Chit-Chat / Did I choose right game genre?

« on: April 05, 2014, 10:03:41 am »

I have chosen to develop games for education, since they are kind of easy to design and develop and perhaps cheaper to make than other genres.

Did I made right decision? I have made no money what so ever.

What genre should be my next in order to at least pay the time and effort I spend on developing a game?

What do you think guys? Make another Flappy Bird clone XD ?

I had some great ideas before. Problem was I had to do all the drawing myself. I could use an illustrator, finish some of my projects.

Or maybe start new one

I have new version of my game which is 7.7MB, but I cannot upload it, the server returns error:  Unable to create storage directory for this project at ...

server: uploads.newgrounds.com if I recall

What do I do wrong? Anybody experienced this before with newgrounds?

Ask a Question / Create actor with alpha:0 and then fade in

« on: March 26, 2014, 09:30:34 am »

I tried this from this topic: http://community.stencyl.com/index.php?topic=6566.0

It still creates the actor like only the create statement exists. What do I do wrong?

And why do I need two statemens just to set alpha to 0?

Ask a Question / Wrap a text in label actor - Stencyl 2.2

« on: March 26, 2014, 07:12:38 am »

I am using Label behavior on a label actor and I have bigger labels which I like wrapped. I unselected Stretch width option but it doesn't work. I also tried in code mode to change default width but again its not wrapped.

Any ideas how to wrap my label in two rows?

"Never published before" means never published on Stencyl arcade and/or other sites like Kongregate?

A bit of sound engineering. The part that was missing It also needs more drawing Still not a complete game.

Turns out you can create  actor behaivor and add sound attribute which has default value "No sound".
Each time you add this behavior to specific actor, specific sound can be selected to be played from the behaviours dropdown list.

« on: March 20, 2014, 05:56:51 am »

I can develop all my cards to play specific sound using the events panel in each actor, but that is lot of duplicate work. Same blocks for each card only the sound is different.

My question is, can I create an actor behavior in which I can choose which specific sound to be played depending on which card was pressed with the mouse? I can identify which card was pressed, but how do I do that for sound? Is it possible?

For actor was like this: getActorTypeByName("ActorName");
Is there something similar for sound?
