  Hmm... all behaviors should have a full set of actions and expressions to set and get all properties, and then you would just set them after creating the object. I've added to my todo list to make sure Sine behavior can have all its properties set with actions. Are there any other behaviors missing actions?

  Looks more like a GameMaker alternative. There are alternatives to Construct as well... have you seen Game Develop?

  I considered this for the main engine (I remember reading the article you linked to) but decided not to include it in the main engine because it would use a lot of extra VRAM if used a lot (bad news for mobile), and I couldn't see a way to get it to work with opacity. But still, it makes for a nice plugin for those who need it despite that, so nice work :)

  Could you share your .capx with the problem?

  That's weird! Glad to hear it's resolved though.

  Currently the tech doesn't work and despite activity on their twitter feed I've heard nothing back from them... not particularly impressed right now...

  MakkaOleba, could you explain exactly what you find to be a problem with the Audio object and why it's a problem in the free edition? Often you just need to add 'play' actions to existing events, so it doesn't even increase your event count.

  Featured games are basically just staff picks. We try to rotate them from time to time.

  Oh, you don't need to know any programming at all to use Construct 2, you just need to use the event system :) On the other hand if you know some Javascript you can play with the SDK to make your own plugins and behaviors as well.

  Thanks, glad to hear you enjoy Construct 2! I think the best thing you can do is help spread the word, like you say you've been doing - word of mouth is a great way to help promote us.
