    This thread is starting to get personal so am locking it. Please be civil to each other.

    Locking this thread as it's obviously run it's course.

    For me it had to be pay once. From reading on what C3 will bring compared to C2 it just doesn't give enough to warrant a £99 a year subscription. Game making has always been a hobby for me so I guess C3 just isn't for me. It's a shame as I have enjoyed the interface despite the export setbacks. Native android export would be the only thing that sold me on a yearly sub for C3 but we know that isn't in the plan.

    Just to clarify it's $99 USD not £99. I know this might not change your opinion, but just want to clear that up for anyone else reading.

    Locking this thread. Please keep things civil everyone. I know tempers are running high at the moment, but please respect each other otherwise we'll have to start handing out temp bans.

  • A lot of complaints about mobile support seem to be:

    • Someone else has already done it
    • I don't want to use it

    Granted how productive you can be on the toilet with only one hand free is to be seen. But it's a nice-to-have feature to have because we can, one that people have inquired about in the past and one that appears to be quite popular and well received.

  • [quote:2ssex2oi]Ok but that doesn't answer the question if Chrome breaks it can we run it on the computer or wait for your fix? Will you pay us if the fix takes us longer than a week or month?

    Canary versions will give us a big heads up of any impending breaking changes. Regardless, if something does happen out of the blue offline builds would continue to work.

  • [quote:2el1ouum]That still doesn't answer the question if Chrome breaks C3 , will we be about to run it desktop. Saying that it would never happen is very unrealistic.

    Chrome release "Canary" versions of the browser which are ahead of public release. Construct 3 can be tested on those branches to ensure there are no breaking changes.

    Chrome updates will not be coming out the blue.

  • The others are right, you're getting confused between Construct plugins and browser plugins. Construct 3 will not require and browser plugins to run.

    We're not releasing everything in one go, there's too much to digest.

  • Unfortunately iOS browser has a bit of catching up to do!

  • [quote:17pd75n0]You'd be surprised how flexible CSS can be - you can get very creative with selectors and pseudo elements. If the editor truly is created entirely in HTML5, this will definitely be possible.

    Yep spot on. You can even add content with CSS, eg:

  • Newt makes a good point. Pretty much every other tool has been around for years longer than Construct 2. There's no reason Construct made games can't be as popular as the big hits from other engines, we think it's only a matter of time.

    We see developers using Construct all the time who obviously have the talent and creativity, just a bit more luck is needed!
