I've tried and gotten the game to play in the appmobi emulator in the xdk on my pc, but when I test the game over wifi on a new ipad, all I get is a black screen. I've tried with directcanvas on and off, and I tried a second game as well. The way I tried it was as described via the tutorial on scirra.com, downloading the source, exporting to appmobi and testing it that way.

Also, I've seen the 'appmobi links' that looks like I could skip the step of downloading the source and exporting, but I'm not sure how to use them.

Hi Dylan,

Please try and add a rotation sprite every tick, check the template.

I checked and the game I ran (Bright idea: http://www.c2linkit.com/game/6) already has this from the template, and doesn't have any code to delete the updater sprite anywhere. Any other reasons it might not be working?

Hi,

Are you using "test local" or "test anywhere"? I have never been able to get test local to work, but test anywhere always does.

I've been using test local - I'll give test anywhere a shot.

That worked. Thanks for the help, both of you!
