Wow. I agree completely with hero_bash.

You should write a book: Learn How to Make an RPG in Five Minutes.

Subtitle: Then Work On It For Five Years

What Aeal means is there is no way for the player to customize the key controls at runtime yet.

Sorry, my wording was misleading. This is what I meant to say: I didn't realize the player couldn't customize the key controls at runtime.

Ah, I didn't realize custom platform movement wasn't possible in Construct. Too bad. Maybe in a future version?

As far as the jumping scheme: I for one don't mind the current one. I think whatever scheme you use the player just has to consider it as a part of this particular game. Of course you wouldn't want it to be unnecessarily awkward, but in this case I don't think it is.

Could you repost the link? Apparently there was a download limit of 10x that was already reached.

From what I've seen in the forums though, it sounds like a very good start. Apparently it bears repeating that the graphics he's using now are not going to be in the final product. Personally I completely agree that graphics are the least of your worries when you're starting to develop a game of any magnitude. Why not make the game work first so you won't have to sift through a bunch of fancy animation code, etc. while debugging.

Very nice. Any chance you'll post the final .cap?

Very nice, much better than my first offering.

I really think there's a heavy interest in using Construct for developing card games.

Perhaps a good question to ask is how the card game plugin could be extended to offer a higher level of support for making card games.

He is posting in the Help/Tech Support section though right? Isn't that the proper place for questions?

Okay, now I see Deadeye's post: http://www.scirra.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2254

Better to use the Construct Discussion or Open Topic forums, eh?

Construct lends itself particularly well to making a tetris-like game.

I'm still really new to Construct, but after viewing the Ghost Shooter Demo (http://www.scirra.com/tutorials) I think I know everything I need to in order to make a tetris game.

Very nice. I wonder how he did that.

I'm guessing whatever he did it would be the hard way to make a 3d game.

Very nice demo. I think the Terramancy / Aquamancy idea is very clever and unique.

As for controls, why not let the user change what buttons do what if he/she wants?

Also, maybe it's worth pointing out that you can hold down the jump button while running. That way as soon as you release it you'll have a decent sized jump ready.

Very nice. It shows such creativity when you can come up with such a simple yet entertaining app. I'll have to remember this one around July 4th.
