Startup

Layout Design

Before you can start make sure you have graphics & sounds. You can use your own or you can download this folder with sounds & graphics (all graphics made by me) so sorry if you didn’t like the graphics. Some Graphics need to be resized if you wish.
First Open Construct2 Set Windows size to 800,1280 & the layout size to also 800,1280 and then name the layout “Menu”. Then go to layers tab and name the first to “BG” then lock it and add one & name it “Main”, after that, add the following plug-in: Audio, browser, Arrays, & touch. We used Touch Plug-in instead of Mouse Plug-in since Cut the rope is a mobile game and the layout size is for tablets/phones.
Add the music file “Cut the rope theme song” to music folder & the rest sound to Sounds Folder.
Add a sprite named “background” then set position to 400,640
Add a sprite named “Title” and set position to 400, 240
Then add sprites buttons named “play” &”Exit” and set position X to 400 & Y whatever you want.
The layout should look like this:
Then add the following global variables:
1- “MusicTag”=0 (Since it makes problem with sound tags in mobile/tablets)
2- “level”=1 (To check which level are you & other options)
3- “CurrentLevel”=0 (To check if level & current level is equal to proceed to next level)
Duplicate the layout “Menu” and name the new one “levels”. We are going to modify it later.
Add the following buttons & music event:

When pushing the puffers to give wind, sometimes the cheese will go in the opposite direction as expected..
When cutting the rope the cheese loses all it's momentum and just drops straight down..
It kind of works, but I'm not sure why one would try to recreate "physics" game without physics and or "realistic" gravity..
