Behaviour similar to Candy Crush

iSesens

I'm fairly new to GameSalad and want to ask if I can make similar behaviour to candy crush or dots.
When 2 or 3 actors touch they destroy each other and earn points.
Something like a puzzle I think.

We have one over at GSHelper.com -- It's a very advanced template, but it gets the job done.

Thank you, It looks cool but I don't money to spend on a template
Is it really that advanced?
Can I do it myself I mean create something like that, actors and behaviours.

@iSesens it is a difficult first project in GameSalad. If you have a strong background in programming concepts (e.g. data structures including tables, logic including conditional statements and loops, debugging, etc.) and can learn a new tool like GameSalad quickly, then go for it. Otherwise, you might be better off trying something a little simpler first.

If you have your heart set on a Candy Crush / Match 3 style game, try building a tic-tac-toe game. It might not be as interesting but it is very good practice for this.

@tatiang I don't have any background in programming.
Thank you about the advice, I really appreciate it.

I think I should leave it as a idea for just now, when I learn more about GameSalad and data structures and other stuff I can try again.
It was something that I had in mind from Tetris when I was a kid playing it

What about Tetris style game is it also the same difficulty?

I should try some basic platformer at first maybe.
