[Q] Couple of questions about Android development - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys, first question is if I was to sell apps or games on Google Play what sort of taxes will I get charged (I am Australian btw) also which game engine would be best to create a goal-kick game (either rugby of afl) or possibly even an adventure game. I've had a bit of a play around with Unity which I didn't really like, I would like to know if ShiVa would be worth it, or should I just stick to some of the 2d game engines (which one of them would you recommend?). Also quickly does anyone want me to upload anything to Google Play for them (I will only upload it as a Free app) and sorry but I cannot pay you anything for publishing your app or game. Thanks guys

I know Google takes 30%

[GAME][2.3+]RAFT - Survive on Raft(ALPHA)

Hi guys. I'm young developer from Poland(19 yers old) and I'm working on creating a raft survival game on android. I started creating it 4 days ago and I have basic alpha version on Google Play. I'm adding updates every single day and work almost 18 hours a day to make it work. And it is paying off(not in the money ) but for the first time in my game development career my app is getting downloads. But there is planty of scam app. Just search "Raft" in google play and look at the reviews of first top 5/6 apps. I'm trying my best to get to the people that really want to play Raft but these scam apps are scaring people away. I know this is a self promotion. I know this game is in pre alpha and doesn't have a lot of content but I'm doing my best and I would really love to see people playing and enjoying my work. So if you have a little time and android phone, could you please download my app and give here a feedback? So I can work on things that people want? I will start a game forum in this weekend to give you a chance to influence game development and give it a direction that you players want it to go.

Also I will answer any questions about game development, how to start, how to do it, where to learn, how to publish your game on Google Play and everything you can think of

[FREE][Game][RPG] Fate Of Disciples

Turn-based old school role-playing game
On creation of this game I was inspired by Disples II and Hand Of Fate. I tried to take the best of them, expanding and improving their ideas.
There is no advertising and paid content in the game, it was created exceptionally for people to play and enjoy it.

Where to get offline apps?

Is there a site where people mod old/dead games to be playable offline? I miss a few games I used to play, no longer available, and wanted to know if anyone knows a place where modders have messed with old apps to remove the server connectivity from them?
Is this too ambitious of a dream? I don't know how hard it would be to remove that particular component of a game, probably not very easy, I'd imagine.

There is this one site I know of, however it violates the terms of service I believe if I send you a link. Besides, a lot of those 3rd party app stores which have free apps may contain malware, I only use them on a dummy phone. If you are trying to play games such as angry birds then yea you can play it offline. If you are trying to play a game and want to remove ads, I remember lukcy-patcher was good for it. If you wanna play a game such as super mario run, then that is not possible since that game requires you to be connected online since nintendo doesn't want this type of behavior.

I'm aware of the malware many sites that distribute APKs are plagued with, I virustotal every APK before installing, if I do elect to download from a seedy site at all.
As for what I'm looking for, like I said in my original post, I'm looking for playable versions of games that are dead, and removed from service and mainstream distribution. Games like Tekken Card and Evilbane. Both of these games used to be playable without a connection, you'd just earn less rewards for in-game missions if you weren't connected to servers. I just want to find a way to play them again, as the servers are offline for those games and other games like them.

Bigfoot in-game resource map. (A quick fix for Fortnite Android)

After playing Fortnite mobile on IOS for many months... it became obvious that supplies drop imbalance will always be an issue for me... I tried to use resource maps online but i have to constantly tab out of the game to look... It was really obnoxious to lose a game because someone gets the perfect weapon and wastes you..But with the release of the game on Android I started to work on something that can make the game more fair for everyone so here it is, took me a few weeks to do but i think its well worth it.. it lets me see where all the supplies are on the in-game map on the fly.. I didnt have time to name it so i just called it bigfoot( suggestions on naming it would be appreciated ) I only made it for android because sadly i suck at developing IOS applications.
Just want to share with because im sure im not the only person who run into supplies issues, and hope this will help anyone who tries it. (This app will always be free with no ads, because its only purpose is to help the community and making app is one of my favorite things to do)
