      @NeilSenn

      I think the big issue is people biting off more than they can chew and lose motivation. Especially for a first game.

      Usually what happens, people discover an app like hyperPad realizing they can finally make games they've always dreamed of. But ignore the fact that a lot of the games they've been playing and inspired by were created by larger teams or people with years of experience.

      Thats why when people start, I always recommend starting with a small game. Do something like Pong, or brick breaker. And then try to add to it, make it more unique and exciting. From this you will really learn the toolset, and not lose motivation so quickly.

      You don't need to make the next GTA, or epic RPG as your first game.

      Start small, and celebrate the little wins along the way.

      Collision

      One of the most important mechanics in any game is collision—when two objects in your game world interact with each other. In hyperPad, you can set up collision behaviors to detect when your character hits an obstacle, enemy, or collectible. From there, you can trigger actions like losing health, collecting points, or changing scenes.

      For beginners, collision detection is a must-learn concept. hyperPad makes it easy with drag-and-drop behaviors, helping you create interactive and engaging gameplay without any coding required.

      @Shady91 As of right now, not really. We are using a bunch of APIs that aren't made by Apple, so this most likely won't work like Murtaza mentioned.

      However, if we migrate to using more native Apple APIs, then this seems feasible. I don't know much behind how this works yet.

      If you do try, let us know if it works!

      Yeah, community isn't as active as it was before, but I'm still glad that it's still here. I also prefer forums over Discord 'cause I find them more organized and easier to follow.
