    @themerpygirl Hello! You can use Play Sound behaviors instead. They have almost the same capabilities of Play Music behaviors - you can loop them and even define a start time. Since we've just revamped the audio engine, audio playback is much better and you can get away with using Play Sound behaviors. The only downside is that you can't define the end time with Play Sound behaviors unlike in Play Music behaviors.

    For that past little while our XCode exporter has been broken. It was just fixed, and the emails are automatically going out from before. So you must have selected "Export For The App Store" in the project menu some time in the past little while. You must be running the latest version of XCode, if you are having issues with that part of it I suggest searching XCode documentation. We do have some documentation on exporting: some of it is out of date (due to apple changes), but for the most part it still applies or may require some slight adjustments. https://hyperpad.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/categories/200163049-Publishing As for wanting an app that can be played immediately on any device, easiest way is to just run it within hyperPad/ use the viewer app. This XCode project is for submitting to the Apple App store.

    @gmail When pausing the game, you can also change the aspect ratio to best fit your screen.

    @gmail Here's the full link, it should pop up to a Canva view link but I can send you a PDF if needed! https://www.canva.com/design/DAGkFKebPyo/dqkFof9MHsXlw-JuG0GSmA/view?utm_content=DAGkFKebPyo&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=viewer And that's awesome to hear! I believe hyperPad should be compatible with that version of MacOS

    @SplitMindGaming Just downloaded it now. On the world looking button at the top, click the earth then click on behaviors and go to “add music” and go from there.

    Sorry for the late reply. To address your concern, the app is far from dead. The forum could use some life though. We're going to start actively working on making the forum more active!

    @Ninjadoodle Easiest way is to just have an object the size of the screen on the UI layer. In the next update we've added a toggle to interact with the screen on touch behaviours.

    @Ana-potato Hey sorry for the late reply, there is actually a bug right now making imported images not transparent if they are over a certain resolution. This has been fixed in the upcoming update.

    @Kore I finally got it working, please read! This is some sort of bug in Hyperpad. I tried the exact same method on my old IPad and it worked perfectly, no black background! So it works on my older IPad, but not on my newer one. They are both running Hyperpad version 2.0 (20) so I think this is some sort of IOS thing. My new Ipad is on IOS 18.1.1 and every time I imported, the sprites had black backgrounds My old Ipad is on version 15.7 and the importing of the sprites worked with no issues despite me doing the exact same method and using the same files. This may not be the actual issue, but it's the only thing I noticed that was different between my attempts. I guess something in the new IOS update causes sprite importing to not work properly. Please fix! And thanks for this awesome app.
