  • Well that was a part of it, sadly it clashed with other elements of my events sheet and caused a bit of a meltdown.... well I think it was that.

    I also added some other things like health and ammo refills and something broke. When the player dies he disappears and will not reappear when layout restarts. Just when I thought I had the core code nailed. Sigh. Ah well I will tackle it tomorrow. I know it will be one thing that is causing the elementsame to clash.

  • that was certainly part of it, thank you. now I just need to see what is going on with the placement of those objects... But I think I can figure that out.

  • no... I'm guessing that's an easy fix? time to have a play with that.

  • At present I have to bring the sprite and playerbox and attack box and camerabox into each layout and then resize and place boxes. Is there a way to have this happen automatically when I bring in the player box? I tried using containers but it didn't work.

    Also is there a way to copy a whole layer to a new layout?

  • I'm adding basic sounds early and some music, however that will change before completion, I just got fed up of testing it in silence.

  • I'm reading, i have no idea as i'm not yet ready to market one. Perhaps find app review sites(I assume some exist) and send it to them in hope of a little exposure.

  • Epic looking, I see the D&D is an inspiration for you too.

  • I think so, just about to try it out. Still very new to the construct 2 so fingers crossed I do it correctly.

    JUBBLY!

    It worked a treat, thanks very much guys.

  • Hi, this has been bugging me for the last hour or so and I cannot find an answer to it. How do I make a character invincible after being damaged? I have a kind of knock back effect but it still leaves the player in harms way.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Here is a screen shot from my first proper game project. I'm still learning the software as have only had it a week or so. I'm aiming for a Sega Megadrive/Genesis look to the graphics.

  • 37, I used to make games with the shoot em up construction kit on the... I keep thinking c64 but maybe it was amiga... it was a long long time ago.

    I never made a game but I looked at game maker but coding scared me away and this looked easier to get started. I've made an asteroids clone and some odd little platformers using premade content, but now I'm working on a retro looking platformer with 16 bit style graphics I'm making from scratch.

  • That makes sense. I'll try that when I get home. Thanks for the assist. It seems there is a nice helpful community here.

  • Hi, I'm very new to this, in fact I'm now losing my posting virginity on this forum.

    Apologies if this has been asked before, but i couldn't find it. Anyway... what I'm aiming to do is have an attack activated on a double jump and use a separate animation from main jump.

    I'm assuming having an invisible box for damage to activate as needed, but I can't even get the animation to activate.

    Thanks in advance.
