i have the animations working correctly for up, down, left, and right, but when I hit the up and right arrows the animation freezes( while the player is still moving correctly because I have the animations pinned). do I just need to make diagonal directions if I want it to move with the 8 directional behaviour to eliminate the wonkiness or is there a way to just use 4 directions.

very true. I have to make a second game for the class and now that I've had a lot of trial and error, I think you're right about the process being shortened.

thanks again for looking.

btw, I like the fact that you're game doesn't reset the coins when you die. it would have been brutal to try and buy anything in the shop.

thanks for the playing and thanks for the constructive criticism, Its much appreciated. Sucks that it crashed when you were trying to get to the boss. the score is in your pause menu and is updated every time you destroy a monster, but I probably should have said something about that somewhere, or just made it visible on the hud.

I'll keep plugging away, and try to fix some of those problems.

just finished a school demo that I spent about 100 hours on (I think)

please take a look and tell me what you think.

sorry, I borrowed a card from a friend and it worked the first time. I have no idea. thanks again for the help and replies.

I just bought the paid version so I'm learning about families and what not. I have different names for the sprites and I'm working on making sure they all have the same actions. the families feature is pretty sweet.

I was wondering if there is a way to copy an enemy a few times, and place it throughout a single layout without it doing strange things. right now I have 1 enemy copied and pasted 3 times, but their movements and attacks just kinda get weird or broken the longer I play. Is there something I'm missing (also I don't have the paid version so i can't use families). any help would be appreciated.

I guess I"ll just wait until tomorrow and see if they get back to me. if not, I guess I can figure something else out. I did try another credit card, but I got the same response. oh well.

Yeah, I used a prepaid visa and got a thank you screen but no conformation key in my email, spam, or other. I dunno. I'll just keep making assets for the game and coding in a separate file layout/event sheet (in order to combine them later). hopefully in a couple of days it will all be figured out. I just have an assignment due monday, so I have to keep working. The makers of construct seem to be pretty cool (from what I can gather from the forums) so I'm not worried.

I took a screen shot of the thank you for purchase screen and sent it. I hope that will help.

thanks for your input Joannak.

thanks for your reply. I think I'll just buy a prepaid visa or mastercard from a retail chain because they usually work for international purchases. the strange thing is that it gave me rep points and that's the confusing bit. I'm using construct for a college class and I've run out of events (plus having the ability to use families and subfolders would greatly increase my ability to make a cohesive game), but if that doesn't work, I'll try getting with my bank on a weekday.

thanks again for the help.

I just tried to purchase construct 2 and it declined my card but gave me 119 rep points acting like I had purchased it. My funds are sufficient and I checked over my info to make sure it corresponds(in case I may have buggered up the input). Do you just get the rep points for the attempt at buying contruct 2?

I think you might be in my class, cause were doing the same thing. I've been scouring the forums for alternatives, but it looks like the best way is with the use of arrays(ugh).

I did see something interesting in the forums about web storage, but I don't know if it will help any (its kind of an old post)

but I don't think it will work for your tutorial.
