Its frustrating to say the least... I have built many games and published them to the android store.
But, like you said... when it comes to using the third party plugins like IAP and admob the XDK and others change so often that the plugins break. Then you spend more time trying to find new plugins and a fix for the problem... is it C2 ? is it XDK? who knows??? it just doesnt work anymore... It used to work, now its broke. story of my life with this software.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE Construct 2. Its amazing!
But every time I goto release a new app something has changed and features like in app purchases just dont work.
Im stuck right now... I have built 6 versions of the same app trying to get IAP to load and keep getting errors and im using the C2 house plugins.
Makes me want to give up and sell hot dogs or something. .... ....
