edited November -1 in Working with GS (Mac)
Wow! GS people are doing great things. I've been away for months on a project and now I have some time to play with GS again. Only problems is I forgot everything!. Anyway, I'm trying to get a clock( in tenth or hundredths) to run backwards. For example: game would start at 30 seconds and countdown to 0. I looked at FMG tuts, cool as usual, but cant figure it out how to do it other that full seconds. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    You'll need to create an attribute (real) and set it to 30.

    Create an actor with a display text attribute and display the attribute. On that actor add a timer so that:

    `every 0.1 seconds change attribute game.??? to game.??? -0.1`

    Welcome back!

    I came back about two weeks ago after being away for about four months. It all comes back quick. I think being away for awhile helped. I just finished my fourth game in two weeks.

    Nice! What is your new game? I'm working on a couple of "doodle" type games to get back into it.

    Daa Bubble Bees. I'll ck it out!

    I made four games with my 15 year old daughter doing the graphics. The first one is Bubble Bees. The next three are Bubble Fill, Bubble Man and Bottle Babies. Bubble Fill will be released on the 8th, Bubble Man on the 10th and Bottle Babies on the 13th.

    I would say Bubble Bees is the second best of the four games. I like the Bubble Fill the best.

    I will be working on an Android game for the next couple of weeks, then will come back and make some more using GS. I sat down with me daughter and we have came up with about 20 games to make over the next three-four months.

    I'm hoping for some good sales because I will be splitting it with my daughter.

    That's so sweet...

    My boys are 2 and 8 months. All they do is throw ketchup at my mac while I'm working... ;-)
