Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
Tried it.
Problem is that you probably don't have the original rpy files right?
They've been deleted from the game folder and you need to edit options.rpy to make an expansion file. Eep!

Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
Great service! I wish more people would release android versions of their games; it's a great way to get more exposure! Way more people download my game on Google Play than for any other platform (though that may not be true for all games).

If you wanted to, you could have a moreoptions.rpy file with code like:
Code: Select all
init 100:
define build.google_play_key = "whatever"

Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
Thanks.
I tried another build last night and it hadn't worked after getting rid of some of the pre-credits. So I will try it like that.

Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
I have decided to make an expansion APK for the build, what makes it "bothersome"? Also, is 2G the universal size limit for expansion APKs?

Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
One thing that is annoying about them is that you can't upload the expansion until you have made a release without it. It can be a private release, but still, for a long time I couldn't figure out how to upload the expansion APK at all. I don't know if that's still true, though...but if you can't find where to upload the expansion APK, that's why.

Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
Haha. I second that!
There are new games up there, some which are doing quite well in the store... like Locked Heart and Lifted Dreams.
I tried over and over with Adrift but there was something stopping the build from succeeding. I think it was because I couldn't get access to the original files to find the problem. It's really disappointing because it's a great game!

...Would it be possible to port the Hierofanía games?
Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
what happen if I download apk files for these apps? Do they work perfectly and run smoothly? I was recommended for this site http://choilieng.com. btw, as i see on this site, the rating is quite low. so I am wondering about its posibility.

Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
This may sound stupid because I'm still a noob, but is this only for game made by renpy?

Re: Free Google Play Publishing/Android Builds for your game
I don't know what rubyto is getting at, so I'll just ignore that weird question. I don't put anything up on other Android sites generally. I have tried before but haven't realized that it makes much difference.
And yes, it's only for Ren'py games.
