How to make a proper win screen without changing scenes

poopdecksweeper

I am going to have a few things going on like: how many stars collected, the time that it took to complete the level, etc.

How do I do all of this without changing the scene? Should I just disable my character's movements when level ends and spawn the proper graphics that contain all of my data?

Use the pause menu funtion.

Hmmm I usually don't get the load wheel on my pause menus....

@Tshirtbooth yeah you're art is very detailed I can see it would do that.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the advice. @Tshirtbooth: I was thinking to do that, but in the last game I did that, and it showed the screen movement, albeit it was for .1 seconds, but still. I would like to not show the screen movement when I spawn all the stats. My scene size is already way larger than the normal screen size for iphone , I think it is at 1380 width.

Either way, will interpolate be useful set at duration: 0?

and @FBS, my pause is giving me the loading screen already, and it's only my intro scenes. )

@poopdecksweeper .. using Interpolate usually for a slide-in like scene change. If you want instant then use change attribute. Interpolate means: interpolation is a method of constructing new data points within the range of a discrete set of known data points. IE: Interpolate between 10 and 20 for 1 second would create equal steps between 10 and 20 for the one second, adjusted for ease in/out etc. So interpolate for 0 seconds isn't needed as it is just a change .. from example 10 to 20.

I gotcha, tweening. I have never tried interpolate set to 0. I wonder if it even produces anything.

I going to try it all soon, but I am trying to take a hold of my art direction for this game and the win scene. I cant seem to make a good win screen actor.

@Tshirtbooth: any suggestions whether I should use inkscape , pixelmator, or gimp? I want clean lines, but the game is really dark. I've been using pixelmator for all my pixel art games, but this is a bit different. Think Contre Jour meets Braid meets small worlds.
