  • You guys are making this way too complicated

    Fix: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17634050/Zelda%20II_fix.cap

    (Also fixes a bug where you can't attack in-air while holding down)

    Kinda had to re-do all of your events lol.

    Also, if I may.. Link is supposed to have 3 walking frames, less friction, and pulls his sword back before and after attacking. You're also using the wrong frames for jumping. Aaaand you might want to make a 'base' or 'collision mask' for Link or he will get hung on ledges and stuff. Ok I'm leaving now..

  • "A new time scaling feature for C2 is you can set individual object's time scales. For example, you can have the entire game go in to super-slo-mo (time scale 0.2), and keep your player on normal time (time scale 1.0). The whole world is going slow but you can run round at full speed!"

    You have no idea how badly I've wanted that feature XD I never thought it was possible. Great update!

  • *******

    about with inventories and stuff.

    Quite a ***** to do..

    New Metroid game?

  • - Tilemap Plugin. I cannot stress how absolutely useful this would be for users in general, and a good portion of the community has been clamoring for it since the 0.x days.

    I was hoping there would be more talk of this early on. I feel it will keep being pushed aside, eventually forgotten, and never implemented..or that by the time it's brought up again, it'll be too late..or something.

  • I'd say it's definitely possible to create large games in Construct. However, I'd suggest spending good time on a smaller project first to figure out what works and what doesn't. I used to get a lot of crashes and find bugs and stuff, but over time I've learned how to avoid them. Construct hasn't crashed for me once on my latest projects

  • Super buggy so far. Will try it out again later once it figures out that my internet connection is, in fact, working. -w-;;

  • This has been happening to me since .85

  • The Iconoclasts "demo", hands down.

  • Ethnobotany.

    Nah, not really. I make music and graphics whenever I'm not programming..but for my games, so I guess they don't count!

    I used to do flameworking as a hobby (making stuff with glass and a giant torch, not spitting fire lol) but that got really expensive and it sucked working with that stuff in a shed next to a propane and oxygen tank (effectively a bomb and a torpedo) so I sold everything!

    Aside from that I occasionally play drums, guitar, and bass. I was in a few metal bands for a while but then I found FL Studio [:B I'm planning on starting a salt water aquarium and getting a peacock mantis shrimp, but that's also reeeally expensive!!

  • But back to the question, what shall be the minimal resolution for a platformer in 2011?

    96x80

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Wow! Great work guys

  • Make everyone be able to make some money by letting people post their stuff for others to pay to have in their games. Then you can take some percent of the sale.

    Why would you want that? If that's the case you could end up paying thousands for Construct, plus the cost of plugins and the like instead of what, ~$300 for a commercial license?

  • Yeah there are a few effects that don't have parameters when trying to use them with families. It's really annoying. I've resorted to giving a family object multiple versions of an effect with different parameters to work around this, but it really sucks. Does this have something to do with Construct or the creators of the effects?

  • I've been dreading the day I'd have to learn the S plugin Oh well, better now than never.

  • > Anyway, the horizontal scroll bar is there, but it doesn't show up until an item on the list is longer than the width of the box. Also, the vertical bar doesn't show up until there are so many items in the box that they no longer fit.

    >

    I've got items longer than the width of the box but it doesn't show up.

    Oh, wow. My bad! The vertical bar shows up when there are too many items to fit, so I assumed the same happened with the horizontal bar. I guess it hasn't been implemented then.
