You can avoid hitting the enemies all over, instead how about a sick people/animals and u must cure them with vitamin c/ lemon or something good so they just be happy when you cure them instead you kill them, so everyone happy in the end and also this might tech children how good fruits or vitamin c to them, but if you crush them the player will get sick and lose.

this just an idea i know look messy, but hope i give u an idea for the design.

you have Torque 3d (became open source recently):

you also can use UDK or CryEngineSDK

also i know this crazy, but Yoyogames GameMaker and Scirra Construct Classic can do some 3D games, but again you may ended up with extra effort and tweaking, the final result expected to be simple game and not strong like what unity3D or other 3d engines can offer you in this field, the 3D.

Please folks, don't flame me, i know this is very very early question regarding Construct 3, it might even Scirra Team didn't put thought about it just yet, so afterward with r100 released and many cool stuff bundled for HTML5 (webgl, shaders, exe wrappers etc..), but what I'm trying to know in case for future release (Construct3), Ashley does it will be built with like continue over construct 2 depending on HTML5 ? or will rebuilt from scratch again but this time with different technologies ? perhaps Native OpenGL, or NaCL? or even start support 3D ?, i got those thought after i saw construct history:

Construct 1 Classic [ Windows/DirectX ]

Construct 2 [ HTML5 ]

Construct 3 [ ???? ]

I'm so happy with Construct 2, and I expect construct 3 will offer me a new technology that not HTML5, something more interesting, powerful, a new experiences   <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

so guys, what your wish or thought regarding Construct[Next] ?

forgive me for my bad english

Scirra Construct 2 already take care of many aspects for makings games, "sound manager, 2Dbox physics, Facebook Integration etc..." game engines are made to shortcut/support you to make games, making thing from scratch requiring knowledge, patience and time, also if you are new to game development in general, i highly recommend you to start out with D&D tools, this his 3 benefits:

1- you will make your game in short time (productive).

2- you also learning programing/game development in indirect way <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

3- the most important part in your life, you will determine yourself if you interested in game developments or not, without too much sacrifices, like learning programing or other complex frameworks.

trust me you wont waste your time with Construct 2 <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

I'm planing to make some Arabian tuts for construct 2, however if thing goes smooth i will add an English subtitle too as well :)

my goal not just teaching construct2, it's more of rise awareness in my society about a great game engine.

What were your first impressions about the event sheet ?

it's a fun way to do game logic, it's reminding me of rpg maker event system :)

How did you discover Construct 2 ?

in fact, this a long story, first of all i know Construct Classic before, i wasn't happy with it, it was in their early versions and gamemaker 6/7 was the stable choice for making games and more famous when you search for tutorials, i wasn't care for it especially i'm not fun of click team multimedia fusion, so i been and still using gamemaker for most of my creations last years, till a day when one of my friend said why one of my gamemaker games his tearing issue ? this was really shame for gamemaker, i have no hope to work around this bug, especially for a guy interesting in making side scroller, so i decided to search for another game engine that have no tearing issue, i just give Construct Classic another chance and i tried to make a platformer, however, it's crashes and i lost hope for any game maker alternative, it was scirra end for me, till a day i tried to make a web game, i remember stencyl been at news but didn't release yet, i thought it's became vaporware.. also i remembered i read an interview for Ashley at gamemakerblog.com he said he will consider cross platform for the next Construct, which I believe he meant HTML5, so i waited for Construct 2 and when i tried i got happy for what i see, it's not buggy like CC was and not open source anymore (i don't trust open source engine) :D.
