Hi Guys,

I've been hard at work for the past week working on my competition entry for the TGC Nexus Competition, so sorry I didn't get around to posting this until now thread (I know it's a bit last minute).

Below are some pictures of the "The Bird Game":














The game was made using AppGameKit V1 Tier 1, however a few features were "hacked" into the interpreter such as:

Google Play Game Services for leaderboards and achievements
Admob full screen interstitial ads

Mind writing a tut on how to hack the T1 player?

As for the game, it looks cool! I installed it onto my dead phone to get you an extra install, I might install it onto my working phone when I've cleared some space off it too.

I'd be very interested in knowing how you implemented Google Play services. Please let us know!

Hey Guys,

Yodogs5 is my brother, he made the artwork for this game while I handled all the programming. Writing a tutorial for implementing Google Play Services would probably be a bit of an in-depth tutorial. If there is enough community in interest in one I wouldn't mind writing one. For now, I can tell you that the method I used is quite similar to the method I used to get the Ouya SDK working with AGK. I explained that a bit here in this post: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=206360&b=41&msg=2466825#m2466825

I spent a bit of time integrating Chartboost ads so I have an idea of how to do it, but would love to at the very least just see your java files. With Chartboost I repurposed the CreateAdvert command to do all of the necessary work. I'm wondering how you did it.

I was going to try to implement Google Play services but I wanted to get started programming games.

So, I'm very interested.

On the leaderboards, is it just an AGKHelper.java mod like Naphiers Chartboost interstitial ads hack?
If so, would you mind sending me the details/files to developer@audaciagames.com? I want to integrate this into my newest WIP and would like to get it done as soon as possible. If you can't, I understand completely, but if so, I'd really appreciate it

They're a bit more complicated than that, it's a modification of several files such as the main.c, manifest.xml, and a custom java file.

Are you actually able to return the google user id (getPlayerID) back to the tier 1 code? This would be important for me because I'd like to use it as a sign-in option for Wordspionage and for that I need a unique identifier that will persist across multiple devices.

You're correct, I don't make any changes to main.c
I'm very curious to know what changes you had to make there.

I didn't have any use for GetPlayerID, however with some edits it would be easily possible to return into back into tier 1 code.

Ok then, do you know approximately when you'll be able to write a tut by? This is basically the only feature left to add to my latest WIP, so I can't really move forward much with it until then Of course, I can simply start planning my next game Already got an idea for it (one that should actually make a considerable profit, unlike ever single other app I've ever made)

Hey Guys,

I made the tutorial for full screen interstitial Admob ads. I started off with this one since it's a lot easier and less in-depth than Google Play Services. I still plan on making the tutorial for Google Play Services, however it'll probably be quite a lengthy tutorial so it could take some time.

Here's the link for the interstitial ad tutorial:
