How to make reward ads? [HELP!]

#1 Post by beastcarving » Mon Aug 17, 2020 9:14 pm

I understand that no one likes ads, but if they choose to watch them then an are compensated after the fact, I'm sure they won't mind. Is there any way to add this feature. I tried following some google tutorials, but I didn't get very far. Can someone help me with this? I'd be very grateful for the help.

as far as I know there is currently no tutorial for that.
But you can try to make it yourself first by using the the tut in 1.
Then I would change the displayed add to use rewardedAd.loadAd(); and rewardedAd.show so 1 add is showing when starting the game instead of the banner.
Then pack the showing into a Function that can be called from renpy.
Then take care of the preload as you can load the ad in the background so the user dose not have to wait for the ad to be loaded.

Also that only works on android not on windows so you need to find a other monetization model there. There was UWP ads but that is gone as far as I know

I've played other renpy games with this feature, and I love to know how it's done, step-by-step.
