Ok. That makes sense. :)

Anyway, I'll do my best to just inspire myself from these games but innovate and change a lot of stuffs.

A big thank you to everyone for all these advices. It's really appreciated. :)

Ok I read carefully all your answers, thank you so much, it's very clear and specific.

Which it leads me to ask 2 more questions :

1) Is there a difference between a copyright or a patent ?

Or is just a way to speak ?

2) If I try to make a template inspired by famous games, taking the max of precautions, but unintentionnaly, I infrige a copyright or a law, etc.

My question is : are they going to warn me first and ask me to stop the sales and retire my template or my game from the market ? OR are they going IMMEDIATLY to sue me ?

Because despite my efforts to follow the rules, of course I will retire my product if they ask me to. But I want to be sure to be warned first and not be pursuied !!

Thanks for your answers ;)

Ok great ! Thank you so much !

No don't worry i never use codes (i dont know how coding anyway 😅) just events.

That's what I love in Construct, I'm simply uing logic to be able to replicate a game that has been made by codes ☺️

Hi,

I'm a little confused. Are we allowed to "copy" or make a template based on an existing game or not ? It seems to depends of some criterias but I don't know whichs ones. Let me explain what I mean :

If I take for example the game "Hill Climb Racing" : at the beginning, an indie dev has got this idea and now we can find a lot of variants of this game on Google Play (Android) with different names or styles, because a lot of others indies devs made them. (Including me because I made a template for Construct for this game ;) ).

BUT about some games published on the App Store (Ipad or Iphone), there aren't any "copies" nor variants of these games.

I'm asking that because I wanted to make a template of the recently famous game "Sneaky Sasquatch" because I didn't found any variants of this game on Android on Google Play. Same thing about "Untitled Goose Game" (although this game has been released on consoles lately...).

So what the matter here ?

Is it a question of copyright ? (the original dev of Hill Climb Racing didn't take a copyright, but the devs of SS and UGG did ?)

Or is it because Apple has a kind of exclusivity on its games ?

Please, if someone could explain that to me and, above all, tell me if I am allow or not to make a template ofr Sneaky Sasquatch for des who're using Construct 2 & 3 ?

I'm sorry, I'm more specialized in the creation than in the distribution laws. But I want to be sure to not break the law.

So, thank you for your answers.

Take care.

P.S : And don't worry, I'm not only a "copier", I have also my own original projects in mind but I love exploit the full potential of Construct to try to create special and rare templates of games for the indie devs who're working on Construct 2 & 3. ;)

Hi,

Like many others construct users, I'm looking for a way to use Construct 2 or 3 to be able to scan a simple picture (a book page) and make appear in my camera a 2D augmented reality. I know there exists plenty of apps for this (like Roar, Layar or Aurasma Hp Reveal) but I want my players to be able to scan the images with my App made with Construct 2.

I read many topics on the forums, but one of them interpellated me in particular :

I found this, a open source framework to add augmented reality in a project. Any idea on how to add this to construct ?

====} So, does anyone has successed in making such a plugin ?

I'm ready to pay for this (and I will add the same topic in the "JOB OFFERS" sections too).

thx a lot,

by :)

Hi,

I have the project to make an illustrated book (with hidden clues inside) who will be useable with an App (made by construct 2 by myself). Among many others options, I'd like to have an option where the players can use, like a "scan image option", in order to see the page of my book and see the 2D AR images (the famous hidden clues) appearing through the camera of their phone.

I know I have to prepare some triggers first to my 2D animations, and I already tried to used specific tools and apps like Roar, Layar or Aurasma Hp Reveal, for example. But I'd really want my players to be able to scan the images directly with my App made with Construct 2, inside the App itself.

I don't know anything about coding, but I was thinking maybe something could find a way to use a kind of universal AR reader, of else, using the same code of these specific apps (that I quoted earlier).

Also, I read many topics on the scirra forums, and one of them interpellated me in particular :

I found this, a open source framework to add augmented reality in a project. Any idea on how to add this to construct ?

So, does anyone here would be competent enough in coding to implement this plugin or anything else to be able to make my project feasable, by any chance ? :)

thx by advance,

have a nice day :)
