  • My own game is now also available on itch.io!

    Brick Breaker X: Rescue Rush:

    Congrats!!!!!

  • Highlight layout1 in right pane. Now set the Event Sheet choice in the Layout Properties. Repeat for layout2.

    If you want to include the events from one in another you can add an #include to reference the other. That works well if you want to make say a GlobalEventSheet or GlobalVariables eventsheet

    Hope this helps.

  • First off this is not a Construct 2 issue. This is not a node-webkit issue... This is a M$ issue...

    As some of you know I was recently greenlit. I am working on building my buildscript for steam deployment. My main release is Node-Webkit.... I really really don't want to force the user to install the dxwebsetup.exe package that has the bing bar options... Steam offers common redistributables like Direct X (June 2010) for automatic deployment...

    Two Questions..

    -Is the steam redistributable good enough and does it include the directx "web" components or just the windows components? I'm using FILEMON to try and snoop at the differences presently...

    -Does anyone have any experience deploying dxwebsetup.exe SILENTLY in a steam install script and if so would you be willing to show me how?

  • 6000 Sounds about spot on. What pushed me over the edge was offering my game free on Desura for one day and getting a reddit chain going. I had 20,000 visitors on desura that day! Carefully link to the Desura Game and the Greenlight Page in large lettering if you plan on doing this. If I would have let that campaign run for 48 hours I think I could have gotten all the votes I would have needed in two days. Good luck!! Really love your game.

  • I was greenlit

  • Thanks for the votes all. I am greenlit!!!

  • Has anyone worked with the greenworks that could give a quick "for dummies" explanation of implementing achievements in a Node-Webkit C2 project?

  • Thanks! Luna will be free to download on Desura 10/10/14.

    As for Groupees just send them an email inquiry on their site. They are great to work with.

  • Try Construct 3

  • It might not be exactly what you are looking for but what I normally do prior to importing images:

    Note: This requires Photoshop.

    Hide flatten and hide layers until you have just the element \animation showing in Photoshop that you want to crop.

    Navigate to Edit -> Trim

    This will Trim just the truly transparent pixels as efficiently as possible

    File -> Save For Web -> PNG -> Ensure transparency is checked

    Save it.

    Then Undo in PS until you get back to desired state and repeat for the next animation/layer.

    This works good from Spriter too when you are wiring up body parts.....

  • That was a lot of fun to play. Congrats!

    That Checkout widget you used... does that automated installer delivery too? I'm curious how you achieved that or if it's just a Paypal Widget?

  • Thank you.

  • The game listed today on Desura for $4.99. Can you add a link? I think I am in indieGala the week of the 8th. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile"> We'll see what happens.

  • Tetriser Thank you. I should be on Desura sooon. They are reviewing my installer now. BTW resource hacker is good to change the exe icon and innosetup rocks for making deployment packages.

  • Very nice list. I will make sure and upvote all of these. We need to make a special 'Upvote Day' or something on C2 forums so we can mutually support each other. ;-P The more C2 games that make it the better for everyone.

  • Thanks All! I am most likely going to be in IndieGala in August via Desura... so wish me luck!
