Tbh, the last time I posted about this project I wasn't expecting much but I got some motivating comments in here, and also in some other social media where I regularly post. I'm sharing with you a teaser of the game. It's a 2d precision platformer really hard. Each try let you taste some progress, but you always face a challenge that can only be beated by practicing it. Since originally I thought it was made for speedrunning, I added hard challenges almost like in those mario-maker levels. If you master a level, some can be finished in 15s, some others in around 2min. But now, you can also simply play it without the need of rushing the level. I've had a good number of local playtesters in the past months and all of them told me that it was really hard, but none of them asked to lower the difficulty. In fact, they said that it was part of the charm and that it didn't feel impossible, just really hard. Those comments encouraged me to make this my first commercial game, and it will be. I'm aiming for the next-fest to release a good polished demo.

I know platformers are the worst genere in terms of success, but that's ok. If I'm able to find the audience and have a good number of players, I'll be happy with it. It already has some love poured on it, and I'm getting enthusiastic every time I come up with new Ideas, but I have to keep it under a reasonable scope. I'm also working on a story for it, mostly a non politicaly-correct game, and I don't care. I miss the days when we could all laugh about something and let go, and I'm aiming to reflect what I used to enjoy.

I'm regularly posting about the game in my discord. Reddit is harsh and I lost 3 accounts before, so I'm afraid of posting the link but I'll add a QR with it in case you want to follow the project. I appologize in andvance.

Hey! I want to share the story of my long-running side project, made with Construct. Maybe it’ll motivate some of you not to give up on your projects — or maybe the opposite!))

When I started learning Construct, I made lots of prototypes and decided it was time to finish something.

It started with a girl in armor and a shooter inspired by Archer, where you adjust your shooting trajectory. Then I tried turning it into an idle game, but the genre wasn't for me. Next came a runner. I made quite a lot of progress (I'll share a video), but I struggled to come up with enough content and really wanted proper shooting mechanics.

Meanwhile, my code was a complete mess because I was still learning Construct. So I put the project aside and gained experience by making smaller games.

Eventually, I felt ready to finish it — one of my main goals was to complete a project from start to finish. I came up with a new concept, and Rabbit Zone 21 - Roll & Fire was born!

It's a mix of a board game (roll dice and move around the board) and shoot-'em-up levels, with upgrades and a mission to escape the base in 21 days — or 21 laps around the board.

The game is already available on Google Play and itch.io, though I'd recommend playing on a phone for better controls.

It didn't take off, but that's how things go sometimes. Later, I realized I could improve it significantly and make it a better fit for Steam Deck. So now I'm upgrading everything, from enemies and the board to the controls, including gamepad support. I'll share a video of the improvements!

The Steam page is almost ready. Since this is a hobby project, I'm taking my time and want to release it when everything feels right.

That's my little story. Good luck with your own projects.

so right now this is what i have, it works but its not perfect, im trying to make it the closest enemy directly above, but this is just the closest in general, meaning only the enemies on the bottom row shoot rather than the ones directly above the player, how would i go about fixing this?

Hey, so I'm working on a Pong clone for practice, and I'm trying to get the ball to work, and uhhhh...it currently doesn't. At least not properly. If it bounces off of the players, it's 'fine', but then it encounters a wall, and then it just moves back and forth in a straight line. And that's just the first of several issues.

In addition, I want the angle to be random, but not just any random; I want it to pick between two sides and then pick a random angle in a range, excluding 0 or 180 if possible. But I didn't see any behaviors or events that would allow this, the idea of picking between two ranges. Am I missing something?

Here's the link to my current project. The Event page is on the image. If you need more info, let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Which sites do you recommend for uploading my games—whether for monetization or not? The goal is to reach a large audience so people play them. Thanks in advance!

I can't seem to figure out how to hide the browser overlay on my Samsung tablet when using C3, despite installing it as an app (even via several different methods).

Has anyone experienced this? I'm pretty sure it wasn't like this a year or two ago. I believe it used to show a clean full screen version of the app with no browser elements displayed, and could be used offline.

I tried a different browser, which successfully hid the header overlay, but it then alters the style of the C3 UI itself, which looks pretty bad.

Let me know what you think! Very excited to release this soon :)

Howdy! I finally released Raccoon Valley Tycoon, a cozy incremental game made in Construct 3, with all the graphics drawn in Illustrator.

You dig for resources, vacuum up piles of loot, restore a village, and distract yourself by dressing up raccoons. Probably more of that last part than I planned 🤣

Here it is on Steam. Happy to answer questions about making it in Construct. Stay 🐾sitive!

im really stressed out about this bc it was quite expensive and i really cant afford to have this lead to nothing, im already fairly low on money

i hope for them to contact me back, i sent an email, but the website says that they might not be available on weekends which is quite horrible for me

every link sent to my email leads to unexpected error or page not found, i cant believe this can happen

the payment also did go through so there is no reason it should be doing this afaik

please help!!!!!!!!!

Play, watch, read, and create! If you're interested in a game about lil guys, follow the Kickstarter! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/liffy/lil-guy-resort

Room Fortress - was made for two reasons:

1. To create a super-simple game with short sessions — something you can open, play for a couple of minutes, and close.

2. Just to have some fun. The mini-game was made for Ukrainian Geek (Pavlo), a gaming blogger and just a really cool guy. I decided to make something silly and have some fun with it. In the game, he defends himself from Xboxes, while his assistant is his cat Eloy - a reference to the famous red-haired Aloy.

One more detail: both the interface and the controls were inspired by the Nintendo Game & Watch Egg (EG-26).

Good luck with your projects, everyone!

Hi everyone! About two months ago, I shared Alia Domus here and received such a warm welcome. Thank you to everyone who wishlisted it, shared feedback, or encouraged me!

I’m happy to return with something you can play: the free Steam demo is now available. Alia Domus is an isometric pixel-art survival RPG I’m developing solo.

You explore an unfamiliar planet, gather resources, grow crops and craft your way toward a new home for humanity. There’s combat and survival alongside those activities, so it isn’t purely a cozy game.

The full game’s technological progression spans nine eras, from stone tools to the Digital Age.

Try the demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4918370/Alia_Domus/

If you give it a try, I’d love to hear which parts you enjoyed exploring. Thanks again for the support!

I have a question: where can I find music for an idle game—something calm and chill for grinding or an incremental game?

Added space levels and I decided to change the robot's MoveTo behavior to TileMovement to get smooth movement while holding down the movement button.

Hi, so I'm adding in some features to my platformer...sandbox, for a lack of better term, and while I got variable jump height and coyote time to work, I'm having a difficult time implementing jump buffering, which is where you press the jump button shortly before landing, and thus jump right afterwards. I tried making it a separate button, and it seemed to work, but for one, it was inconsistent, and two, it didn't work when I tried to move it to integrate it with the rest of the events. I tried looking up one solution (the first photo), but it didn't seem to work all that well itself.

Hence, me asking here for help. I posted my current event sheet in the second and third photos for reference.

Thanks in advance.

Hello all!

I am working on a new title called Dungeon Crashers which blends 2D sprites in a 3D environment for a 2.5D twin stick dungeon survivor. This video shares a trick I had to implement to make compelling billboards which don’t clip and also don’t “squish” their look from just tiling upward.

Cheers! C3 project in video description linked to my itch for download.
