Turn your Inform 7 game into an Android app

github.com/SimonChris/AndroidIF

With Jimmy Maher’s permission, I’m open-sourcing the Android code currently used by “The King of Shreds and Patches”, “Death off the Cuff” and “PataNoir”. This requires some basic Android development skill to use, but not much more than the iOS skills needed for Zarf’s iOS frameworks.

The framework supports both in-line pictures, background textures and music. I’ve included a simple demo game, to demonstrate how everything works.

SPLENDID!

HUZZAH!

An excellent project that I hope will do much to advance the Android IF landscape, which is woefully underdeveloped compared to iOS.

Making an app is one skill set, marketing them is another.
