  • I think some people hope C3 will be the engine that helps them make games. If C2 didn't do that already, it's not a problem related to the engine, but to something else : themselves.

    I am not particularly exited about C3 to be quite honest. The features that were announced sound cool and everything, but for the time being, C2 does the job for me and, while the improvements will be appreciated, I think people are getting a bit over their heads about the whole thing.

    Be patient and make games with C2 for now. Didn't it do the job before C3 was announced?

  • Construct3.com is a landing page, nothing more, from what it seeems. Nothing more, nothing less.

  • I think that's what portable means. Copy the folder. Run it.

  • It sounds good. But it also has a kitschy-value to it too, à la David Lynch's Dune (the whole game makes me think of that). It's not a bad thing though, but that's the feeling it gives me. If that was intended, then great. If not, maybe it's not the right name for it.

    Just my opinion, though.

  • This is looking better and better. Wondering how you're going to put together "level selection" and "metroid-like". From a design perspective, can you tell us more about that choice?

  • What I did in one of my games was to check if they were overlapping, then pick a random instance and it worked. Not sure if it's the best way to do it though.

  • Cool man, keep us updated. Good luck to us both.

  • Hello everybody,

    As a learning project, I decided to make a game per month in 2015.

    I will be updating this thread as months go on. Wish me luck!

    As a sidenote, I'm streaming all development on my twitch channel.

  • Cool. New episodes coming soon guys

  • Have you tried magicam?

  • Wow. Beautiful presentation, animations and cool overall concept. You should show this around a bit more, it's a really cool game. The controls are a bit problematic (because the animations seem to have priority, which is a bad thing most of the time), but the rest is really nice.

  • Better IQ does not mean better threads though. Naji, you're doing the same, all over again...

  • You have to create it inside a group.

  • If the gamedev needs to tell something (a story, or just "say" something) about a white guy, then the main character should be a white guy. If it's about a woman, so be it. About a black jewish punk from Russia? It should be a black jewish punk from Russia.

    It's not all about identification, but also about what the gamedev has and needs to say through his game. Even more, I'd say I can identify to a lot of different people than me, no matter their sex, creed or skin colour. Why? Because they're people first.

    We live in a world where everyone is different and every story is worth telling. Reformatting women - or anyone different - to feel and look more like white straight men in games just cuts away from what games can be and do.
