I am going to be offline more than what I used to in CreatiCode. The reason why is because this site isn’t for me anymore and I’ve found more advanced gaming sites like Flowlab.io. Occasionally I will check back on my account and maybe edit some of my games. It’s been fun being here and I thank you all for the fun time.

@info-creaticode, can you help me on this, too?

Announcement

Hello everyone! Welcome to the first-ever Freestyle Gaming Creaticode Competition!

In this challenge, you, the contestants, will be making a Creaticode game!

Requirements:

• Must be a playable & readable game

• Instructions on how to play are not required, but recommended.

• Only one game may be submitted

• Must be 2D; top-down, side-view, and in-depth games are allowed (in-depth meaning layers to make 2D look 3D)

• Submit your games through here (or another platform/site as requested)

• Options for games are: Minigame, story, survival, escape room, puzzle, defense, platformer, simulator, tyсoon (no “click the object” games), etc.

• For the best playing experience, we request that the games be 20+ minutes long to play

The deadline will be October 30th!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, @TNG (or @info-creaticode if they become a host as well).

Only the top 3 games will win! Do your best and work hard! I wish good luck to everyone who participates!

@dreamsmp_luck I figured out the reason “Greener” doesn’t work. It’s because you didn’t add the UI sprite which is the base for all general gameplay. You need to have that

Also, I’m going to edit it a bit more to where it is smoother and add bonus content that I deem necessary

Oh man, I’m so glad to announce that after almost a month, Bot Test has officially reached BETA VERSION!

I think I know what he is referring to. I click certain blocks, and everything does freeze and all the blocks don’t work anymore. I try to press the flag and nothing happens either (also the flag does indicate that it has been clicked). I think it usually happens if you try to click the blocks inside the block storage and not the editing mode.

Also, when I’m playing the games, I’ve realized that the “when I start as clone” does not highlight when I do an action that’s supposed to highlight it, even though it still works. It does highlight, however, when I click it inside the editing mode.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail All UI bugs should be fixed now

I plan on making custom variable UIs if I have the time, right now I’m making a fishing game (similar to Roblox Fisch) with a friend.

@info-creaticode , more accurately, he has been posting pictures of plushies, that are not related to his coding, in almost every single post. It is getting annoying and makes it feels like his posts aren’t serious. Can you take action if this escalates or continues despite warnings?

@catty waht

@106809nes modes change the font and detail. I’m using a separate font from the original and the detail looked different

@info-creaticode @dezz-nuts If they’re saying they want the ring invisible, they can use the ghost function to make it invisible while still making the “touching sprite” function work.

@dezz-nuts What you an do is use a variable instead of the built-in clone ID system.

For example:

set [variable] to 0;
repeat [number] times {
change [variable] by 1;
create clone of myself;
}

Afterwards, you can say:

when I start as clone {
if ([var] = 1) {
[action]
} else if ([var] = 2) {
[action]
} …
}
and so on

If you don’t understand I can simplify it

@dezz-nuts Use an extra sprite to detect if the one you want to keep in the area is touching it.

For example:

if [sprite] is touching [object] {
go to x, y
// stop all movement code
}

@info-creaticode Assuming the AI gets a project filtered wrong during the review process, can they contact creaticode for personal review?

@jamesa-blackwell-57b383d3 Define please. Currently, I’m remastering my old Undertale game.

When will user-made projects be shown again?

@info-creaticode This might work, but I’ve never used tables before, I usually just use lists and variables. I’d have to figure out how they work.

@info-creaticode The first option is interesting. Here is the set-up I have right now

(Things are heavily subjected to change)

All of this took ~500 blocks of code

So what you’re describing is basically numerical characterization? e.g. 1 = can walk through, 2 = wall, 3 = destination, etc.

@jamesa-blackwell-57b383d3 said in Blocks:

2D pathfind
makes the sprite path find around another sprite until it touches the sprite it’s pathfinding to, useful for making better chase games.

I agree with this a lot, mainly since the new game I’m making has a lot of walls. I have to make pathfinder nodes (I’ve used ~15 nodes just for one thing out of possibly 9 different segments so each clone can navigate to different rooms) so my clones can figure out where to go. This is really time consuming and takes a lot of blocks (I barely have anything done and already one of the sprites have roughly 800 blocks in it and most of that comes from AI navigation).

Update, I fixed this issue by rephrasing the script differently:

when green flag clicked
forever
if <key [z v] pressed?> then
wait until <not <key [z v] pressed?>> …
