games on there, although there are some great ones aswell. What I was getting at is that the tech demos whilst only tech demos are already showing heaps of new things not yet seen(or if seen then not done well) in older klik games.

But I couldn't care less. Use what you want and stop bothering me with your gay rants.

Wow this was really good. Same style of game I'm working on atm (sidescroller shooter) I thought it would be a good genre to implement alot of special effects

I only just found the program a few days ago, as opposed to the years and years and years of click products experience I had I am very new at construct. However I'm working on a little something now and I'll be happy to post it up when its done.

I think you also forget that alot of the Klik games have been in production for a VERY long time. Its not that people havn't bothered to make games its that they aren't finished :O

Anyway I'm not in for an argument war I have games to make! And thanks for clearing that up Rikus as I said I never wanted to start a fight, it just seems that the moment you mention Construct everyone thinks you are a witch and need to burn you.

I never thought a game making program could have fanboys though? It appears you can have fanboys of everything

Also codemonkey whats your real problem with Construct? Is it that everyone else who hasnt tried it and refuses to try it on TDC hates it? Monkey see Monkey do hey?

Half of the Construct Tech demos I have seen here are well more worthy than some of the previous GOTWs haha and they are only TECH DEMOS!

I'm really amped about this program! Still messing around with it atm going to make a few small games that I can atleast finish. Looking forward to v1.0 of Construct.

Its time to finish some games so we can showcase the program guys!

CONSTRUCTICONS ROLL OUT!

I was having a quick look and thats amazing! How did you change the colours of the picture to the green/purple/blue version for bumpmapping? Is there a way to filter normal pictures this way easily?

I'm only messing around in construct atm so I have ALOT of questions haha.

Apparently Construct games ARE elligible.

It could be called the Contruction Yard

Haha... I dont see why Construct games cant go for game of the week? A game is a game no matter what its made in. Thats like saying your not allowed to win because the program you are using is not as hard as ours to get the same results. Doesn't make any sence to me.

Lets try and make a game worthy of GOTW and see what happens haha.

Ah ok, it doesnt bother me to much right now because Im only playing around with it, not making massive projects that I spent months on to have all my saves corrupt haha, and that from a program I PAID for.

Hopefully I can be of use during the beta and report any errors I find.

I was blown away with some of the tech demos, graphically it seems alot further ahead than MMF was. I havnt used MMF2 though so I can't cmment there. My history is K&P and then MMF. I used to use the K&P sprite editor and import to MMF because I Hated the MMF editor, but from what I can see the Construct editor is pretty good.

This program has brought me back into game making haha.

Hi everyone, I dont know if anyone remembers me but I have been around since before the Daily Click and sadly had moved on from the community ages ago (not for any reason just ran out of time and found other hobbies as you do). On a random visit to tDC I found out about Construct and thought I'd give it a go.

Well I just wanted to say it looks awesome and I've checked out some of the tech demos and they are great. I'm going to have a play around with it and see what I can come up with!

Perhaps I can finish a game in construct without it crashing and making my files unreadable like MMF used to (and part of the reason I gave up haha)!!!
