Misc Questions

in Working with GS (Mac)

1) Do I have to give credit to the programs I used? I used gamesalad, cfxr, and pixen.

2) Even if I have the load attribute, gamesalad doesn't save my score correct? (just want to make sure, it still saves score)

3) I have a highscore button to link to game center. Is it only possible to link to game center when you have an apple dev account?

    1) No. It's a bit like asking if you have to give credit to the hammer that you used to build the bookcase that you are selling.

    2) An attribute will only be saved if you use a Save Attribute behavior. To retrieve the saved value, use a Load Attribute behavior and make sure the two keys are identical.

    3) Not sure about this one but I would guess users need an Apple ID.

    Do I consider myself a programmer? Yes. But only because I know a bit about programming languages. There's been a healthy debate around here about whether what we do in GameSalad Creator is programming, coding, or something else. I suppose in the end it's up to you to decide.

    I'd call it "creating."

    Truth. I am learning Python. So I am on my way to being a programmer. But while GameSalad is "programming" it does teach about certain programming features like if statements and while or 'is then do'. So it is light programming. In fact, it is what made me want to program for REAL. So like @Summation said, "Creating" :)
