Guides & How-To's / Re: marketing a game on android - QnA

« on: January 01, 2015, 11:18:06 am »

if you're doing an android game, id suggest you start with a name/game type that has decent search/market recognition. check out your target genre category, see whats popular these days, try and make something original, but link it to pre-existing name recognition (thats ideal for indies that cant afford a marketing ad budget).

theres a check box in settings>mobile that overrides back button. once done, go to settings/controls and bind esc. key to the action you want the back button to perform.

iPhone / iPad / Android / 4th android game @stencyl - Don't Tap White Tile Princess

« on: September 08, 2014, 03:36:27 am »

Peace everyone. 4th Game for droid is now out.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.clanstory.donttapprincess

Combines solid artwork with tap tile gameplay. Ideal for little girls that love tap tile, princess/dancing games. Ballerina music themes, unlockable princesses and loads of fun hours of killing time.

Inspired by dont tap white tile by HU Wan Zeng. Special thanks to my art contributors and course, the stencyl team, without whom this could not be possible. Looking forward to play services integration in upcoming stencyl builds so i can add leaderboards, social sharing etc.

Feedback appreciated!

Guys, ive put up a feature request at the stencyl update forums for this plugin to be made an official part of all stencyl releases, so all of us including david can benefit from it without version issues each time core stencyl upgrades.

Please show your support for this feature request here:

Andrew, david is the guy who made the plugin. Im just using it and im not exactly sure how it works. The plugin was working perfectly for stencyl 3.0, due to the new admob sdk all of us have had to move to stencyl 3.2 and now there are some compatibility issues. The only progress ive made so far for 3.2 is that there are no compile errors, but the facebook post dialogue doesnt appear when the post block is called within stencyl.

David is the only guy who can help out ATM. Lets hope he finds time to get this up n running.

After copying the intheboxmacros 1.4 files directly into the facebook extension folder ( i copied them into plaf/haxe folder as well), the game compiles properly, generated a keyhash too. but on the dialogue call, the dialogue box (for posting) is not displayed. debug key generated and submitted to FB, id etc. generated properly as well.

logs generate the following:

Level:     INFO
When:      2014-08-09 17:45:48
From:      stencyl.sw.util.StreamGobbler

I/trace   (28135): HypFacebook.hx:73: bSessionValid ::: false

hope this helps.

David,
getting the following error when i try to compile with only the facebook id and keyhash call (no post called yet).

Unexpected problem on thread Thread-13: String index out of range: -2
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -2
   at java.lang.String.substring(Unknown Source)
   at stencyl.sw.io.write.resource.HXWriter.parseErrors(HXWriter.java:2677)
   at stencyl.sw.io.write.resource.HXWriter.parseForErrors(HXWriter.java:2639)

   at stencyl.sw.util.StreamGobbler.run(StreamGobbler.java:102)

 - neko 2.0 updated
 - inthebox macros 1.04 installed.
- android - using stencyl 3.2 7598.

i think i wasnt supposed to test yet, the fix is still partial. Still, just wanted droid readers to know the current status.
help appreciated, thanks. Please confirm on thread once it works, so i can update my builds.

Found out the issue. need to unzip the extension, get the 'facebook' subfolder and re-zip the subfolder only, then use that for auto installation through the 'install extension' option under extensions tab in settings. trying to compile through droid, lets see how it goes. (stencyl 3.2 build 7598)

iPhone / iPad / Android / 3rd Stencyl Droid Game - Follow the Line PouPou

« on: July 28, 2014, 04:51:21 am »

Peace everyone.
Here's my third title, a comedy cartoon finger runner called  ' Follow the line - PouPou'. It makes use of the popular finger running genre with a bit of search term recognition mixed with it.

Again, stencyl proved to be flawless in terms of stability for my algos. im pretty sure debugging this on andengine or other prevalent platforms wouldve taken months.  Can't thank the team enough for their effort.
Special thanks to Jon and his peers for making such a great, accessible platform. Also, thanks to the FB plugin contributors and the entire stencyl community for making this possible.

Feedback appreciated!
All the best!
