I've been using Construct 3 for almost 5 years now, and I thought it was time to share some knowledge with fellow devs.
So check out Advanced Construct at advancedconstruct.net to read about how I do things in the engine. I have some free template projects too!

Quite the statistic in here, Construct placed second in Playgama's Game Engine Rankings for H1 2025, powering over 16% of new web games published.

It's incredible to see how the web as a platform is growing and we can't wait to see what games our community comes up with next!
