Summary on Construct: Looks like you could make some pretty high quality games and you would probably learn a lot about event-based programming too. But it may be too complicated and I'm probably not going to be doing much with it as I'm pretty happy where I am. You might want to give it a try though...see where it takes you!
well i can't understand it much but i'll keep messing with it and did you know that construct will let you make applications? and you can even make a app that will notifie you when a file has been changed on etc. but the pop up Warning window has a bug so on construct it won't work
More on Construct: On the downside...it took a fairly large amount of space to set up on my computer (about 30 MB) and it is pretty complicated. The games it makes will only work on PC's (I think) and will not work online; they will have to be downloaded. The system is also pretty focused on making games and is not as general purpose as Scratch. I'm pretty happy with Scratch right now and with the whole moderator thing, it keeps me pretty busy.
This is fun, neat effect! Hey, I took a (long) look at the Construct game making system. It is pretty complex! I ran through most of the GhostShooter game tutorial and I started to get a feel for how the development environment works. It's actually a lot like Visual Basic in that it has property sheets and objects. It's a pretty cool system and has a lot of built-in stuff that would be very hard to do in Scratch. You should try the tutorial.
It would be REALLY cool if it always followed your mouse even when not clicked, and it was a bit thicker, and it faded away instead of disappearing in chunks... I dunno how you'd do it on scratch, but that would make an awesome pointer! Good work though!
Thanks!, but VF1 made the scripts for all the dots but the painting dot and i edited his scripts a little (i cut stuff out) and your right i should make this a cursor thing!
I was testing ot stuff with VF1's Square Selecter when i tried it out and it did this so i thought i would show it cause it is kinda neat. To control just hold the mouse down and move it evrywhere VERY fast!
