  • <Bug> Using special chars in descriptions is causing an error (e.g. "<", ">")

    Fixed for next upload

    <Bug> Official plugin documentations are causing a "Runtime Error"

    Fixed for next upload

    <Bug> Adding a line "hr" doesn't seem to work

    Seems to work for me, if the HR is the first or last thing on the document it will remove it by design for style reasons.

    <Bug> Using "h1, h2, h2" with other types of formatting like "bold" or "italic" doesn't seem to work

    Looking into this

    <Feature Request> Downloadable Construct 3 official addons

    Chatted to Ash about this, unlikely will be doing this.

    <Feature Request> Automatically update/refresh existing preview window instead of opening a new one

    Probably not for now, although I'd like to add this. Is a lot of work. On my list of things I'd like to do!

    <Feature Request> Transparency for addon icons and less/better compression

    Transparency is supported but is on a white background when rendered on the site as a by design style choice. RE bad compression, can you send me by email an icon that you uploaded which isn't compressing well?

  • .fx now allowed, if you run into any other dissallowed extensions email me on tom at scirra and I'll add it.

  • Hello!

    I've added an addon exchange for both Construct 2 and Construct 3:

    Construct 2 Addon Exchange

    https://www.construct.net/construct-2/addons

    Construct 3 Addon Exchange

    https://www.construct.net/make-games/addons

    The addon exchange is hosted on Construct.net as previously explained because our eventual goal is to shut down Scirra.com and make Construct.net the home of everything Construct 2 and Construct 3.

    There's a few more features to add - but it's basically complete. We hope in the future to add some sort of API so you can manage/update your addons from the editor directly, but that might take some time to complete!

    Please do NOT upload addons to these exchanges unless you are the copyright holder otherwise your account may be suspended.

    At some point in the future, this will support paid addons. But for now, it's open source only.

    Back sorry - my fault was a bug!

    We've sold C2 to Zynga and King in pretty good numbers to name a couple. Don't think they have published games with C2, so am guessing they are using it for internal prototyping.

  • Thanks for the email - was regarding a small bug where the discount was not included when a different currency was selected. This is now resolved and refunds where applicable have been issued.

  • Hi all,

    We're now accepting Paypal payments for Construct 3. We're not widely publicising this until next week to make sure everything is working smoothly.

    At checkout, simply select Paypal from the drop down menu and go from there. Any bugs, please email them directly to me at

  • The discount/free year starts when you purchase Construct 3. If you have 100% off your first year, you still have to enter credit/debit details then your free year starts.

    Currently there is no expiration on these discounts set.

  • They should all work with C3, unless they use third party plugins that have not yet been ported to C3.
