I purchased Firefly, but never used it. I was hoping for Android support.
When I have time, I will try it out.

Thanks for your effort.

I remember the times when RARE released Donkey Kong Country for the SNES, and the technique they chose was pre-rendered 3D graphics. It was awesome for the era, and right now, the same tech works...

You could also install VirtualBox and run MacOS that way.
I was able to get it running, compile the code and run it on my iPhone, so I know it works. Last Os I tested is 10.11.
This solution is for...

Looks very nice! It also reminds me of a game on Amiga, Alien Breed

Also, image in the Fusion could be stored as an uncompressed image, instead JPG, etc. Try reducing the colors in your images.

Run in VM,
I have Win 7 PC with VirtualBox, with a lot of pain I was able to install 10.11 and upgrade to High Sierra 10.13.
Don't ask me how, it took a lot of Google help.

...and probably you can't do anything about it, right?

Like that should work.

Thanks for the feedback, my best was around 20., and you need to concentrate.
I made it easier one time, but it was too easy and you could go on for ever.
I could change the bullet's color to...

I released the game last year, and did not see any feedback, did anyone see it or played it?
Thanks

Click on "Community Passport" next to FORUM link, it should be there.

Interesting...Monty Python inspired?

Looks very nice, I'll buy that for a dollar or two!

I tried it last night, it feels pretty good, the music is great.
I do have a hard time doing the wall jumps, I'm not sure what is the proper way to execute the move.

If you are patient, you could get Clickteam Fusion for a lot less then full price. There is always a way to get a discount, Steam sale, store sale, Humble Bundle etc. There is no reason to pirate it....

Looks nice, I will try it this weekend.
I used MJLG0-NY389-ADT6J.
Thanks

You could do pause many ways, one of them, you could put all your game code into one group, when a player presses the ESC, disable that group.

I'll do it when my stomach is empty :))

I really don't know why, and I wonder is there is some kind of technique that needs to be implemented to avoid that.
I did noticed that I can get sick if the frame rate is too high, some games like...

I played the example by Schrodinger and it looks nice and very smooth on my PC.

I did notice one problem, it make me dizzy/sick. There is something about the movement that make me sick. Only few...

The extension comes with Arduino example to control RGB light, looks like a pretty nice project.

That's too bad... just for a pre-caution, I saved my stuff to Dropbox. I do have external backup just in case, but not the latest stuff.

Well, good luck.

I have LG Tribute5 phone with 5.1.1, I will test that for you.

Edit: Looks like it loops fine on my phone, after 1:52m it loops back.

Maybe you can limit the condition to one time.

I see the new example, it's not going to work. You need to assign a separate active per each touch and then group them with a qualifier.

I found one example, see if that helps.

I think what he did was to create an object that is larger then the player, like a box. Make that object follow the player, also make the object invisible. When the enemy overlaps the invisible...

Your example will not work on Android, because you are using mouse.
In your example you need to use "Multi touch" object for it to work. I'm not an expert in multi touch, but I was able to get it...

LatinoGol, To clarify, we could ask if it's a Steam Version or Standalone.

And Yes, I got all licenses to all exporters with Developer Version on Humble Bundle a year ago or so.

Probably got it from Humble Bundle for $15, and now tries to make a profit.

Personally, I got it twice from Humble Bundle, first time they offered Standard Edition with all exporters from $15,...

I wished Firefly was on Mobile not only desktop, that what is keeping me from trying.

I think we need to wait and see, before judging anything.
Maybe he's just excited to say something before it's fully done, I don't know...

Any preview videos?

I think output file needs to be saved on C root drive.

Yes, When you import the image, click on the "Pick" button and select the color you want to be transparent from the image.

JPG contains artifacts when saving which can cause problems. Like your white background, in JPEG, there could be many shades of white, which you can't see, but computer does.

Change the counter object type to Animation?

That is a very good article! So far my games do not require any camera movements, but I keep this in mind for future projects.

Thanks Jeff, this works really good!

So let's calculate the size of your animation, let's assume it's 24bit (16mil colors):
640 x 640 x 24bit = 9830400 bits / 8bits to get the size in bytes = 1228800bytes which is about 1.2MB per...

Debugger shortcuts, Yeah!
keyboard shortcuts are (at last) implemented (Ctrl+F8 = Pause, F10 = Step, F8=continue, Shift+F8 = Quit, F2 = Restart, Ctrl+O = Add object)

I know it's old, but I need to give credit to your idea, it works great. Thanks

This is very nice @Patrice!

Yes you can, I have seen example of that. It uses sin and cos to do that. I'll look for the example.

Edit: not mine, but found it.

Maybe create your images when need it?
Uncheck "Create at Start" on your big objects and create them when need it. Maybe that would work?

Use a counter, type animation, edit your images.

Thanks, your videos are ALWAYS well made and to the point.

I also like that you show what you are going to do, the final result.

Before you get any further making your game let me give you an advice, DO NOT USE CLICK with mouse events in android in FAST paced games. It's better to use Touch object.
The mouse, if clicked too...

So, I'm not sure if this helps.

I'm using the "touch" object in my game.
I created an event to create bullet holes on a barrier, but there was an instance where you shoot outside of that object...

I think I have a backup of my project with similar problem, let me go back and see what I did.

I had a similar problem, I solved it by rearranging the events.
Use the Event List Editor.

When you paste in the background, you should destroy the object , so it will not count towards the final object count.

Am I right?

There is also a built in virtual joystick in cf2.5, which I never used. I did see tutorial for that, but I can't find it.

You can use this: http://clickstore.clickteam.com/dynamic_touch_screen_joystick

I'm looking for some more examples.

I guess you could.

They give you 6 or 7 day certificate for the APP, then it expires, and you have to recompile again. This is for the free dev account.
If you pay the $99 a year, then this limitation is removed.

I had a similar problem when I tried to rearrange the events in my game, so I'm assuming that the order of the events is critical. Try to rearrange your events and see if it helps.

I can test it for you, I have 2 el cheapo phones I use for testing. One is Os4.4.4 and other is 4.4.2

I use alterable value per enemy,
Alterable value=3
subtract 1 when hit, if alt=0 then destroy.

The first screenshot looks bad, but it's not like that on my PC, mine looks perfect. This looks like some one resized it, or scaled it wrong in MSPaint. Wrong screen resolution???

Set counter to ( RRandom(4, 100 ) / 4 ) * 4

I'm developing for Android with same screen resolution as you, so it did not bother me too much that screen offset, because it looks fine on my phone.
I did find it odd.

Also, for the circle and checked the "Extended collisions"...

Click on the frame, and on the bottom you see Properties of the frame, click on the "Background Color" color box. By default is White, change it to Black.

Simple, you have chosen black color as the background color, you can change that when you import the image, or select black color as your background color in your frame.

You need to use the sprite sheet. Put your images in order and use the sprite sheet option and import as animation.

I have the same problem, but I'm using it to my advantage, as a double kill, yeah!

Yes, I can open it now. Work in full screen too.

@daryuss
When you compile the game to EXE then it should work for everyone, I can't open the file because I don't have that extension installed.

I can not open the example because I don't have the ultimatefulscreen extension.

Speaking of Activating or Deactivating groups, can you check that in the Debugger somehow?

How about you pick between 1 and 2 and reset the counter to 0? This is how I do it, but for me is between 1,2 or 3, reset to 0.

I had the same problem, divide by 1000.0

Got it, Thank you
I will try to incorporate the solution to my game. I need to see how it fits in to my code.
