So construct apps won't be of the same value here? Then the construct fans will create their own community, and those who change to construct will also change community. is that really good?
I think of MMF and Construct as completely different apps. Same goes for other programs such as "Game Maker" and "The 3D Game Maker", basically because they are. All very similar, but I can accept that each one can have it's own community. Just like different programming languages can. Or using something very different; such as Cakes - Seperated into two communities. One for chocolate and one for fruit... Hmm...
I spose although the site is called The Daily Click... it sorta contradicts that, and typically the site was also thedailyclick.com and was intended for just ClickTeam games.
Since there's a lack in games in general - I'm not really bothered. The site should probably just go 'indy' altogether
... Yes I too am certain that games made with other programs have been posted here. IF I ever made a game in something other than MMF but had a similar style to the games here I'd try and post it.
With HWA around the corner and that new fancy physics engine (Clickteam hear me well! This needs to be built into the next version of MMF! Or do your own ) MMF has really picked up. I suppose I'm thankful for Construct in that they're really pushing Clickteam to make a good application even better.
especially seeing as clickteam want to make me pay 22.5% more for living in the uk. They even had the cheek to tell me it was to pay some tax that doesn't exist
As has been explained to you every time you have complained about this in the chatroom over the last few months, the prices are different because of the tax added to their product in the UK (which, no matter how many times you insist otherwise, does exist), and because of the difference in price of manufacture of MMF in America and Europe.
As soon as it gets stable, I do think clickteam will have a lot more work to do because not only construct already have features like hardware acceleration and a built in physics engine (which is awesome, I already tested it), but also because it's free.

I'd be very surprised if there was a problem posting Construct apps here. If it finds its feet, then I intend to.
That was me, jumping over Circy for saying that wwww.Create-Games.com says that the site accepts all indie games, as long as the respective creator is the one who submits it. The site being called The Daily Click contradicts that argument though, which is why the compromise of submitting any indie game being allowed, but with limitations such as GOTW, was set down.
Nowadays I can not choose between MMF2 and Construct. I think the engine of MMF2 (also with HWA) is too old today. It's like TGF but with some more new things. However unlike Clickteam says you can not really make "any kind of 2D game" with it. I mean for example it's very hard to make a good and stable RTS with it.
Construct seems to be good but it's not ready yet (and it crashes often on my computer). But I think even Construct beta is forerunner in many ways. Working HWA with many new features and movements is very good.
Anyway I hope Scirra will continue developing Construct. Maybe that will get Clickteam to make something big... and better?
