I was recently trying this out on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition), but the on-screen buttons are huge and the Apple screen is too small. Can the screen size and buttons be rebalanced to fit the larger screen? I think it must have something to do with the pixel density on the new tablets.

Yes, CA requires some rework on the display, probably due to the high density as you guessed.  :-)  I was just thinking this morning how I developed it on an HTC Magic and then added support for two (count 'em 2) new devices (the droid and nexus one).  CA needs some loving care from me.

Thanks for the reminder. :-)

I was reading the recent posts, and I saw that you were modernizing Candy Apple earlier this year. Did you ever finish the job?

Regards,

Yes, funny you should ask. I expect to be releasing ca 2.00 in the next week.   My kids play a lot of soccer so it's taken over 7 months to make some major changes to it.   I will still be adding game controller support in a future version and I'm dying to try chromecast if i get time.

I hope more buttons per screen or an authentic apple layout keyboard are on the list...

That is an idea for larger devices.   It won't be in this version as I'm just testing what I've got fine right now.

I just want to say thank you for this update. I still like to play the old SKG strategy games, as well as the SSI games.

If I can figure out why yours apparently didn't crash on install  but so many did.   ☺
Cheers.

Sorry. That should have been SSG, Strategic Studies Group.

I'll tell you. Mine didn't crash on install, but did crash when I ran it. Then I noticed that I had moved it to the SD card, so I moved it back to the device. I also cleared data, but I'm not sure if I needed to. The app runs fine now, but I have to re-enter my keyboard mappings.

Hope this helps.

Steve
