    Yeah the risks should be considered. They got the Wii port going just in time for Nintendo to abandon the platform.I do not blame them for not wanting to have to worry about that kind of thing.

    Wii had web framework and could run html5 stuff. Switch does not. So it was not really any porting of the code going on afaik.

  • Still love C3 in general, waiting for apps to finally publish for supergigadroid.com Cheers.

    Looks like Caverunner/Metroidvania from Tokinsom, but with a new head on the guy? :)

    That is one of the coolest templates in the store!

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Ugh. Instant crash in Exporting signed APK. Probably because of the AdMob thing...

    I export signed apk directly from Construct with Admob setup, I have never had any problems. just fyi

  • Just out of curiosity, why do you use android studio?

    I am exporting signed APKs directly from Construct and upload them directly to GooglePlay (Yes, with AdMob etc), it all works perfectly without any issues.

    it's a shame that free-users are unable share a completed game

    A free trial version of a software is just a trial version... Should be used to test functionality, not create completed stuff.

    I think 50 events is fair.

  • It would be interesting to hear more about this precedure. Do you have a website, service or tutorial for what to do? ratalaika alvarop

  • I'm following Construct developments for a very long time but what keeps me out is the Cordova wrapping (for Android/iOS). This wrapper makes mobile apps to start in a stuttery way and the app icon doesn't seem to be pressed when user touches it (I hope you understand what I'm talking about). The feeling is of somewhat "broken".

    Since you wanted some input from other forum members as well.. :)

    I have never heard of this issue you describing, so it might be something for your specific device only. Try another one (a new one).

    It sounds quite odd that your events breaks every time you use a new version, it's clearly stated in the release notes what the changes are.

    if you don't want to use the latest versions you can always use old ones. but normally there are more bugs in older versions than newer ones. So that is often a bad idea

  • Hmmm. I don't really want to spend money. I'll find an easier way. I'm going to modify the 'Multiplayer game example' and see what I can get.

    just fyi, you can use playfab for free, with javascript.

  • if you use a dedicated game service then all of this is standard. Like playfab, with photon.

    you can store all player data, upgrades, names, teams etcetera. and to validate unique names etc is a standard setting. you can login with all kind of devices as well

    if you have no experience with multiplayer (as you indicate) you should def use an existing service. to start to create your own with php/firebase etc will be an extreme overkill

    but yea, you will need to invest a few dollars

  • I believe everyone get the same, it is a bug in the latest beta.

    I get the same for apks as well.

  • you can access playfab with javascript.

    But also Chadori has plugins for all playfab integrations and modules, the best plugin package there is for C3. But they are not free. But if you are a serious developer you should have them ;)

    There also already exist Firebase plugins for C3, but Firebase is not built for these functionalities really..

  • use playfab. you can save all data you need for every player, accessible for all platforms. inventories, currencies, leaderboards, etc. all you need. you can connect the player to android, ios, steam, xbox, facebook, google, appleID, etc, as well as custom ID.

    playfab.com

  • You do not have to care about the Template ID, don't fill it in. (it is used if you set up several in the app config file, it is nothing for you to care about though). (And since you obviously don't understand the data field either, don't populate it)

    You can only send one update per session, the others will not be sent. The Sprite you want to share must be placed on the layout.

    If the text will show or not is dependent on the platform and changes for time to time. You can leave it, currently FB only seem to post image though (IIRC they said it was due to GDPR)

    Your green button is not for sending any message, it is just for switching context, verify that the context is actually changing, otherwise the next event will not fire.

    I don't know what your restart function do, so hard to tell. if you restart the game or something then the change context event will not be fired either..
