As much as I love C2, I cannot and will not pay for a subscription service on principle. You have lost a customer and I suspect not just the one.

"- There won't be native exporters"

Sucks, I know its nothing to lots of people but its a deal breaker for me personally, I'll just keep using GMS then.

no sale here.

> C2 still doesn't do native code, C3 probably won't either, and it outputs several files, not just an .exe.

True.

C2 Steam support works as far as I know, but you'll be better off using these plugins instead of the Experimental Greenworks Plugin:

Woah woah.. so if I wanted to buy the steam version I have to drop £30 on top of the £80 asking price for that plugin?? that's crazy. o_O

There was another report about how using too many capitals really drains the batteries, and how occasionally using a period could possibly offset that.

Post of the year hahaha

Hello,

I posted here a few months ago about being undecided about buying C2 or Fusion 2.5 and at that time I picked and bought fusion. Sadly over the last couple of months I've become more and more disappointed with fusion, not that it's bad but its community is not really that great at helping people like me who are slow to learn things.

So I'm now back and looking at C2 again (and possibly game maker studio) and I'm wondering if anything has changed with C2 over the past few months?

My biggest issue with Construct was the fact that it cannot output native windows code and I wanted a 'single' .exe file from my game, not html5 and certainly not a folder full of dll files and other fluff. Can it do this yet and if not, have they said if C3 will do it?

also (without being biased) how is the community? is it easy to get help, even if like me you are a VERY slow learner and don't take things in fast at all?

Thank you

edit:- ohhh one more thing, is the Steam version of C2 now fixed? I only like buying my games/apps on Steam and was told it was broken.. hopefully this is now fixed.

I thank you for your answers and fast too. {b)} is a killer for me, if it was in the pipeline I'd toss down my £79 today but if its zero and not coming, I will default to Fusion 2.5 as its a deal breaker for me, I dislike wrappers.

no offence intended, thank you again for your help. goodbye

Goodday guys,

I've been looking at buying software for creating my own games for a few weeks now, I have my final choice down to Fusion 2.5 or Construct 2. but I'm not a rich guy, £79 to me is a LOT of money (yes, I'm rather poor) but I don't mind paying if I'm going to use the software a lot and enjoy it.

Before I click 'buy', I have some questions

a) is it legal to give any completed games to my friends if they don't own Construct 2?

b) is native windows export coming to Construct 2 in an update? (wrappers suck, bloat your file and kill the efficiency of the game)

c) is it legal to have Construct 2 installed on 2 devices (my desktop and laptop) or would I need to buy 2nd licence?

Thank you
