  Can anyone confirm it's working or not? I'm hoping it just not me :).

  I'm having the same problem with r101. I upload, test and just get a black screen still. Anyone having success uploading to Chrome Store since r95?

  There actually seems to be a few plugins that do this :).

  With AJAX you need to supply a URL. In my case, the information in the url I use to launch the game might change with each visitor.

  So when someone goes to my game url using iretrogames.com/html5/word

  I need construct to bring in thisinfo into a global variable if possible.

  Say I launch my game with the url iretrogames.com/html5/word?info=moreinfo

  Is there a way for C2 to bring in that value of info? In this case, moreinfo.

  Thanks

  Ed

  Yeah, I just realized the same. I purchased a personal version months ago. I never even realized you are suppose to have a badge until I saw this thread :).

  Ashley, this is the manifest generated by Construct. So construct is generating it wrong?

  This was an issue in r99, hoping it would be fixed in 100. I export to Chrome Web Store. When I go to upload my game, I get:

  An error occurred: Invalid version format in manifest.

  Any idea when this might get fixed? Or is it already and I am doing something wrong?

  Here is a copy of the manifest that was generated.

  {

       "name": "Kaplow",

       "description": "Catch the bombs before they go KAPLOW!",

       "version": "1.02",

       "manifest_version": 2,

       "app": {

            "launch": {

                 "local_path": "index.html"

            }

       },

       "icons": {

            "16": "icon_16.png",

            "128": "icon_128.png"

       },

       "permissions": [           "unlimitedStorage"      ],

       "offline_enabled": true

  }

  You would need to post the CAPX file on a webserver or dropbox. You linked to a file on your hard drive.

  Have a global variable for Timer and ButtonCount

  Every Tick at dt to Timer. This will create a timer

  Every time A is pressed, add 1 to ButtonCount.

  If ButtonCount >= 5 and Timer <= 5 then

  Spawn special attack

  Of course the number 5 can be changed. With this example, A has to be hit 5 times before the timer reaches 5 seconds.

  You will need to make the timer reset each time the button is pressed as well so you know if they hit A in the allotted time.   Play around with it. I'm sure you will get it :).
