Android Development

Posted by FSt-Germain - January 17th, 2016


I just started working on android development. it's basically the same as making a web game in unity, however designing the game is a totally different process. 

Just because I am doing android doesn't mean I won't still upload to newgrounds. I was thinking about putting a ported version of one of my android games (once it gets made) on newgrounds. I see a lot of games doing that here, and since newgrounds lets you set the resolution, it should be fine. But I'm not 100% sure. The views I get on newgrounds may increase my overall downloads, but if people don't like it because it's just a port and the controls aren't very good, I might actually lose some buisness. Also if people play on newgrounds, I might lose out on ad revenue on mobile (assuming I put ads in).

I think I'll still upload it to newgrounds. I like the site and the community, and since money isn't really my main concern right now, I'll probably be okay.

One other subject is the apple. Most of my friends have iPhones, and it would be nice to let them play the game if they wanted it. But I'll need 100 dollars for the license to put games on the app store, a mac to develop on, which I do have, but it's really slow compared to my PC, which is a struggle, and I don't have a device to test on. So we'll see about an iphone port depending on how well it does...

Any way thanks for reading this update on where I'm at game development wise. Leave a comment about what your doing in game dev. I like to read it, and I always respond, or go play one of my games on newgrounds :)
