A Halloween special - early alpha version for Android

Posted
  • Administrator

A port of ClassiCube for Android is now available - with some limitations however:

  1. It's only available as an .apk download (Not available in the Google Play Store)
  2. The .apk was compiled in debug mode, so it will be slower than normal
  3. It's early alpha. It will very likely crash, freeze, perform poorly, etc.
    Please report these to me so I can work on fixing them.

(Also note that the in-game UI of the Android version is almost exactly the same as the UI when you use the web client on android)

Sounds Cool man, I dunno how that Phone stuff works but do Samsung Phones use the android OS and if so would that work on them?
 

Also Happy Halloween

Yes, and yes.

Thank you for making this possible Unk, I've noticed your efforts in making the Android build playable recently on the irc.

I really wished I could play CC on my phone back in 2017-18, and now we have an actual official client. Even though I mostly use an iPhone now, this is still an achievement, so congratulations and thanks once again. <3

How very very frightening. I'll check it out as soon as i can!
I only have one question though, does this have the same limitations as the web client, where you can only join certain servers?

I updated the .apk with a potential fix for this issue. Can you please try redownloading then reinstalling the .apk and see if that fixes your issue

I tried downloading the client on my samsung galaxy s7 and it wouldn't install the app. I would get the error "App not installed" which usually means the app doesn't support the device.

Did you see any messages about the apk being unsafe or untrusted? The apk is signed with a debug key, so it will likely by blocked by default, which would cause an 'app not installed' error.

It should work on any device running android 4.0 or later. I tested on a device running 4.0.3 and it installed and ran fine there

oh make sure you have unknown sources enabled in settings, that sometimes fixes it

and thank you for the update unk, very helpful because now i can move across the screen

It doesn't give me any messages about the apk being unsafe. Although if it is getting blocked, how do i unblock it. 

edit: the reason I was getting the error was because I didn't have any storage left on the device.
