Does anyone know of a physics engine (library) that works well with Android phones?
I have tried implementing several physics engine and none of them worked very well. They were all laggy because of object creation. The garbage collector took too much time.
So far I have tried: Box2D, Phys2D, JBullet, and APE.
Does anyone know of a library that is optimized for android or works well on Android?
Does anyone know anything?
Not sure if this is what you're looking for but there's an app called blockx 3d that has some amazing physics and fluidity to it's gameplay and runs very smoothly too. It uses alot of 3D physics and motion. It's basically a 3D top-down view of Tetris. I hope that helps if that's what you needed!

n3wgames released a port for android which works very well!
This game is availaible on android market for a very fair price, though originally intended for tablets running honeycomb with tegra chip.
I have bought this game for my tablet and works wonderfully. I have thought of trying this on older hardware to see how this game demanding is.
AND IT WORKS!
I am successfully running this game on typhoon ROM HD2 with chainfire 3D(NVIDIA plugin) There are few problems, but it's nothing hard to fix. Current issue is with S3TC texture compression and rather slow emulation of NVIDIA Tegra part. Looking a way to overcome this.
I'm trying to fine tune graphic settings to:
-get most of detail on my tablet
-reduce quality on HD2 to improve gameplay experience
For example you can tweak some options under
/sdcard/android/data/com.n3vgames.android/trainz/files/userdata/settings
#globalmodule.txt
for example draw-distance can be set higher to increase viewing distance with cost of few FPS, also good/bad-weather-fog can have dramatic impact on game speed. In game options are quite lacking and doesn't have all tweaks needed.
I'm still looking for some settings to add in this file.
Thanks for adreno 200 support
Trainz is adreno200 compatible BUT you must use NVIDIA plugin or you'll get white textures. I'm looking atm for a way to disable S3TC texture compression, it's major performance hogger.

Link!!
So on a dhd it will work OK then if it works on a hd2

Hi guys,
For a few month now I have been developing a 2d engine for android, as well as a game in it which I called "Devil Busters".
At this point, I wanted to show you how far I got. You can download the first 3 levels from
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=engineDemo.com
in case you like it and have a blog/facebook/twitter, you can help fund the project by sharing this link

Thanks!
A game engine that allows you to create angry birds clones?
How original.
If, however, you're just showing the physics capabilities of your engine and you can actually build games that are not related to angry birds, then great work.

Thanks for the reply. ) I'm not saying, that my engine should be used to make CLONES, rather I'm trying to explain for what kind of games it is suited the most. :cyclops:

This emu is pretty young on android, but it is good on windows, and not common fact, it s his own creator porting for android. On play we can configure controls, and there is NO FRAMESKIP ( if you ask, try to change to frameskip 0 for every .emu from broglia on the play and you will understand...soud become laggy every some secs).
This emu is still young so some roms won t load for now, as super mario 2 lost levels (i think it may be that fds is unsupported at the moment), but be patient, the dev is no other than jabo who worked on project64 long time ago.
Yeah, I like Jnes on XPlay, works pretty well except only game that I cant get to load is original Super Mario Bros 1 (or whatever it was called )
Ok, so i ve contacted the dev, really a nice guy. So fds is not supported by now, and maybe will but not in the near future. But great new, he also told me he wanted to makr a new n64 emu for android!!!! not just a port!!! That would be really great knowing that he s the marvellous plugin author of project64, which was my fav emu on pc!!!

Maybe should you try another rom? This way i ve found a hack working for mario bros lost levels
New feature on jnes, that other nes emus don t have: cover artwork, it is a beta feature, but 70 percent of my games have a cover in the listing by now, and it is really cool!

I purchased it as well, I noticed this thread, it's a wonderful emulator, just like it is on the PC, the cover art continues to get better and the UI overall is the best I've seen on my tablet. Hope other people check it out.
Hey guys,
Just wanted to let you know that Brotherhood of Violence by Realtech VR is optimized for the Xperia Play gamepad. You need to check (tick) the 'Joystick' parameter in the Options menu and then it's game on. The button icons etc even come up in the first level tutorial.
Not played it much yet but it has a retro 'Streets of Rage' flavour and is quite cinematic with some console grade graphics to ice it off . The in-game voice-over will have you cracking up with laughter. I think it is intentionally ridiculous as the subtitles (which appear to be compulsory) make more sense.
Character customization appears to be a huge part of the game, though I haven't delved into that yet. Playing with mainstay character Lamar makes the game feel like your playing a crossover of Black Dynamite meets Warriors! Anyhoo, I've said too much! Let me know what you think

Wow, I was just about to buy this on my Microsoft Surface Pro! Think I might just be buying both versions
Thanks for the heads up OP!

Great find man. There are no problems with lags or force closes in this game right? Was looking for a good fighting game on Android.
No lags that I can find yet. But that being said my phone is overclocked and I haven't tested it at factory MHz level.
The voice overs had me giggling too. I really don't think it was intentional either, just sounds like they don't speak english really well. I like Realtech VR, they always include us Xperia Play users.

Yes, it is, for the XPlay. If you think the present price point is too costly, wait until it goes on sale again.
Hey,
Here is my simple memory card game which I released recently.
(except for a few countries at the moment)
There nothing special to it, just matching 2D cards and stuff
Developed with the cocos2d-x 3.17.1 engine for Android and iOS.
Basically you simply find matching pairs. There are alternative modes available and also includes a "Boss" fight where you simply play against an AI.
If anyone has any questions(tech, engine used for the game) or feedback, please let me know

I tried your game, it has an eye-catching graphics but I think I would be better if the animations were a little bit faster.

@hvw_sga
Do you mean the card clipping animations?
Thanks for the feedback :highfive:
