Sounds like they spent a ton of time re-inventing the wheel. A game like that could have been made much easier using C2 for example. He spent months porting XNA to IOS. For what?!?!?!

ou don't need to be able to draw, you just need to be able to keep going until it looks good.

so true.

I find this hard to get over myself as well. But draw something...anything...then step back, ask yourself or other's "what's working" what isn't and improve it. Then repeat.

simply move the destroy action to after your finger is lifted off the screen. (eg: is NOT in touch)

event

touch (is in touch) -> right click and pick "invert" thus making it "is not in touch

action -> "last touched object(s)" destroy

You've already kinda answered your own question.

First you would check which enemy is selected, and store that in a variable. Then you would check the distance between the player and the enemy is withing striking distance. And if so, start playing a loop of the attack animation, and apply damage every X seconds to the selected target.

If you live in the states, hit up your local 7-11 and buy a greendot prepaid visa card ($5). You load up as much money in cash as you want, then you can use it just like a regular credit card for online purchases.

Export it as a html5 project and copy the output directory to your flash drive. Then when you are at the new computer, load up the index.html file into your favorite browser and voila!

I haven't tried this myself at all yet, but couldn't you disable the scrollto behavior anytime the player's position is less than half of the layout width?

then it will only pickup each time they cross the mid point of the screen?

eg:

system every tick

player.x <= layout.width/2 -> disable scrollto

else

enable scrollto

trigger once
