I was wondering if it's possible to make this kind of game using construct 2 - such as gaining points by entering each box and moving the playable characters by touching the player's character rather than button inputs??

this is indeed possible to make with C2. Your players can be moved withput buttons. Here's an example of multiple touch inputs I made once Multiple Touch Inputs

And this would be the appropriate thread to that where I provide a capx.

And to raise someones points by entering a box is like the most easy thing to do on construct 2 :D

I havent found an option to change the hue of a sprite yet in construct 2 .. maybie because i never needed it.

but you can simpli create these effects with hue and opacity at once if you just create an animation. Edit your sprite with Photoshop and create a Frame for every step you want. then add all the animation frames to you sprite and set up something like:

EnemyB(ullet?) - On collision with player: start animation by name "gotHit"

of course you have to set the animation speed in your sprite editor to 0, because the animation is running by default.

I guess this would also be more resource efficient since at least mobile devices need a lot of memory for things with opacity calculations. (correct me if I'm wrong)

Hey friends!

I stumbled over the documentation for Android Developers to Support multiple screen sizes.

Android Developers

Basicly what they are telling is that you can create an appropriate layout for different screen sizes.

"Android supports several configuration qualifiers that allow you to control how the system selects your alternative resources based on the characteristics of the current device screen."

"For example, the following is a list of resource directories in an application that provides different layout designs for different screen sizes and different bitmap drawables for medium, high, and extra high density screens.

res/layout/my_layout.xml             // layout for normal screen size ("default")

res/layout-small/my_layout.xml       // layout for small screen size

res/layout-large/my_layout.xml       // layout for large screen size

res/layout-xlarge/my_layout.xml      // layout for extra large screen size

res/layout-xlarge-land/my_layout.xml // layout for extra large in landscape orientation"

My question is: Can i implement such things in my source code after i wrappted my C2 project with CocoonJS?

cheers!

allright. thanks for the answer

yeah i read that thread before .. but I just don't get the hang of it .. I guess i just have to play around with it by myself and then check back after i made some experience with it.

simply amazign!

this page seems intresting, thanks for sharing

Allright now we have OUYA support on CocoonJS! but I can't work with OUYA controls in C2, can I? Has anyone ever tried use the C2 Gamepad controls with an OUYA Gamepad ?

Dropbox error.

I would like to see that "masterpiece" too since i'm making a game with jellyfishes.

I just tried push.com/5mbFt but didn't get something to show up .. :D

check out my Thread about my game:

scirra.com/forum/handling-4-players-combine-Events_topic79229_page1.html

I documented a whole lot about my game. on the second page of comments there's an updated version. In that capx there's more or less a whole game with touch inputs.

If you want a touch analog joystick or something like this check out my main thread, i posted a Live Demo of my Old verison

scirra.com/forum/jelly-jam-single-device-multiplayer_topic79180_post468952.html

I could send you the capx if you need it.

Also, link your old thread which no one answered to.

you can change gravity options at the behaviour's properties .. or do something like this:

on start of layout -> set "player" gravity to 0

Next time a Live demo or a .capx would be helpful ;)

there is actually a nice tutorial in youtube. The channel is called "ConstructDude" or something and he explains how to make such a "terraria" swinging sword animation quite nicely. Maybie you should check it out in addition.

so i guess you have to make the gamer bigger than the actual screen so a bigger device just sees more of the game .. right?

I have the same problem.

Can I somehow stick my controls to the screen corners so they will be nicely placed in the corners on every device? Maybie with Anchor behaviour? but i haven't been working with that yet.
