Android Lives
Quite for a bit again? Well, just getting the Android version up and running!
As hoped the initial steps to get something functional were pretty straightforward. Being based on Unreal with very little platform specific technology Matchoo was running on Android and looking okay within a week.
But it's the details that get you. Matchoo needs Camera, photo library access and keyboard support and while Unreal Engine is excellent at getting a spaceship flying around asteroids its not aimed at more boring interactions. It's taken a while but the Android version is now pretty much complete.
The iOS version has been feature complete for a month now, so with the Android now in this place we're a) just fixing bugs and b) poised to go into proper beta testing on both platforms.
