I want the editor to be free so I can make games for free
-
You can already make games for free on hyperPad. It's just that the app costs money. Once you purchase the app, you unlock everything in it and there's no in-app purchases.
-
I don’t have enough money to buy it
-
I hear this a lot. I can't do anything about it, but I can assure you it's worth it if you want to make good 2D games.
-
How do you expect them to pay their bills if it’s free, and more importantly how do you expect them to support their family if its free?
App only costs $14

@dumbTactics Thanks for considering the developers' side. :) I've known them for years and they're very kind and happy people.
Sometimes, they actually lose money maintaining hyperPad but they still keep going - that shows how much they care about their software and community; a lot of us take that for granted. -
Yes, some people on here and on hyperPad youtube, have no idea what it takes to run a business. Asking for free. smh.
I'm starting to think these must be kids that pay no rent in real life.
I am pretty sure no responsible adult would ask such things. They would be grateful with the superbly low price, for such a powerful tool.
Regarding the devs contribution...
I truly hope the recognition arrives, it's engineering feat with such powerful potential.
Hopefully, once a legion of talented creators, arise from constantly practicing, that's when I think hyperPad will explode.
Visual Novels, RPG's Fighting Games like street fighter, card battlers. But...
using original assets, original animations, original sfx & music... that's when I see the explosion.
At the moment it seems the same ol' assets in lots of the creations. But i get it, everyone is still learning.
-
@dumbTactics I I’ve tried to use personal assets in most of my projects if you want to take a look at them. Most of them are branchable.

@dumbTactics :) hyperPad's got potential. I think some things need to be cleaned up before we actually blow up. The Hub is currently not in its best shape, upvoting can take a couple tries, replies don't indent under comments, sometimes pressing play takes you to another page, etc.
They're working on a new Hub that would presumably fix all of these issues and it would also bring a lot of new stuff like achievements, badges, starred projects and more! But don't take my word for it, I'm not sure if the new Hub will be coming soon. 😅 but when the new Hub releases, hyperPad will be ready to go viral.
-
@TutorialDoctor Thank you, I’ll take up on this offer sometime. At the moment, i’m still learning so i’m good with the starter pack.
Here’s my noob inquiry.. 😆 What do you mean by branchable?
-
@RobinsonX Ah, these things i would had not noticed since i’m still new and absorbing.
but what you’re saying, that they are working on sounds awesome! especially the achievements, badges and starred projects.
-
@dumbTactics Projects on the hub can be branchable.
When a project is branchable, that means it is open-sourced and anyone is free to modify and redistribute its software.
-
@RobinsonX got it. thanks!
