Add debug output to your event 109, for example:

Browser -> Log "Boss Jumping"

Then open console (F12) in your browser and check if it's triggered.

If it is, but the boss is still not jumping, my guess is that when you change animation to "Jump", the collision polygon appears above the ground, so the platform can't perform the jump.

Try changing animation after "Simulate jump" action.

In Construct 2 click "File->New" and select "Example: Tilemaps"

Of course it's possible. Just change "On key pressed" to "Key is down"

Thanks R0J0hound ! This is a really nice demo!

Is it possible to use custom web font? (I don't know JS...)

I mentioned Star Wars opening text as an example of "a creative and fun idea", but it will not fit the purpose - reading lots of achievements like this will be very annoying for the player.

I don't necessarily need very cool visual effects, just something more interesting than 3 buttons with 3 text areas.

You can access Local Storage only from the game.

You can use "Overlapping at offset" event.

If your character is crouching, on every tick check if its "Is Overlapping Ceiling at offset (0,-10)" for example.

If overlapping, remain crouching, else set full size.

Or probably an easier solution would be this:
On every tick Character set size (full) Character Is overlapping Ceiling -> Character set size (crouching) [/code:pkpi2kge] Because it's done in one tick, the character will only be rendered once - either standing or crouching.

Why can't you open my project?

If you have an older version of Construct2, rename my capx file to zip, unpack to a folder, open .caproj file in Notepad and edit this line:

<saved-with-version>24400</saved-with-version>

You can change it to 23900 or whatever version you have.

Letters as sprites? I'm planning to release the game with at least 3 languages, among which is Japanese. This means hundreds of frames and many hours of work... So no, I can't do this.

Besides, the text is not static. How do I calculate the exact positions of each letter? I guess this can be done with a sprite font, but again this will be not be an easy task.

Or you can set "Global=yes" for this sprite. When you change layout, the sprite will not be destroyed and will keep all its properties, variables etc.

If you only want to save some data, use Local Storage:

Do you want to save scores/game progress locally? You can use Save/Load feature or Local Storage.

Nice idea, but I have no clue how to do this...

Making hundreds of floating stars, somehow transforming them into letters and arranging into words seems like a very difficult task. Maybe use blend mode to reveal letters on a big text object?
