  • Would like to know someones experience on the new version of intelxdk ???

    Zebbi ,

    Yes, i can confirm the performance. I have spent a week or two of testing and Cocoon beats latest XDK. Btw, my game was completely unplayable on Android 4.2.2 (which still holds like 25% of market share) via XDK + Crosswalk, but with Cocoon performance is quite good. I also experienced some bugs regarding music and advertisement in XDK, but Cocoon had nothing like that. I also tried building by Adobe's Phonegapp - the performance was the worst there. Just FYI.

    About your error - the post was in 2014, and a lot could change in this process. I recommend double checking the plug-ins you are using and maybe remove some of them which are not necessary which are not required. As of 09 June 2016, Cocoon is your best shot. It is not perfect, but it is edible.

    Sr. DUKE was practicing Zaxaphone (the lesser of the famous five saxophones) in a jazz quartet down in South Esperanisha when he was summoned to the race track for an impromptu trial run practice in preparation for the 200km Summer Turtle Sprint. The surrounding Spanish mountains began to give way to a-quake'n and a-shake'n, so now its up to you THE PLAYER to SWIPE the boulders from his path, and allow the DUKE to safely succeed!

    Some strange way i got vibes like Mario Kart on SNES but top-down.. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy"> The color theme could be a bit less "aggressive", but seems like a fun top down racer.

    Did anyone else have any problems with home and return buttons on different phones when using Fullscreen option? CocoonJS used to work perfectly with any device buttons, but cocoonio disables these on Galaxy S phones. As example Nexus 5X and virtual device buttons, works perfectly.

    Thanks! It's kindof an anti-racer I guess, in that you have to control the drivers environment 😄 Let me know how it plays on your device if you can, it's smooth on a Nexus 2013 and it's okay enough on a Sony Xperia Z but would be good to know how it works on other devices!

    Thank you, I agree it has the smallest footprint and best performance, just shame it looks a bit like a spy when I'm just using admob and google play games!

  • Ashley is this a difficult switch to implement into a quick update for c2?

  • Zebbi,

    I believe that depends on the plugins you are using. I have built my game this week using Cocoon, and there are just standard permission requirements (internet + write/read storage). I would also recommend looking around for articles about permission removals, like this one: https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1071/r ... mpiled-apk

    Haven't tried myself, but could be of help.

    About the topic, Cocoon delivered great performance compared to XDK and their UX is just brilliant - it is faster and quite convenient to use, and plus, your apps dont get 20mb+ in size. Though, one should be aware of limitations like Letterbox-scale and Web fonts issues before going for it.

    Tools looks good!! I get this:

    Maybe new version doesn't work with the tool? Would you say the very latest XDK is still beaten by C.io's performance?

  • that's what I'm saying.. it's not perfect but i've found it a better experience than xdk. that's all.

    As of right now, with the latest XDK?

  • Zebbi I've never had a problem or complaint about the permissions.. also my main focus is iOS which has no permissions at all. Android is a secondary market to me. It's consistently brought in less revenue than it's iOS counterpart. no matter how much or how little.. always the same.

    What did the Cocoon IO guys tell you when you requested they change this?

    The cocoon guys say very little to me at all, not paid support I guess

  • part12studios what about the obtrusive permissions cocoon needs from players? like identity/contacts? xdk i believe you can turn them off. is xdk on android now up to the same performance as cocoon is?

    Namely I don't want

    Identity

    find accounts on the device

    Contacts

    find accounts on the device

    Wi-Fi connection information

    view Wi-Fi connections

  • As of 8th June, is cocoon faster than XDK for android? Also, how are the permissions these days?

  • Dont think so, Construct mostly does not do 'if this,then that'.

    I will bring even more confused people.

    How about using inverted events to negate the statements that don't want to be considered in separate events?
