Hi!

At the moment I'm trying to make a android version of my game with Cocoon.io and have 2 problems with fullscreen handling:

1. The web version has a fullscreen button, which I don't need in the app. Is there a condition to detect which version is running and make the button only in the web version visible?

2. If I start the app the second time the android status bar is visible. Is there a method to hide the status bar?

How do you handle your android versions?

You're right, that would be possible although it may be irritating collecting diamonds without getting score. I will think about that.

Actually I have to take a deeper look into the Android developer account stuff. Not sure what the costs and benefits are.

Glad you like it! Thank you very much!

The game has a maximum score value. Because otherwise the hiscore table would be not as challenging as it is now. If you replay a level the score of this level is reset until you have collected all diamonds in the level. To ensure that there is a maximum score I had two options:

1. reset the diamonds if you replay the level even if you had collected them all.

2. make the diamonds uncollectible.

I decided that option 1 is too nasty. Especially in the really hard levels this would be like a punishment and prevent players from replaying a level just for fun. Beat level 13, and check your own opinion about that

Android version: I'm not sure at the moment. I'm debating this with myself in the next weeks

But, did you realize that you can play it already on android in the browser?

Thank you very much!

The stars are diamonds And they only serve the purpose of score and an additional ending.

Yes, I could have added a story, but for what purpose? In the end it is just a sadistic but simple game. I didn't see a need for a story.

Hi!

Finally I have managed to finish my game: Fidget - Quick & Dirty!

It's a One-Click/One-Tap jump'n'run game, designed for mobile devices, but working of course on desktops too. You can tap, click or press space to jump. Nothing more to do.

The game progress will be saved after each level. Be warned: the levels are short but hard. And often frustrating. It's a game for badasses not pussies!

Either you'll love it or hate it - or both! <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":mrgreen:" title="Mr. Green">

If I leave the game and then continue I have no longer fullscreen (in fact I can't leave the game, just press home. so it continues next time)

Im unable to recreate this problem on my test devices. Does this happen consistently for you? Can you explain the steps exactly to recreate this bug. You mean, you exit the game to the Android desktop, then later go back into the game by pressing the Game icon and when game reopens, its not fullscreen, is that right? What happens if you force close the game completely, then reopen?

No, it happens not every time. I can't say at the moment when this is happening. If I find out I will tell you.

The missing "quit" button is not a big problem! It is just unusual. Most games (I played) have one.

Another "problem" are the ads. Personally I hate ads! I would prefer a paywall or at least a pay option for getting rid of the ads. I really like your game but even with this rarely ads I won't play this for long. I think ads ruining the playing experience! Of course you want make money and your work honored, but please give a chance to pay you with my respect (money) and not with ruining my nerves (ads).

I played the first 4 levels and like the game so far! Very good graphics, very good gameplay und smooth music. Overall exact my type of game with the style I like

At home I will continue playing

Performance: so far so good! (Galaxy S5, Android 6). I think it's a fault to limit to android 6 or higher! If you will limit it to Android 7 I can't play it anymore. An this even if it runs smoothly on my Android 6. And the very same way I think you lock out potentially players of earlier versions.

Bugs:

In level 3 I will fall through the floor if I jump agains the first right wall, hold and release.

If I leave the game and then continue I have no longer fullscreen (in fact I can't leave the game, just press home. so it continues next time)

Although it's not my type of game it was fun!

The graphics are outstanding und the whole game is made very well!

Update 0.76:

• added camera zoom (experimental)
• reworked cat sprites

Great graphics, I like them a lot!

For another suggestion (pardon me), maybe improving on the cat's sprite animations? (from the game footage the cat looks kinda live-less to me) Other than that it's pretty much solid.

Good luck with your game!

Yeah, you're right. Unfortunately I'm not very good at pixel art. But I will try to improve the cat (what will lead to have to improve the other characters as well ). Thank you!

This game will have success if you release it before Nintendo releases Mario Run

Oh I didn't see this coming, thank you!

If I don't manage to finish the game until the release of Mario I will never release mine because I'm to busy playing Mario

Apart from that mine will be much cheaper
