dop2000 How did you make the doptrix unlocker app. I mean how does it work - how can the other app determine whether the other one is installed etc

LaurenceBedford I didn't make Doptrix with Construct. It was a native Android app developed in Java, there are ways to check if an app with a specified ID is installed on the device.

When you beat 30 levels, you'll unlock Strike minigame (arkanoid clone), kids love it!

so far he got to level 11 or whatever unlocks the zen mini game...

when we click on those floaty things going by it seems like you also get that weird sound latency (I heard this a bug with deploying to Android). You can't really tell though, I just noticed it.

jobel You mean that short "pop" sound when you tap asteroids and ships?
How bad is this latency? Is just the sound delayed or everything on the screen lags for a moment? I don't have it on any of my phones..

no it's only an audio latency. and yes it's that "pop" sound. I can tell it's definitely delayed. not really noticeable to most people though.

Someone mentioned it on the forums how their Android app had a 0.5-1.0 second latency in the sound effect. I haven't deployed an app to Android since Cocoon and never had this issue. So maybe it's something to do with Construct's apk?

Doesn't seem to impact your game at all, but if I was making a shooter I think it would be a problem.

jobel I checked my code and there's actually a 0.1s wait before playing this sound, not sure why I added it :)
I'll fix it in the next release.

Congrats on the release!

Can't try it since I'm on Apple products but checked the video and the art is nicely done and the gameplay look fun!

My games too are not behind a paywall at all and without a need to spend money to enjoy them. ;)

Good luck going forward!
