Viewing post in Would be nice to see that on an OUYA

Hi Folker, thanks for your message ;).

I don't knwo the agk discord, but I use the AGK forum from TGC. Yes AGE3D (my 3D editor) is open source since 2018. I hope to work on it again but I have to continue my game Arkeos Chronicle before ^^. You're right, I use Purebasic (to create my tools (level editor for Arkeos for exemple, sprite sheet maker and a lot of other tools).

On github, I have send some of my purebasic applicationé & Codes (open source too). I use blender for all : create my image (2D isometric) and 3D model and animations.

I hope to have a stable version of arkeos chronicle for Ouya (android 4.1 port, I don't use shaders on arkeos chronicle), but I need some specifications :

do I need to use the joystick to control the player move ? (I can test with my Xbox joystick)
are they any other specifications to know ? or a sort of ouya simulator to test the game before to send it ?
who could send the game to the ouya store (of course, totaly free game) ?

Thanks for your informations ;)

Yes! It would be the best, if your game would support the XBox 360 controller input on your PC. No matter if you use RAW-Joystick or Joystick commands. A simple export to Minimum Android Version 4.1 (API 16) in AGK would do the rest. You can specify it also for export for OUYA with a nice picture. OUYA Large Icon should be 732 x 412 PNG. You need a "Version Name" and "Version Number" and a unique "Package Name". APK Type: Ouya. (these would work best) . XInput is supported by the OUYA. So XBox controller support would fit very well. The OUYA has no [ START ] or [ SELECT ] button. So for a menu or pause, maybe such thing like the ( Y ) button would be a good fit. The OUYA doesn't support tilt or gyroscope or such things. No sensors supported. You could upload your OUYA version here to itch.io and someone from the community OUYA board could download it and upload it to the community server. That was the way we have done it with my game "Snuggle Puggle". With these settings it would also work without problems on "Retroid Pocket 2". App Game Kit Discord: https://discord.com/invite/7ENUvnE OUYA discord: https://discord.com/invite/aey9jVG maybe we can provide you with a console, or can help you with testing over there. And thanks for your work on this game. It looks beautiful. Every new game helps. If we can help you with something, let us know. Kind regards.
