discussion Android - is there a reason not every game has them?

[Perfect34]

I'm generally curious as it seems they all are all able to be converted to an .apk file. The exception would be unity game but I've still seen some get converted. I see most of the time it takes longer to get a release update for Android or someone else steps in cause the developer is unable. It's out that much harder? Do people play more on a computer than a phone? I feel the phone is the easiest. There are times I have to go searching.
Lastly, should LC have a dedicated section for android converted games?

Not every game have it, just because game engines like RPGM is soo old (like 20 years?) or like QSP, developed when mobile phone was more phone than pc in pocket

Or even more common - because developer lazy to have second project that must have difference for every platform he develop, so that why they ignore most popular platform in world, they just lazy...

Which emulator would you recommend? I'd like to finish Mystwood Manor. Man of the house was good but I went more phone than pc afterwards

Id say winlator is the best out there currently,it literally turns your phone into a computer,as long as your phone can handle the sistem requirements the game will work,not only for avns but any game
Made a thread about this btw

 

[Perfect34]

I'll check it out. May be a solution. Phone can certainly handle.

If you want i can test the game right now and see if it works well or with a bit of lag

That is true,because the access to an android phone(expecially in the data/sistem files) will continue to get more and more restricted for "safety reasons" they say

It is due to the android version being lower,if you update it to 13 or up you wont be able to anymore unless you have a pc to connect to it and search manually,the worst thing is that theres not even a way to root most phones with android 13 and up in order to fully access the phone (altrough it makes it easier to get hacked and its extremely vulnerable when you go on sussy sites)

 

[Perfect34]

I'm for android due to the versatility. Don't restrict me

Unfortunately cannot play it looks like the game works but it requires direct x 11 and i can not install , and i cannot find the .log file to see whats wrong with it either

Thanks for the effort! I've seen his older games converted before but this one looks to be more complex. Shame since it has a good build.
