  Same issue here. When I start my app, the Google Play logo pops up, then disappears, and no functionality of the plugin is working any further.

  I think it might have to do with the SHA1 signature. Here's the thing: The SHA1 signature created by the build-in APK signer of C3 is used as an upload key to Google Play, not the actual signing key. The 'real' signing is done by Google itself (unless you deactivate it).

  I'll do some testing, maybe the project in Google Play Game Services must be provided with the C3 upload SHA1 signature, not the signing signature of Google.

  Here's a screenshot of Moonicorn's Cookie Quest. You can find it at Google Play:

  Hey everyone,

  I just published a cute little game on Google Play. It's called Moonicorn's Cookie Quest and was made with C3. As the title says... it's about unicorns and cookies. Who doesn't love that?

  

  Moonicorn's Cookie Quest is a platformer where you play one small level at a time. I tried to make the controls as easy as possible and provide an optimal learning curve, so that you'll end up mastering much more tricky levels. All that mixed-up with a cute art style! :)

  

  

  I really appreciate any feedback, as I will update the game steadily. It's still in beta.

  You can play Moonicorn's Cookie Quest here:

  Thanks!

  I just ran into another strange issue: I use C3, stable version r148. For the share plugin, the condition 'Is sharing files supported' and the action 'Add file' do not exist. They simply are not listed in the event sheet editor.

  I've searched everywhere and can't find it... am I blind?!

  According to the documentation, these features should exist:

  Thanks for the answer, Ashley.

  I did some testing and figured out that it has something to do with the APK size. For a small test APK, it works really quick as supposed. For a big project (~ 50 MB), it's slow somehow. Disabling 'Minify script' helped a bit, too.

  Interesting fact: The same problem and solution occurs for the official Google Play plugin, too.

  For the moment, I'm fine with this, as I won't publish the full sized APK anyway. I might provide a bug report once I have time.

  Hi everyone,

  I use C3's official share plugin in a signed Android APK. I can share an URL via Whatsapp as supposed, but the plugin takes reaaalllllllyyyyy long to load. Approximately 30 seconds from pushing a button in the game to opening the native share dialog.

  Is there a way to fix this?

  Hi everyone,

  I'm currently experiencing an odd effect:

  I created a C3 project, exported it as a signed Android build with hidden status bar and tested it on my smartphone. When I play my game, the screen is dimmed when I don't touch the screen for about 30 seconds. A few seconds late, the screen is turned off completely.

  This is a common feature of smartphones in general, but I expect that this effect is turned off when games are played. Is there any way to get rid of this?

  Hi everyone,

  just wanted to upload an Android app to Google Play. I've done so before, so in principle I know what to take care of, but they changed the upload format.

  Each time I want to upload a signed release APK, I get warnings that the supposed format is a so-called 'android app bundle'. There is no way to dismiss these warnings.

  Sadly, creating android app bundles requires the use of Android studio.

  Has anyone else experienced this? Any workoraund? I hope this issue does not make publishing to Google Play impossible...

  It's unlikely anyone will bother with this one, as it was always a hack, and probably impossible to port to the C3-engine. Here's a tutorial to allow you to switch over to the official one.

  Works perfectly, thanks a lot!

  By the way, you really provide good service to the Construct community. I think Scirra should reward that somehow.

  Is anyone able to port this addon to C3?

  Yes, I know, the new C3 sprite font object allows for JSON formatting. The point is that I used this plugin quite extensively in C2 and now I am unable to import my C2 project in C3.

  Having worked on a project for about 3 years now, this situation is quite horrific. Hope anyone can help!

  Very good work, man! Looks like a well-thought-out Zelda clone. Love the way the aiming of the bow works, is it spreading if you let go too early?

  One point though: The greenish walls inside the dungeon look odd to me. Especially the edges. It seems like something is wrong with the perspective.

  Keep it up!
