yes users can upload their own files,

but I am talking about the links to sample games for example,

or the link to show what the tut does..

these samples now go to a personal dropbox and that is the problem: so many links are broken.

and

I'm not saying making it a 'requirement' per say, I mean, the tut maker can add a link anywhere on the tut he or she likes,

I am saying it would be nice if the tut maker had it available to upload their sample to a Scirra provided link so wouldn't get deleted .....

in fact, maybe it could be a subsection of The Arcade where these type of samples could be downloaded and stored.

Anyway, just a thought.

jayderyu ,

so thumbs up basically.

I am not opposed to buying capx files if they are what I want,

but

I need to play the game first.

Please put the game in the Arcade or upload your game to dropbox

Thanks, I will do my best

Animare I think you will find that Construct 2 can do almost anything you want in 2d. I was using yoyogames Game Maker Studio and I find C2 to be much easier to `code` with and the Scirra software comes with so many working templates AND the forum here and the on-line tutorials have so much useful information and many members eager to help out ... I mean you just got a freebie now from Tobye .... .

Tobye Thanks. I really appreciate that. Would you be OK if I wrote a tutorial on this? Of course I would credit you.

I wrote one tutorial and I just seem to learn better that way <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

orangemicro, hey thanks for this link www.scirra.com/forum/topic45416.html

much appreciated

I was wondering the same thing actually. Have you guys ever considered having a Contest where the winners will get free art provided by Scirra,

( as art seems to be the weakest link in a lot of these games )

and then have the game featured / displayed on the site,

and give the winners receive bonus rep points,

and a special badge on their Gravatar?

IMHO, the games don't even have to be that original, in fact they could be almost exact duplicates of existing games out there on Yepi or wherever ... the key is having high quality art

and its all about showing off C2 and what it can do.

Just a thought....

maybe you should consider posting a more detailed description of what is required and you may be more favorable response.

Just a thought.

I have families and would love to see that... please

zenox98 I see your point but I think you may be over estimating the bandwidth needed to support these files. The bandwidth needed would be very tiny compared to, say, The Arcade.

I just think having working links ( even if it's an old tut ) are important to maintain, as there are always new learners signing up and its the new learners who will be purchasing the software, if they can figure it out ( via tuts)

Just a thought.
