While testing my code on an android device (Amazon Fire tablet), I noticed that some of the sprites in the game do not appear at all. This is not a problem with the same code running on iOS, Mac or PC. I cannot see any obvious difference between the sprites that do appear and the ones that don't, either in the code or with the images used for each sprite. What could be the cause of this issue?

android devices are case sensitive so if the name you use in your app does NOT match the name of the file EXACTLY then it won't load.
eg: LoadImage("FileName.png") will fail to load a file called "filename.png"

Checked the file names - not the issue. Something else is happening.

Broadcasting is how I'm running on Android; not able to do it another way.

Ok. Try these things
1. Go into your C:\Users\yourid\AppData\Local\AGKApps folder and delete the folder named after your app
2. Uninstall and reinstall the AppGameKit app on your Fire tablet
3. Create and .APK and see if that runs of (If it works ok i would report the issue to TGC)

I'm on a Mac; not sure which corresponding Mac folder you're referring to.
