  • Gave it a shot, mainly because the quirky pixel graphics caught my attention. It’s a fun little game. I didn’t spend too much time to provide a more depth review, but the practice session and then a bit of the actual game was fun. Graphics definitely fit the gameplay.

    Nice job.

  • My C2 projects don’t have any plugins per say, but if I was to drop the capx files directly in a C3 project, does it completely transfer all events nicely or is there hiccups?

    On another point: Those that have switched to Construct 3, what are your pros and cons?’

    My issue, besides one time pricing, is I don’t always have the time to really fine-tune things sometime months on end. That’s why I loved C2...I could spend years working on multiple projects without having to worry about subscription running out.

    Anyone have any good experiencing porting game to XBOX One?

    Thanks for any input. I’m on the verge of taking the leap to C3.

  • Thanks. I switched the jump-through behavior to Solid behavior. I disabled the solid platform if players Y is less than the platform and if enable it back once I jump above it so I can land on it. If I jump up I disable collision for a bit to fall through. Best of all, the player’s walking animation so far has been working.

    Thanks again

  • It is really strange, but I have two platforms. A solid one on the bottom and a Jump-Through on the top.

    The Walking Animation works just fine on the solid platform, but when I jump to the Jump-Through, the animation will often stop working.

    Debugging it shows the player Current Animation: Walking and the Animation Mode: moving, then it switches to Idle animation, but the player still glides forward while the Animation Mode still registers moving. I will press the jump button or another button and it sometimes will correct itself, but not usually.

    This only happens on the Jump_Through platform. Any suggestions?

  • Hey thank you! The video shows exactly what I was looking for. I will have to try your suggestion as well.

    Thanks again.

  • I need for the character to grab a ledge when falling or jumping and then can shimmy left or right along the ledge. I’ve yet to see it done in C2. I accidentally posted this in the C3 forum.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

  • I can’t seem to get my sprite player to jump/fall, grab a ledge, and shimmy it. Anyone ever conquer this and willing to share their events or description? Thank you

  • Okay, my original post looks confusing. Some of those should show Shared Conditions and some should show Sub-Events.

    Oh well, Curious as to if anyone has a smooth way to make it work.

  • Curious if anyone has come up with a way to make the following function in Construct 2:

    D Key Down - Player Simulates Walks Right (Not Mirrored)

    A Key Down - Player Simulates Walks Left (Mirrored)

    Player on Floor

    Player is Moving - Set Animation to "Walk"

    Player on Floor

    Player Not Moving - Set Animation to "Idle"

    Up Key Pressed - Player Simulates Jump

    - Set Animation to "Jump"

    S Key Down - Set Animation to "Crouch"

    Player is moving (or D/A Key Down)

    S Key Down - Set Player Speed to 150

    - Set Animation to "CrouchWalk"

    Space is Pressed - Set Animation to "Throw"

    - Spawn Projectile

    Player mirrored - Set Angle of Motion to 0

    Player is not mirrored - Set Angle of Motion to 180

    S Key Down

    Space is pressed - Set Animation to "Crouch Throw"

    Not working well. Anyone have a CAPX on how to make the Player able to Crouch Throw and Crouch Throw while moving in the Crouch position?

    Thanks

  • I can't seem to get it to upload. I can browse the directory, select the word document in which my tutorial is written out in with images, but when I click to Open/upload the doc it doesn't take. I can copy and paste all the text, but not the images. I'd like to do it all in one swoop & then edit from there. Is there a different approach or can't tutorials accept word docs?

    Thanks

  • Yohoho...not sure if you need more clarification on something. Let me know and I can try to explain better.

  • There is a beat em up platformer and a side scroller template available at the Scirra store. Side scroller is similar mechanics to Golden Axe, but also includes Jumping ability. You just need to swap graphics with your own. Create similar number of frames per each animation (jump, Walk, Combo...etc) to make it easier. Pay attention to the added instance Variables attached to S_Character, S_Platform, and so forth....particularly the "State."

    Not sure, but you can try creating a small sprite and give it the platform behavior. Give your character a Pin Behavior and at start of layout pin your character to the sprite.

    Then set it when you press the desired button simulate sprite to jump. Give it a shot.

  • Thank you. I will.

  • Has anyone managed to get a 2 player split screen to work? If so how did you set it up in the Event Sheet?

    Trying to mess around making a split screen auto runner where 2 players just race and collect items until energy or time is depleted.

    Any help or direction to a tutorial is appreciated.
