ClownPig’s Project Updates

I like typewriter the most, but others could have different feedback, so maybe you could create a poll?

ok, thanks for the feedback! I’ll add your name in the credits, and I’ll add a tutorial. @Pollpeople, here’s a sweet poll.

what text function is better for a tutorial, and pleasing to the eye?
  • typewriter
  • fade in
  • regular text

The annoying thing you’ll notice when using a typewriter effect in Hopscotch is that it seems to reposition the entire text instead of adding a new letter. I still prefer a typewriter effect as its still more smooth but Tri-Angle’s typewriter effect is really nice and doesn’t get affected by this.

Also can you manually slow down the typewriter effect you made Tri-Angle? I’ll look in the code to see real quick and ik this was intended to happen but its a little fast for me lol

My favorite speed is when it types as fast as I read, but everyone reads at different speeds which is the problem… that’s why the text is cooking creatures is so slow

ok, thanks. Tri-Angle’s method is probably something I won’t be able to understand. but I’ll try my best. if I can’t figure it out, I’ll use an efficient typewriter I made myself.

yes, that is really annoying. but I’ve made a semi-difficult method that avoids that entirely, while being smooth.

I’ll see if I can implement a fade feature into the typewriter, so it doesn’t look blocky.

Added tutorial, and fixed minor bugs. I didn’t add a fade typewriter, but I added a regular one with fade at the end. @KingGuin87 @Tri-Angle

The type writer is pretty slow, I think it should be sped up a bit.

Ok, I’ll try that

Is this faster @StarlightStudios? (I’m outta likes :(()

Also, do you think the tutorial is informative enough, and are the transitions good or should I change them?

@MarkerGames, I’m sorry you can’t view the project, I would publish it, but that’d clog my account and people might use my code and I want people on the app to see the finished version and not the early stages

I like the tutorial, sorry but maybe another little speed bump should do it

Also I noticed in the game you have a text saying “all rights reserved” and i don’t mean to be that person, I had something similar happen to me and everyone was definitely not nice when telling me. So to save you from having that rude conversation like I did, you can’t really say “all rights reserved” because HS owns your games technically so everything you upload is basically owned by THT too

Here is a photo for reference

And yes you might think i’m super bored and have nothing better to do (which is true) but I just would rather me tell you than someone who’s super bored AND in an argumentative mood lol
