Sounds like you're doing well.
Well after going through lots of my posts I can't find where I described this, but I was sure I had..
I'll keep this high level for now. I'll assume a Crosswalk build (recommended).
The official instructions are here:
https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/809/ho ... -crosswalk
So the high level steps are
Create a C2 project
Create an XDK project
Export C2 project to XDK project folder
Build project in XDK
Take APK file created by XDK and publish in Google developer console
More detail (although still only minimal)
Download and install Intel XDK https://software.intel.com/en-us/html5/tools
Create an account for your XDK projects on the XDK website
Run XDK and create a new project. e.g. C:\TestApp
Click Projects and choose your app, e.g. TestApp
Under CORDOVA 3.x HYBRID MOBILE APP SETTINGS click BUILD SETTINGS
Click the Android-Crosswalk tab
Enter the following items (leave the rest default).
App ID com.mycompany.testapp
App Name TestApp
App Description My great app
Author, My name
App Version, 0.0.1 In future, update this with every published build
Check Fullscreen
Choose Orientation
App Version Code 1 In future, add 1with every published build
Load your project in Construct 2
Choose to Export your project
Choose the Android export option
For the export folder choose yourapp\www e.g.C:\TestApp\www
Go back to XDK and go to the Build tab
Click Build under Crosswalk for Android
Click Upload Project (first time you won't have to)
Wait for project to build
Go to your XDK-registered email and download the APK
Load the APK on your test device OR upload the APK to the Google developer console (will detail this later)
For ads (copied from a previous post of mine):
1. Get an admob account (i.e. follow the 'setting up' steps in the manual, under 'Admob Ads ')
2. Make your game
3. Add ads to your game:
3a. Add an Action <On start of layout> -> AdmobAds:Preload interstitial (if you want a full page ad)
3b. Add an Action <whenever you want full page ad to appear> -> AdmobAds: Show interstitial
3c. Add an Action <whenever you want banner ad to appear> -> AdmobAds: Show banner ad at position <whatever you choose>
4. Put in your AdmobAds plugin properties, your Ad ID's for Banner/Interstitial. Set Test mode to Yes.
5. Export your game from C2 (follow steps 'Exporting' in the manual)
6. Build your game using Android Crosswalk in the XDK
7. Download the APK from the email sent to you from the XDK
8. Test your game by installing the APK directly
9. Set Test mode to No; re-export/build; publish to the Play store
That's it for now. No doubt I'll have to correct mistakes.
Now waiting for the iOS version of this.. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink">
