  • Yeah, it's all fun.

    I'm using an engine where the export is only guaranteed on a platform that's almost impossible to monitise, so they have to wrap it using a seperate api to use on some other platform. All to keep from having to use code, which seems pretty ironic right now.

  • There's no such thing as mobile lan.

    There's no such thing as mobile offline multiplayer.

  • Alright, thanks for the information.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • If I create an external js file, and execute that file at the start of a layout instead of placing that script into the index.html, will that script respond to javascript function calls I also execute via the browser object?

    Basically does that script continue running, or is it just at time of execution?

    Um, what's up with this company?

    Why is it showing Tom as being banned?

  • You should check out apps similar to what you want to make and go by how big they are.

    If you don't find any, then that also is useful information.

  • It will be a little more than what the folder says as its uncompressed in memory.

    That's more of a device specific question, but the 60-70 mb(if not less) recommendation should work for most devices.

    You can figure most modern devices have at least 256mb of ram.

  • I wouldn't rely on the statistics from there, or the debugger.

    Separate the import graphics into folders by layout, and see what the usage is there.

  • Well you could try a weighted method where you assign a weight or value to an item based on it worth.

    For example if I have a total value of x amount you can do this, if not you need more.

    Kind of like Minecraft.

  • It used to take a minute on my old hard drive.

    Whilst it's unlikely that you'll ever see a company outright endorsing any software, they will often make use of contractors, freelancers and creative agencies that do.

    In terms of big game devs - Insomniac Games, the creators of Spyro, Ratchet and Clank, and the upcoming PS4 Spider-Man game, have made prototypes in Construct.

    In terms of creatives, I'm not as certain on this (so I won't name them) - but I believe a colleague made use of Construct as a Flash/Animate replacement for interactive content for one of UKs largest and most famous animation houses.

    In terms of big corporates, I use Construct to produce prototypes and finished drafts - the largest company being a multinational that ranks very high on the top 10 of the Forbes Global 500; though as with all corporate clients, this was for a very isolated (though nontheless brand-named) division.

    This.

    Demo's in hours rather than days.

    Creatives in days rather than weeks.
