  • Sorry everyone! This will be fixed when I upload a new version of the site in a couple of hours - and I'll look into making sure this doesn't happen again.

  • Hi Sebastien,

    It's a good idea, but the addon exchange would be the wrong place for it. It's designed specifically for product addons, not demo/example files. I imagine the new arcade might be a better place to host these.

  • Yes, and it'll be a lot better

  • We were under NDA so couldn't talk about it, but it's now available in the latest beta:

  • Thanks for the positive words everyone, and yes it is a good boost to everyone at Scirra when we see posts like this! I really appreciate it.

    I think in the past we've given a bit too much oxygen to non constructive posts - it's something we're starting to put a stop to at an earlier point in such threads as it doesn't do anyone any good. Again though I have to say, constructive posts are always welcome.

    We enjoy engaging in the community, so no plans to stop that! In fact with since Laura joining us we're making much more of an effort to be connected.

    Everyone in the team is working really hard, and has been for years. We've always been hesitant to give dates for releases/features as we don't want to over promise - but we always do deliver and I'm happy some of you recognise that. We've always also tried to be fair when making adjustments to our services/products to existing customers. Sometimes we make mistakes, but we always try our best to correct and learn from them.

    There's lots of exciting stuff on the horizon (new runtime performance numbers look extremely exciting), and on the website front we're having a new full time dev join us at the end of April so there's plenty more to look forward to this year.

    Constructive discussion around C3 is allowed. The thread linked to ended up not being constructive. Locking this thread as there's nothing more to say on the matter. Feel free to email me personally if you have issue with this instead of opening more threads.

    This thread, like the others has run it's course. Locking.

    If you don't want to pay $99 p/y for Construct 3, my suggestion is don't!

    Construct 2 continues to be maintained as promised.

  • It should work - timeout is probably due to a gateway not being available. Drop us an email and we'll sort it out for you and look at what happened.

  • Thought about this a little more, all you'd need is a Bitcoin plugin that can query transactions on an address. That would then let you do IAPs in your game easily. I might try and make my first plugin for fun as this seems so simple!

  • You need server side integration to validate payments properly - no matter what currency you're using (USD or BTC).

    I guess with crypto's you could have something along the lines of "Send x BTC here to unlock the next level", and then the game could look on the block chain, but this isn't really a secure implementation as the check should be done from an authority server not the client. It's an interesting idea though.
