I was just wondering if it was possible for gamesalad to make an app with a navigation layout like this

also I was wondering if there is an app on the app store made WITH gamesalad that is like a game guide or something?

so some sort of guide or manual instead of a game?

I ask because I am working on a guide for a game and want to make it with gamesalad and don't know how I should design it.

edit: I would rather make it with xcode but I don't know how to code it.

    If you're making a guide I don't see why you couldn't with GameSalad but if you need to fetch stuff from the internet such as a news reader then I don't think you can yet.

    is it possible to make the app look like that? look like it was built with xcode?

    I don't see why not have your images on the left each one a separate actor then when touched changes actor (image) on the right side

    It would be possible for them to do, but it's up to them, maybe forward them this to tech support or something like that? Hope they do :D

    Absolutely you can make it look like that in GameSalad. Depends on the talent of the artist, really.

    Very quick down and dirty demo

    click on the "read later" tab on left side

    that sure is down in dirty, I think you may have gotten some mud in your eyes too!

    nah I kid. that is great but it wouldnt be as nice as an actual layout like xcode does, with all the animations.

    Hopefully you'll spend more than 3 minutes on it like I did...lol

    you can have the actor slide in not just pop in like I have in test..

    If the artist is good, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

    Sure, it's pretty easily achievable, but GS wasn't really developed for this sort of UI in mind. As @Scoots said, GS cannot currently (and probably not ever) retrieve information from the web and display it. Your best bet with something like this is to code it.
