Thanks!

Just tested my Bluetooth Acteck G200 gamepad and it works great with Sonic Mania, it's being recognized as an XBOX controller.
yeah, I have a ps4 controller tied to it. it works great with both sonic mania and sm64. the ps5 dual sense doesn't seem to like my phone though.

Could you please share you SM64 Android build? "For testing purposes" ofc. :ha:

Thanks in advance!

Seems the latest Android commits have been finalized. Any chance of a new build, and praying to whatever deities we believe in that it actually works this time?

I just asked about that annoying popup for starting the game and for where to start the game from, that it asks you every time you start sonic mania. apparently, it's a restriction by android itself rather than the app. one of the devs told me it's not possible to do (i.e. save your answers) or they would've fixed that problem. not a big problem, but it is slightly annoying.

Sega should release it officially so customers could support Sonic Mania even more.

Why Sega decided to leave Sonic Mania as a one-off I'll never know 'cause we could've had amazing sequels. Imagine "Sonic Mania 2" and "Sonic Mania 3" oh yeah!

Strange never had that happen in any other game or app so very weird it happens every time with Mania

Yep that's what I mean. Just sounds like a bullshit excuse by them to blame Android when it doesn't happen on pretty much every other android app ever.
I get your point, but you can't judge how a specific App behaves taking into consideration how "many others" do.

You can at any time, modify the Sonic Mania App yourself and make it work as you'd like it to, that's the reason the devs made the decompilation source code openly available.

Instead of complaining you should be thanking them for their hard work... Thank you Devs!

I just realized that the person answering me may not have been one of the devs, but just some random person. I closed the issue myself before I realized that. It may be fixed on a later version.

It's not designed for that afaik. The only thing different are debug symbols to help with diagnosing bugs.

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.

    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
