  • In Construct 2 for the Text font, i tried different fonts: Calibri, Tahoma, and Dejavu Sans. When I put the game onto the phone to test it however, the font is always the same. The font (Calibri, Tahoma, Dejavu Sans) does not show on the phone.

    The font changes in Construct 2, but the font stays exactly the same when the game is on the phone. I did a side by side comparison test and there is no distinguishing them. No matter what font I set in Construct 2, the Droid turbo does not use it. It only uses Arial.

  • Browser action go to, Browser action open new window, none works.

    Is there no way to open a browser while the app is running on an Android phone?

  • NOPE https://software.intel.com/en-us/articl ... ernal-apps

    FAILBOAT! I put an asterik into all three to be thorough. It says, put an asterik to allow all. I did that about both go to URL and open new WIndow for Browswer are not workng!

  • Try Construct 3

  • It does not work on the phone. The Go To Browser function does not launch a browser with the listed URL on the phone.

    Is there no way at all to do this? Click a button. Doing so Launches a browser, on the phone, with the listed URL.

  • The Browser function launch URL does not work on the phone. Again, it does not work on the phone. This is an absolute must. Am I missing something? The function says launch URL, but it's not launching the URL.

    How, on a phone, can a browser, with a URL, be launched when a button is clicked? I know "On Click." The issue is getting the URL to launch.

    Oh, horse-puckey. I did go to URL instead of open New Window.

  • I haven't sold anything, but it depends on a number of factors, im guessing.

    1.) The price of your apps on the store. Google takes 30%, but that still leaves you 70&. Say your game is $1, so you get 70cents per sale. That may not seem like a lot, but it can add up over time. Google and others have written guides about how to price apps, recommendations.

    2.) Promoting. Promoting your game to family and friends may help, then asking them to pass the word along.

    3.) Social media. Having a Facebook page and/or Twitter account can help drive traffic to your app on Google Play. More traffic > more sales. All of which increases the purchases.

    Together, and depending on those factors, will determine if/when you get the $25 back.

  • For people who have used Intel XDX to compile their app's .apk(s) and for people who are familiar with Intel XDX. Yes, I posted this question on their forums and the silence speaks volumes.

    Apparently, Intel XDX is, according to the tutorials I read about publishing games, a method to compile the .apk from Construct 2 files.

    It however requires certain irremovable permissions.

    "

    The app that I am helping to develop does not require an internet connection. When I installed the .apk from Intel XDX, i see three permissions.

    I know that this are mandatory permissions: https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/fa ... ermissions

    How do I explain to the end-users these required permissions? If they wonder or ask why they are required? May I link Intel XDX supports email address? Can i add that link here? https://software.intel.com/en-us/xdk/fa ... ermissions in the store page?

    These Permissions:

    * Full Network Access

    * View Network Connections

    *View Wi-fi Connections. "

    How can I explain these to the end-users? this app does not require any internet or data connection whatsoever. Since Intel XDX mandates it, how can I explain to the users what they are and why they are needed? Or should I just, in the store page, include a link to the FAQ and Intel's corporate HQ email address? Since they're the ones who require those three permissions, they can explain it.

    [quote:16mafmoi]Open URL in new window

    Navigate to a given URL in a new window (or tab if the browser settings override). This continues to run the HTML5 game in the old window or tab.

    edit: ninja'd ><

    It should work. Is your URL in quotes?

    Browser - Go to "http://www.google.com" in a new window ("NewWindow") [/code:16mafmoi]
    is how it shows up on my event sheet, and it works ok.
    
    
    Oh, it has to be in quotes.  I'll put it into quotes.
  • Can I do this on a mobile phone? I looked at the browser object and Behaviors is grayed out. The browser option has no behaviors (its grayed out.)

    On the mobile phone, they click a button and it launches the URL.

  • I found the Browser object. It says, enter the full URL to navigate to it. I did enter it, but its showing an error when i click done.

    It's taking issue with both http:// and

  • Is there a function where if you click a button, it launches the device's default browser with a URL? As in, you click the button, the button has a URL (click launch URL) and that launches a browser window?
