Gamers or DEVs? We need you! - General Topics

Hello ~Everyone! I am working in a Chinese mobile game company and our games are all for western gamers. However, I am not a professional gamer and don’t know well about western game market…I really want to ask some questions that always make me confused : where do people find games from? What is the point that can attract western gamers, the graphic? Story? Or just follow the crowd?

Game that is unique. And can be viral. I don't like Games with good story but bad in gfx (Just like playing pokemon gba but its also good XD)

I agree with u that every game is unique. Um... Could you tell me where do you get games usually? In China , we get games in kinds of app store by Baidu search or the Third app market in our mobile phone.

game does look like I could spend a little time on it but I am going to down load for my kid!
Thanks for the free game!

Anyway, we'll try to do our best when we release new version of the game.
Who said that old Nintendo graphics is bad?
What I'm interesting more is feedback on the gameplay, graphics can be improved easily but if the idea and gameplay is not good enough, then it is really not good.
Trolls playing Mods and getting it all wrong. Funny. Game looks alright to me. Its free. Get over it.
Sent from me... to you... to me... to you...

Report me or ban me, I don't care but Mazda needs to have a little bit more respect for people.

Thanks More free games are coming
I saw gameplay on youtube and game looks really great and addictive, will play it later but when I download it you will probably get 5 stars. Cheers!
Well.. i can't play it, i'm using a Optimus One so i'm blaming arm6
Anyway, game looks cool, but i would advice you to put some more info in the first post... game description, captures, or just some more general info
Thank you for the game. I love this "old Nintendo style" gfx though, I still use my Amiga computer to play games, too maybe that's why Wonder why you give it away for free.

I would love to post more info, including video and link to the game homepage, but unfortunately I have status "Junior Member", and all what I can post so far is text (I'm member of XDA since 2006, but I was more reader and ROM downloader before ). Some more activity in this topic and I will be able to enrich my first post
Finally I'm able to post links, first post updated with actual information (links in Google Play and YouTube).
Information about the game is now also in XDA blog. :good: Thank you, POORCOLLEGEGUY

I'm giving it away for free because the market is very tough nowadays, nobody will buy your game if you do not have already your own brand or/and huge amount of money for marketing. If Rovio releases new game they can sell quite well even if the game is quite usual because everybody knows them as "Angry birds" developers. If "no name" developer like me and my team is releasing even brilliant game, nobody will even notice it in 1.000.000 apps market. That's the truth of life.

My pleasure sir, it was a fun little game

Thinking of making a Platformer

Like the title says i am thinking of making one, i want to use unity 3d's now free mobile engine. was thinking of making a sorta like Oscura or Limbo. i would like the first game we do to be free but possibly we can make more games if people are happy with this game. to be able to put on the play store it costs 25$, i dont know if we all have to but we will figure it out please pm or post reply if you would like to join in
There might be better places to appeal for support, it would also be wise to find likeminded people first, who have an interest and some knowledge who can help you. As for unity, as its free, you would be better off making the majority of the game first before you ask for the cash investment.

[Game][4.0+] Magium- A text based fantasy themed Choose your own adventure game

Hello!
I've recently completed the first book of my text adventure game after a year of work, and I would be very grateful if you could give it a try and give me some feedback. In this game you play as an ordinary guy trying to win a mage tournament against the most powerful mages in the world, in the hopes of winning the grand prize, and using it to fulfill your lifelong dream of becoming a mage yourself.
As you progress, you will also get to know the inhabitants of the continent that the tournament takes place on, and you will learn that a person called the Creator established several utopias in this realm a few hundred years ago, where animals and humans could live in harmony, and where food was created through magic. What you will get to experience throughout the game, however, is the downfall of these utopias, and you can even choose to save them from destruction if you so desire.
Besides the traditional choice making, you also have stats you can level up, and there are different checks in the game to see if you have the necessary level to take a certain action. For example, if your ancient languages level is high enough, you can understand when the animals or monsters speak.
Here is the link to the game: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.magiumgames.magium
I hope you'll all enjoy playing this game as much as I enjoyed making it!
Cheers!
Congratulations
Dude, your game is just amazing, the best app I have ever downloaded in my phone, I just want to congratulate you and say that I cant wait to see what happens next! Keep up with the good work (and please tell me the first book's ending can be reversed ).
P.S.: why don't you put your game for ios as well? I have some friends that loved the idea but only have iPhones.
I just saw the XDA thread on r/androiddev and I remembered this forum. Just wanted to let everyone here know that since my initial post on this forum, the 2nd book has also been completed and the story is still in progress. Chapter 4 of book 3 was published a few days ago on android and iOS.
Cheers!
Hey there, thanks for sharing your game!

Unfortunately, it looks like Google Play purchases are unavailable in Montenegro, and this game relies exclusively on IAPs for income (the game doesn't have any ads). Aside from that, if I were to publish the game there without an option to pay to unlock the next books faster, I'd be sure to get negative reviews from people. I'll publish it there if Google ever makes purchases available in that region.

Makes sense. Maybe you could consider making an alternative version without IAPs, so that you could sell it from Play Store and XDA store with an upfront price? Or maybe there are other IAP providers that do not depend on Google's slow expansion? I have no idea how practical that would be, but at least you would be able to reach a few more people...

I can't really sell it with an upfront price because the game is still in development. The first two books and first four chapters of book 3 are available, which all amount to around 600k words on all paths, but the series will have 5 books or more, and I don't want to ask for the full price now, because it takes a long time to write these.
I had the game up on the amazon store for some time, but there were barely any downloads coming from there, so I pulled it out, because it wasn't worth the extra effort to port a new version for that store.
When the whole story is finished, I'm planning to put a full-priced version of the game on Steam, and maybe then I'll also consider some other stores, but that will be years from now.
Ok, good luck and sorry for noise.
Amazing story, enjoyable and fun. Must be crazy hard to keep up with writing it tho.
A song that kinda feels like it matches this is "Tabi no Tochuu (Spice and Wolf)" by AmaLee.
Barry (my one at least) is a crazy but smart guy focused on his aim, which I love.
Good luck with the rest of it, I'll defo be keeping up.
PS - You might wanna secure achievements by forcing over the cloud or something cause someone can get the books for free by editing the savefile as root.
This is interesting

Looking for ad free/paid casino app

Greetings!
I'm looking for some casino/slot type android games for my elderly mother. with the pandemic, she can't go many places, so this would be something that can entertain her somewhat.
however, most casino/slot games have many, many ads and really just want you to pay with real money to keep on playing; and besides she has a language barrier problem so a lot of ads/random questions the so-far tried games throw at her creates problems. I do not mind paying for a game. however, for the life of me, I can't seem to find any paid ad-free casino games. casino apps I searched for all contain ads, sure they are free but.... anyway if you know one or two that's truly ad-free paid or free, please let me know.
thanks!
There's app called governor of poker 2 and it has premium version also so i think it has no ads. I have played governor of poker 1 and it was fun poker game to play. Check that out.

thanks. but she doesn't know how to play poker - only slots and maybe blackjack
Also would take W88 for a spin....
I also prefer clean apps without any ads. But sorry for that I am not clear about casino apps as I don't play gambling games.
Btw, the OP is a filial and kind son. :good:
FacelessStuart said:
Bro, I fully understand you in this aspect. I am so tired of endless advertisement in applications too and I even buy some paid versions to work without any ads. But as for the casinos, I suppose that it is better to choose not according to the advertisement, but according to the chance of a win. Of course, all of them are trying to tell us that only their platform is the best, but I saw a great number of bad responses on casinos and now I am testing fairspin.io that is working with the blockchain system. To be honest, I don't understand how it works, but it looks rather nice, hahah

Yeah, I've heard about fairspin a lot. As far as I know, it is the first casino platform which is based on a blockchain. I played there only once and to be honest, I didn't felt any differences. But I think that it is not bad, on the opposite, it is cool, that you can play your favorite games with the comprehension of your chances to win. Yep, there is no cheating on blockchain-based platforms. It is impossible to cheat there. So, I think that it is a quite good platform for playing. I'm waiting for some more platforms like this.
your mother like bingo?
