Dekstop game made in Clickteam Fusion 2.5?

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

    Yes, that is what is was designed to to from the beginning. All the way back to an earlier version of Windows 3.1.
    There are many games on Steam for example, that are Desktop games made with Fusion :)

    Here are some that are known about:

    Well it's something like that, but it can't show multiple objects at once. Is there way to make game/frame background transparent or is there another way, like multiple sub-applications?

    I made the Hamsterball and also Kiwi / Jet set willy desktop pets linked above :) (see Please login to see this link.) You can set the window shape to an active object to get the single object walking around the desktop (by moving the window) but not multiple objects. Perhaps it could be possible by running a separate EXE for each object you wish to have running around independently, I seem to remember there was something to help managing tasks and sharing data between applications, but can imagine it being a bit of a pain to do.

    You can also use "Grab desktop at start" of frame and then do what ever you want on top of what will be a picture of the dektop. This is usually how those *destroy the desktop* apps are made.

    Unfortunately I can't get "Grab desktop at start" to work i Fusion 2.5 while looking into this :(
    Perhaps someone has an example at hand?

    Edit:

    Actually you need to use:
    Application -> Properties - > Runtime Options
    Set display mode to "Standard"

    Then on the particular frame

    Frame -> Properties -> Runtime Options
    Tick "Grab desktop at start"
    AND
    Tick "Resize to screen size at start"

    This will make the particular frame use the desktop as background and you can pretty much use as many actives as you like on top. You will not be able to interact with the real desktop until you exit the program though. This is inline with how the usual "destroy the desktop" were made.

    Bozai buddy uses the same approach as Andy's Hamster Ball. You use Window shape object and limit yourself to a single shaped window. But that would allow you to interact with the real desktop while the program is running.

    Thanks for explaining things for them! Sorry for misunderstanding the question and answering too fast.
