    Ooh that sounds complicated! Is there any tutorial on it?

    probably somewhere it exists, but it really is not complicated, here a simple example:

    say you have a running character for a platform game, so 1st you create an invisible rectangular sprite which is the PLAYER which will have the running / platform behavior and anything else that you need to happen to it such as LIFE, collisions, etc.

    since is it a simple square/rectangle you will never have collision problems and everything will be clean

    Now to see the player you have the running animation in a separate sprite called say PLAYER_Graphics with only PIN behavior maximum. This only exists to show the player and also allows you to switch him with another player graphic as many times as you want super easily since you are not touching the "real" PLAYER

    To stick the graphics on top of the PLAYER you have 2 easy options:

    1) At start of layout PIN behavior on PLAYER both position and angle

    or 2) Every tick, set position to PLAYER.X PLAYER.Y

    That way your PLAYER is separate from the graphics and allows you to both have cleaner collisions / movement while also allowing you to change graphics any time you wish.

    Hope that helps,

    Cheers,

  • im on my desktop, just rechecked its bigger now

    Hi Xicx,

    Thank you so much for confirming, I was scared that something is wrong. I am self-taught so I know I can make mistakes even though I try my best not to make them :)

    Thanks again,

  • don't know if you knw this but the game appears very tiny , is there a way to enlargen it or play full screen?

    Hi Xicx,

    I didn't know that! When I open on my computer it is quite large like on this screenshot: prntscr.com/om133v

    (and I also tested on my tablet and mobile)

    Could you please tell me what browser or device or size you used when it opened tiny for you? I definitely want to fix that so that everyone can enjoy - I hope you will reply,

    Thank you in advance!

  • Hi, you can perhaps do it another simple way:

    Add a Global Variable like #ofMoves

    When you roll a dice add the result to #ofMoves

    Now, I assume your board tiles are at exact same distances from one another:

    Then you simply tell your player to move #ofMoves times on the board.

    If you need to change angle you can setup an extra invisible sprite on your tiles whereby when the player comes to the tile it determines which is the angle for the next move.

    Best of luck,

  • Hi, easy fix :)

    Need 2 things:

    1) Give an instance variable (Health) to your enemies and add an event saying that every time they are hit remove 1 health.

    Then another event saying when their health is equal or less than zero you initiate your death process / destroy.

    2) When you are shooting them add an extra condition to pick the enemy instance on top so if you have multiple enemy instances on top of one another 1 bullet will not do damage to all but instead only to one (the one on top).

    Best of luck,

  • Hi, I have an idea to make a simple math game to both have fun and improve math skills.

    The monsters will be attacking the player with, for example, 2+3 above their head instead of a health bar and to kill them you have to give the answer, 5 in this case.

    So you would have multiple monsters with multiple equations coming at the player and the player has to either type or click the answers to fight.

    My question(s): How could I implement that?

    Many thanks

  • Fun game! tried a bunch of different strategies to see if I could survive the boss... can he beaten?

    my best score was 1066.

    you need a restart button!

    Thanks for playing my game :)

    You are 100% right i need that restart - I made a mistake and built it without it and it became so complex that when i tried to add a restart i ended up with a bunch of bugs. I need to figure out how to reset everything correctly, which I will definitely do in a following update.

    The boss does have a certain amount of life but I have not managed to beat him myself either :) I originally made the game very difficult (version 1) but after some players thought it was too hard i made various battles easier in version 2 but I did not change the boss.

    When I make the 3rd version update I will put that challenge in front of me to fix on top of making improvements.

    Thanks again,
