Hey, thanks for the comment. I don't know what Spritely is (I'm guessing a tool to make the sprite sheet ? :p).

For the sprite, I'm creating and animating everything myself with flash.

For the spell check, you're right, I'll do a double check, I just recently realized the mistake for "ennemy", I always wrote it with double N (because in French, it is double N ahah) :x Correcting that in next version !

Hi all !

It took me more time than expected but here is the new version.

I'm currently looking for beta tester to try the game and point out any bug encountered.

Besides this, there are also answers I would need :

• How long did you need to finish this version (when reaching the 2 village) ?
• How about the difficulty ? Is it too hard or too easy ?
• What do you think of the current boss ?
• Who's your favorite hero so far and why ?

If some people would be so kind as to answer those, it would help me greatly to improve the game.

Important notice : I know stages lack a lot in content and decor, they will be added later on. Bosses design will also be reworked later on.

I'm currently working on the next champion, the summoner as well as its own quest.

More information later in the week !

Thanks !

Though it's not my domain, I'm trying quite hard to have a game not too ugly :p

I will update the alpha version with latest mechanisms and graphics soon.

Also, I forgot to ask about the biggest english forums for indies to present their project. Since I mostly promoted on french forums, I don't have much information about the english indie community.

If you'd be so kind as to give me some tips about it, that would be really helpful !

Hi all,

I recently updated the graphics of the game for something more enjoyable :

<img src="http://spooky-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/screen8.jpg" border="0" />

The website of the game has also be updated with Wordpress, for easier communication.

spooky-heroes.com

And to finish for today's update, I added a 3rd hit for the basic combo which causes a knockdown on ennemies if fully hit by the combo. Added to that the possibility to finish ennemy on ground, this should increase the pace of the game as well as its interest.

More to come in the following days.

Hi everybody !

After more than 2 years of planning, development, mistakes and promotions, Spooky Heroes has finally been released on Steam.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/486500/

I'd like to thank you all for your support and help all this time !

I've not been clear enough.

I'm creating a platform game where the player can visit towns and enter shops to buy items.

When he enters a building, the interior of the shop appear and the items are displayed. Those items are already in the layout.

Now my aim is this :

When the player collided with an item, he can click a button to buy it. When bought, a copy of this item appear near the player.

The problem is there are many different items and I would like to avoid to create one line of code for each one of them to create a copy of the item purchased.

Is there a way to clone an object from the layout during an event ?

Hi,

I would like to know if a feature allowing to clone a sprite directly in code was available.

Or if creating an object with a dynamic name has been introduced.

I already read from here :

scirra.com/forum/families-create-specific-object-type_topic48502.html

It's not possible but this post is from last year.

Have things evolved ?

And I also know the trick with creating an sprite containing many different frame but I'm not a fan of this work around.

Any advices ?

Thanks

Hum, can't find the button to edit first post to change subject to [SOLVED]. Or maybe there's no need on this forum ?

Ok,

So following your point, I checked my Java version.

It appears I had 4 different version of java installed at the same time... 3 version 6 (update 25,26 and 31) and one version 7 (update 40)

Strangely, C2 was using the old version 6, when my browser detected the 7.

So here are all the steps I did to correct :

• Uninstall all versions of Java
• Download Java (Be careful here, if you use C2 64Bit, you need Java 64Bit which is not the regular download, check this page to download manually the 64Bit version of Java :

  java.com/fr/download/faq/java_win64bit.xml)[/li]

Install Java 64

Restart C2

Open retro style template

Export HTML5 and Node Webkit

Both are working now

On my first download of Java, I got the 32 Bit without knowing and when I tried to export, C2 showed me the message about this mistake.

So in conclusion, I'm really thankful for your tip as this Java problem might alos be the cause of crashes for others of my games, and my C2 export finally works !

Thanks a lot !
