  Scirra.com really isn't very reliable and is quite slow, I'm hesitant to add a backwards link at this stage. Currently all links go Scirra.com > Construct.net and I don't want to add any going Construct.net > Scirra.com where possible.

  Long term plan was to move the store over, as you've identified it's pretty much the last thing to move over to Construct.net

  However, it is a huge project so if it does happen, it won't happen any time soon. For the forseable future, the Scirra.com store will stay as it is.

  Comments should be disabled on Scirra.com website. We're in the process (albeit slow) of shutting down scirra.com and moving everything over to Construct.net.

  Usage and sales have been growing every year since we've released it. Our model is working. Closing this thread as it's been discussed to death.

  If you don't like our pricing decisions, you're welcome to look at other software.

  Please don't bump old topics, and I believe we've resolved this for you in support already? Wait times take longer when there is a weekend in between as well.

  Email tomoqk@scirra.com your usernames and I’ll import them.

  Re invalid runtime script, if you email me your zip as well I can take a look.

  raikoification if you're new to Construct, make sure to only use the latest stable releases. Beta releases can contain bugs, and are not as thoroughly tested.

  To run offline, you need to open C3 and wait for a notification to appear in the corner saying C3 is ready to use offline. If you close it before then, it hasn't finished downloading everything it needs so won't work offline. Once you see the notification, visiting editor.construct.net will work even if you are offline.

  Make sure C3 is available for use in offline mode as it will then run all features enabled even if on the rare occasion where the website is experiencing issues.

  We identified performance degradation linked to the roll out of the new arcade (namely from significant increase in visitors including web crawlers). In response we've taken a few steps to significantly improve performance, and are upgrading our webservers to add additional capacity. From what I'm measuring, everything should be running a lot smoother now.

  Looking into this, looks like a possible Azure network problem. It seems to of resolved itself as of time of writing.

  raikoification what version are you using? The saves are not tied to our network at all as far as I am aware.

  Thanks for the kind comments! A lot of work has gone into it.

  MP3's are now supported. And I like your character drawings in your game!
