    [DEV] Hey, we brought our console game The Gardens Between to Android and we're worried about performance issues! Plz halp. If you have one of the Android devices listing in this post and are willing to send feedback on how well it runs, I'll trade you a free copy for your thoughts. Thanks!

    TLDR:

    Do you have one of these devices and live outside the USA?

    • ZTE Z6530V
    • ZTE Blade V10 (or any other phone with a Mediatek Helio P70)
    • Huawei P30 lite (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Huawei P9 Plus (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Huawei P9 (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Walton RX7 Mini - (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Oppo realme 3 (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Samsung Galaxy S7 (SPOTS FILLED)

    If you do, please sound off in the comments with the device you have and if you're one of the first three people with that device then I'll send you a free copy via DM**.** Once you've got the game then please play the game taking note of how smooth it runs, and report back with your findings!

    Hey Reddit,

    So we made The Gardens Between - a single player puzzle adventure game where you control time, not the characters. We just opened Early Access on Android.

    It released on all desktop and all console platforms in 2018 and we've spent the last two years optimising the performance to get it running smoothly on Android. We also accommodated touch first controls in 2019 when we did iOS.

    But even though we've spent a lot of effort improving the performance and building a system to pick a smart default graphics level, it's impossible to get it perfect first time for every single device. We only have 7 android devices in our studio, (see five below), 10 on an automated testing bot, and another 14 with our QA team in Vietnam. That's only 28 unique Android devices in total, a mere 0.008% of all the Android devices we support. And we cut out A LOT of devices from the catalogue - I'm talking like 12,500 slow devices were removed from the list.

    Five of our testing devices in the studio; Huawei P20 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung S10e, Samsung A50 and a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro. We also have a Nexus 5X, and a Pixel 3.

    You can see our full list of devices that we've tested on and their FPS scores in this spreadsheet. We've cherry picked the five most performance heavy moments in the game to stress test the default settings. We're using the device ratings from each device to plot a sort of spectrum of device capabilities and turning on features as you move up the spectrum.

    Default Graphic Settings levels;

    • Very low: all bells and whistles turned off at 360p.
    • Low: enable full screen post-fx to highlight objects that move in time, character IK. 480p.
    • Medium; enable shadows. 480p.
    • High: enable reflections of the world and main objects. 520p.
    • Very High: include characters in reflections, high res shadows, bloom and floppy hair. 720p.
    • Ultra: 60fps. 1080p.

    Note: you can change these settings to make your own custom configurations.

    Pick from the pre-defined graphical quality tiers, or make your own custom setting.

    Technical Details;

    We grade the CPU and GPU capabilities separately using the AQHAT Unity plug-in from the Asset Store - thanks Eager Amoeba®. The average of the GPU and CPU scores are used to bucket the devices, like Low, Medium, High etc, but then if the CPU or GPU individually don't meet the requirements of that bucket then the device falls lower until it meets the individual requirements. For example something like a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro has an amazing GPU for its year of manufacture, but the CPU can't keep up so it has to fall back to Very Low.

    We want everyone who buys the game to get a silky smooth 30fps for the vast majority of the game, whilst also looking as sharp as possible. Have we chosen the default settings that push the devices as hard as possible?

    Why we need your help:

    With only 28 devices at our access there are 3472 remaining devices we haven't tried the game on. In particular devices with Mediatek and Hisilicon Kirin processors are blackspots to us. I've listed a bunch of devices I'm curious to learn more about at the top of the post. If you've got one of those devices I'd love to hear your thoughts about how smoothly the game runs. You can experiment around with your own settings and tell me what settings you think it should have by default if you're really keen. Please note that the most performance heavy moment in the whole game is the dinosaur level - that's where you need to prove your phone can handle your settings.

    Please comment with your device model name and I'll DM you back if you're one of the first three to post with that model.

    Edit: Sorry we can't accept testers from the USA right now, it's not available there until the full launch.

    Wow you made it this far in my post :) Thank you!

    PS: Side note! We don't have a device fast enough in-house to run at 60 FPS! And there's some other wacky configs out there I'd like tested! If you have one of the following and are first to respond I'll send you a copy too. Do you have:

    • Samsung Galaxy Fold :)
    • Razer Phone 2
    • Google Pixel 4 (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Samsung Galaxy S20 (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Samsung Galaxy S20+ (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (SPOTS FILLED)
    • OnePlus 8 Pro (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Black Shark 2 (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Nubia Red Magic 5G (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Asus ROG Phone 2 (SPOTS FILLED)
    • Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus (SPOTS FILLED)

    [DEV] untitled upcoming underwater adventure

    Posted: 01 Jun 2020 09:09 PM PDT

    Looking for a survival game with some specific features.

    Posted: 01 Jun 2020 05:12 PM PDT

    I just tried last day on earth and although I liked it a lot, the 2 biggest issues I had was the wait time for travel, and harsh death penalty. After gearing up my best stuff and losing it all to a lag death 2 times I rage quit. I dont really care if you need to spend some money either as premium or freemium. I've already tried crashlands and liked it but got bored after a week or 2. Downloading westland survival now and will give it a shot for a few days. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Roast my (Early Access) mobile game about driving around in a city running over Zombies and Pedestrians with Active Ragdoll Physics. No ads or IAP.

    Roast my (Early Access) mobile game about driving around in a city running over Zombies and Pedestrians with Active Ragdoll Physics. No ads or IAP.

    Hey everyone,

    I just released Sandbox City on Google Play (Early Access): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reckoning.carragdoll

    Running over zombies

    I've been working on this game for a few months now and I wanted to get something out on the store as soon as I had something that felt a bit of fun on my hands to collect early feedback. It's a bit of a stretch to call it a "game" yet but we will get there soon.

    I put a lot of focus so far on two main parts:

    - Character/ragdoll physics. Using the PuppetMaster package for Unity, I was able to make the characters' animations physically active. As you run into them with your character or run over them with your car, they will react realistically and try to protect themselves while falling. I've always had a soft spot for ragdoll physics in games (Max Payne 2 anyone?) and this is my own take on ragdoll physics that feels fun.

    - Graphics settings. If you tap the gear icon at the top left, you will open a Settings side panel with loads of graphics options. I wanted to give the players complete freedom over selecting the graphics options they care about, along with existing presets that make it easy for people that don't want to bother with every option.

    That being said, I'd be very happy if you played it and told me everything that you hate about it so I can get to fixing it to make the game better :) So please, go ahead and roast my game.

    Thanks!

    EDIT: A couple words.

    Question based on gacha games.

    Posted: 01 Jun 2020 05:04 PM PDT

    I am trying to build a gacha game of my own and thought getting player input is necessary.

    So I have some questions :-

    1) Gacha with inapp purchases or one time payment? - I see most gachas as money greedy games where many players spend tons of money while those who don't feel left out of content amd then go on to delete or leave bad rating.

    2) 2d or 3d characters? - Most of the successful gachas out there are 2d based and I just wanted to know if 3d gachas are even desirable

    3)High quality or low quality graphics? - Games like afk arena use simple graphics, final fantasy too whereas games like fate grand order use a more high quality graphics. So which among these attracts you the most?

    4)Storyline important? -I have hardly ever gone through any story told in gacha games but almost every gacha game has one. So is story important or is just leaving character stories like in afk arena enough.

    5)Shard based or character based gacha? -I see many games using shards in packs to unlock character and many others who make tons of character and give characters in packs. Many games also use a combination of both. So which is better?

    6) fantasy based characters or futuristic? -Most gachas I see are fantasy based and only a few use futuristic characters.

    7) Turn based combat or auto? -I know most gachas have auto play as option but games hoda use auto play only. Them there are games like afk arena who use turn based attacks with skill moves but hoda has only one attack animation.

    Gaming on Android with PS4 controller

    Posted: 01 Jun 2020 09:21 PM PDT

    Looking for suggestions for games that play well with a controller. Could be free or paid, been playing a lot of ROMS lately as well, just noticed a lot of games are wonky with a controller or just dont support one at all. I hate the weird touch controls of most games so I try to play with the PS4 controller only really. TIA.

    Citra MMJ is an unofficial build by Citra, which has additional features and from what I realized, much less flaws in the audio.
