True Shapes

Does anyone know of a way of getting true shapes into GameSalad

for example i got a spike PNG but GS sees the box that is around the spike even those its transparent tried PSDs as well and I get the same result so even when my hero touches the spike he just has to touch the transparent box the spike is within to die. Any one know how to bring in different shapes rather than just boxes

Thank you

    GameSalad can only handle rectangular and circle collision shapes. If you want to have a different shape you have to construct it from rectangles/circles. (You can rotate and resize them so you'd be surprised what you can actually make from them.)

    Two rectangles, one angled like this / and one angled like this \ , put them together and you get . . . .
