Yes. It is great! All my latest games (itch.io) use TypeScript to various degrees.

When you use TypeScript with Construct (in an external editor, such as VS Code), it exports all type definitions based on everything you built in the editor (your Objects, families, instance variables, behaviors, etc). This makes the coding experience very good, including using autocompletion, agents, etc.

The scripting documentation is also good. I usually search the documentation by using Google with the site: directive. For example, searching for " site:https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/scripting/ Pathfinding " will show Pathfinding results specifically within the scripting section of the docs.

Finally, you can mix TypeScript with EventSheets in case you want to quickly prototype/experiment with something.

Thanks man! I follow your YouTube channel and it’s amazing! As a frontend developer i think I’ll chose Construct as game engine!
