    You can try Furries done by forum user Ranma. It's entirely made in c2 and exported with phonegap.

  • Just a curiosity... How do you recognize garbage collector logs in logcat? I set it to Verbose and still don't find them.

  • 1) Yes, now it's possible with some tips and optimizations. (There's a tutorial about mobile devices. The author has some apps on google play).

    Directcanvas and cocoonjs will remove this bottleneck.

    2) In my case (I'm on the android side) I use 800x480 resolution and looks good on different devices.

    3) Currently I use phonegap (getting 15-20 FPS) but I'm waiting for CocoonJS release. I used AppMobi containers for a while but I found it somewhat bloated and I really don't like the unkind support.

    4) Yes. You can use webstorage plugin. It works with phonegap. Hopefully there will be something similar in CocoonJS (CocoonJS doesn't use a browser so webstorage plugin support is still a question mark)

  • Clyde in action... A little progress on GFX side.

  • If you're talking about webstorage saved data there's a clear local storage action for this.

    If you're talking about resetting a single session you can write a simple refresh page javascript and call it through the callJS plugin (Maybe there's even a simpler way but here there are 40?C and my brain is melting <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> )

    EDIT: Ashley knows a simpler way <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • CocoonJS seems to use also m4a on Android and not only ogg. Try to convert all the missing sounds in m4a.

  • delgado

    I tried to debug your app through eclipse and logcat and I get this error (or similar errors) when it tries to play a sound.

    Are you sure you have these files in the right directory?

  • Phonegap is simply a wrapper.

    The real bottleneck is the default browser so we have to hope a full support of HTML5 features and hw acceleration on WP8.

    BTW I didn't find WP7 performance so bad (20-25 FPS), the real problem on IE mobile is the awful touch support.

  • Oh... I forgot this...

    Currently I use this workaround.

    player has wall on the left

    player is not on floor

    -->

    player set x to player.x + 1

    If you use an invisible box as player you can adjust via events the position of the main charachter to avoid any noticeable gap between the sprite and the wall.

  • Kyatric

    I'm sorry but I don't use the canvas plugin on my current project.

    In my case the crash was caused by Appmobi and CallJS plugins.

  • Today I finally managed to avoid the black screen of death on CocoonJS...

    There are some glitches on tiledbackgrounds, some crashes here and there during the game, no accelerometer support and I haven't found a way to lock the screen in landscape mode but... but.. well...

    THE PERFORMANCE IS F... AWESOME!!!! Fps are nearly double than phonegap builds, sometimes my game can reach 40fps on an average phone... and with polyphonic audio!

    I'm waiting for a release with a better integration with C2 features and in the meantime I thank Scirra and Ludei for the great work they're doing.

  • Try to remove the appMobi plugin. It worked for me.

  • Ashley

    I'm trying to post some crispier pictures of this work but I get a false positive spam detecion alert... How can I avoid this? Can you suggest me some image hosting services that don't trigger on the spam policies?

  • Clyde is the superfast snail that will save the world from 2012 maya predictions!

    I'm sorry for the video quality... my Canon is currently under repair, I'll post a proper video ASAP but I was too excited to not share the first steps (err... steps?!?) of this little snail. <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle">

    All technical details are in the video description.

  • This is AWESOME!!!
