Hello, I am makiing a game for the Microsoft Summer competition and I would like to know, how to use Live Tiles in my game. I have searched the forums, but there are quite few topics about them. Could someone give me a better understanding, what the live tiles are used for and how to use them in my project.

UPDATE!

Uploaded a new version with a mini-tutorial, which explains the basics of the game. I hope,that it makes all the game functions clear and understandable.

A new version is now up:http://www.scirra.com/arcade/action/4366/the-gong

Improvements:

1.Gameplay 3x faster(60 fps, tested on my old crappy Vista)

2.Waves look better visually and spawn in greater numbers

3.Night background opacity is now 80 instead of 99.999, which makes it easier to play.

4.New start menu

5.Fixed the achievements page and some minor bugs.

A new version of my wave physics game "The Gong" is now available in the Scirra Arcade.

I doubled the mass, the cart feels much more rigid and heavier. Does it still feel too bouncy?

If you drop on your side, you can get up by accelerating in the opposite direction, in most cases the cart flips back up. Ill add this note to the game. About the bounciness, then this intentional, I might try to add more mass to the cart, but I dont know, if all features work then properly.

Finally a new Beta version came up and I was able to upload my game to the Scirra Arcade.

Here it is my second game made with Construct 2 - "7 Dwarfs". It is a game inspired by all known fairy tale Snow White and seven dwarfs.

In the game you must guide the seven dwarfs driving in a mining cart through a maze of dangerous labyrints avoiding numerous dangers. You can use both your mouse, keypad or touch to control the carts movements.

This currently a Beta version and has only 6 levels + EXTRA level. 3 more levels + 2 EXTRA levels are coming next week.(I hope I have enough free time.) Graphics will also be made smoother and better. Please rate the game and give your review about the game, what id you like and what could be made better.

Having the same issue, I am using quite complex physic joints, so it is not working anyway around. Just hoping that r128 BETA verion will come soon.

You should read this article:

Everything is working fine, when the layout scrolls forward, the ship seems to collide with an invisible wall and stay put, but actually the layout scrolls forward all the time. Here, I drew a line on the canvas so you could understand.

OK, I got my saving a little better, but it still crashes, when I

1.save

2.load save

3.restart

4.load again

Try combining them together, see if you can reproduce it.

Best regards.

PS here is a picture about the error upload.ee/image/3236100/Untitled.png

In chrome it says, that "col undefined" but in IE "col 5" if this is of any help.

Link to .capx file (required!):

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Layout 5

2. Start preview

3. Drive a little

4. Save game

5. Load game

Observed result:

When reloading the save or restarting the layout the game occasionally crashes. When I referesh the page and load my saved spot, everything works fine, but after I reload the second time it crashes. Could you please chech and tell me if this is because of bugs in C2 or am I doing something wrong with my physics behaviors.

Expected result:

Load and refresh without crashing.
