  Well I did get one of games working with AppMobi on droid. I removed all my spritefont objects and that seemed to do the trick. However, the game ran about as well as it does on Phonegap and didn't look good. I got much better performance and overall look in CocoonJS. I'm not sure if I am doing something wrong still. I exported as direct canvas, included the directcanvasc2.js file and included it in my index.html.

  I made 2 origin image points (in this case 4 and 5) and used the following code.

  The gunFireRate is just used to slow down the rate of fire.

  gunSpawn is a global variable

  Thanks for the kind words.

  OK yeah, RedZone is a great comparison. I can already see how the crosshairs will solve one of my issues with the missiles :).

  I'll check that game out. Thanks for the feedback.

  The water you see at the beginning was just playing around with the effects, and a few areas the graphics are a mix. I have one graphics artist doing it all, so when it's all said and done the style should be coherent, we hope :).

  I like the crosshair idea, I'll play around with that.

  I didn't realize WASD worked, I was designing it using the arrow keys for movement, but i will check that out. I'll probably make it configurable anyway, but thanks for the feedback, very helpful :).

  I included the CocoonJS Ads object and on my title screen added the event to load banner, bottom center. Easy enough.

  When I compile the game and test it on my devices it hangs right as the loading screen hits 100 percent. Figuring it was something to do with Ads, I removed the Ad object, recompiled and everything worked great.

  Question, would this be a Ludei support question, or Contruct?

  I am a premium member of Cocoon, fyi.

  Thanks again for all the support either way :)

  I'm emailing back and forth with Ludei now, but it's good to know it doesn't happen when compiled. Thanks.

  OK, so I exported with CocoonJS and tested on both an iphone and droid using the cocoon launcher. I tried both Letterbox scale and scale. The results were the same with both.

  Here are the side by side pictures.

  iPhone 4

  HTC Thunderbolt

  Any ideas? Will this change at all when compiling the game from the Cocoon website?

  I also tried crop, but it was worse.

  Thanks.
