I'm mainly playing Elite:Dangerous on my PC (and eagerly awaiting the Horizons expansion beta)

also currently playing a little bit of Divinity OS and Wasteland 2 on my PS4 as I wait for Fallout 4.

Hi guys,

I'll say up front I'm not trying to cause issues or promote any other software, also Scirra have had my money so I'm not doing them out of any money

That said, do any of you know of any game creating software that is easier to learn than C2? (I'm not knocking C2 at all, its amazing) I have hit up google but cannot find anything apart from the usual (game maker - harder than C2, Stencyl - monthly fees, you never own it)

If you know of anything that would be great, thanks a lot.

okay, thank you.

I wasn't sure where to post it, if its in the wrong section I apologise.

Regarding C2, I bought it roughly 3 weeks ago and and now decided I'm not going to use it again(please don't think I hate the software I do not, I'm just too old and dim to use it), I'm wondering if its possible to give my licence to someone who doesn't have it?

Please note: I am *NOT* selling it, I wish to simply give it away. if it was £20 then I'd just forget it, but £80 to me was a lot and if I'm not using it, I would rather give it to someone who can't afford it as they'll get good use out of it and it won't be wasted.

However I know it might be against some companies terms of usage, so I figured it would be polite to ask permission first.

Thanks a lot.

Showed it to my friend who just laughed (yeah, great friend huh) and said I should stop wasting my time with C2 as I'll never do anything worthwhile. tbh as cruel as that sounded at the time, he might be right. anyway thanks a lot.

Hi guys.

okay I'm about to dump my first game on you but please bear in mind this is my first attempt and I've not done anything remotely like this before so for an old fogey like me, its been hard work, although I've learnt a lot in the process.

Don't expect anything neat or polished, its not. its as rough as it gets but I've been working on it for several weeks now and its time for a project change, so I'm calling it done and moving on. sure there are many ways it can be better (I never did figure out how to get the tank and turret to rotate smoothy to the pointer rather than snapping around but it'll do)

Its a tank game, started off like the old Atari 2600 combat game but as time went on I updated the graphics.

I can take constructive criticism as long as its not "my god you suck and your game sucks". haha tbh I'm a bit scared of showing it really, its like being put in front of a firing squad. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" />

Here a link to the capx file, please don't look at my code, you'll laugh ..or cry <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" />

Rules:- Your 1 tank against forever respawning 2 tanks, move the pointer to aim and move the tank, left mouse to fire a round. extra lives every 1000 points.

That's excellent and I would have never thought of that.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I cannot figure this out, no doubt you guys will nail it in seconds and make me feel dumb. hehe, I have tried using search but had no luck.

What I want to do is give the player an extra life every 1000 points.

Now I have an event set up that adds 1 to the lives variable when the points hit 1000 and displays a message on screen but what about at 2,3,4,5,6,7,8000++?

Surely there is an easy way to do this?

right click the mouse is over event and choose invert..

Doh! I can't believe I didn't realise that. Thank you!

Thank you very much!

I have a "mouse is over" event, but not "mouse is not over". I guess I'm looking in the wrong area, I'll see if I can find it elsewhere.

How do I..

Stop my tank "jumping" back 2-3 pixels when the gun fires? I just cannot figure out whats causing it, yes I'm both a newbie and rather dumb <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad" />

Here is my game file, please no laughing at how basic my game is <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" />

Arrghh.. url was modified <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad" /> - I'll try again (just remove the spaces)

(The tank follows the mouse pointer around and its left mouse button to fire)

Thanks
