You might want to take a look in C2 at the Examples, there is one in there that does a flashlight effect "Lighting", maybe that can help give you ideas.

Autosave, if that is added, make it configurable (on/off). I dropped a tool that had Autosave on everything and I couldn't turn it off. Problem was if I wanted to make changes and see the effects and then close I could not. :(

Hello, so I finally got my first game out, its terrible, low quality, but I used it to learn C2 and GET SOMETHING out to market, as you read all over the net, you aren't a game developer until someone is playing your game. So, well I am not one yet :) but I got a game out, more to come.

Anyhow I put a simple one level breakout clone on the Chrome Store free, "Dual Battle", search for it give me your feedback. The twist I threw in there was a second paddle at the top of the screen, I haven't seen that before so thought hey that could be interesting.

Take a look please comment I know it has bugs and isn't pretty to look at but I needed to get something out to build my desire that I can actually make something and keep at this and build more and better down the road.

Also wanted to see if I could take an idea from Zero to Store and if so then C2 is for sure worth my money and will make the BUY later today. Ashley and Tom keep up the work, you have an excellent platform and I am excited to see what comes next.

I am going to post the .capx, nothing in there that you can steal all really basic and probably poorly done. But would appreciate any of your comments on how to do X better.

No tips on Window Size? Any idea how to know what was used for the C2 Space Blaster on Chrome?

Thanks

Brett

So I finally put something simple together and put it up on the Chrome Store in Test, but I am having a hard time with the window size, no matter what I do the window created by Chrome has scroll bars and dosen't see to be the size I set in the C2 Project.

Anyone run into this/have experience with Chrome Store project? I suspect I should/need to edit the manifest after export to tweak some values. Would appreciate any help you have. I have ready the Articles about Publishing to the Chrome Store and the one about Supporting Multiple Window Sizes, but this is different, my app is not running as expected.

Thanks

Brett

That makes sense as I look at my logic and really think what you both say makes sense. DUH, thank you.

Hello, So I understand the "System: Every Tick" Condition, executes the Actions inside of it, every tick, but how is that different from Conditions that are just listed at the top level outside of Every Tick, they too execute every Tick, I am confused. :(

Thanks

This is exciting, just the push I need to get some apps completed. I read the details and the promo is running up to June 30 OR until they receive 10,000 app submissions, that sort of sucks because I would imagine if they haven't gotten 10,000 by now that is coming soon. I am going to see what I can do, fun to have a deadline.

Brett

Looks interesting, set to download to my andriod shortly. I assume since Google Play is Android you used PhoneGap to export and build an .apk? Can you give a few details on the steps you took to get this to Google Play?

Thanks

Brett

Really nice design, reminds me of the TV show lost. Nice Work!

So WebStorage of HTML5 acts very much like cookies, but if more flexible. It does persist like Ashley said after all browsers are closed and after the computer has been turned off. But its downside is IF a user clears their cookies AND unchecked (in IE) the Preserve Favorites and Websites data checkbox it will clear the WebStorage.

You cannot write to XML or other files for long term storage because as someone has previously said, that is a limit imposed by the Browser and is a security violation.

So posting to a website/URL and that triggering a save to an online database is the only option I can think of at this time. You can also allow players to play offline and when they are back online have it save to the web those changes, but not sure how that would be coded in C2.

The ideal long term solution would be for C2 to enable support for SQL Lite databases on the local computer much like Apps do on Mobile.

Very Nice Zatyka, I like the onMouseDown popup some options. Great little demo.
