Android games and mobile ads

Hi!

I’m new to mobile and Unity development, and I want to start a project of making mobile games for iOS and Andriod. I’m trying to figure out wich option would suit best my needs, and Unity is clearly a great one with the power and simplicity that it offers.

The thing is that I want to make money from this games by using ads.

I want to know if the implementation of these ads is posible in Unity, before choosing it to develop.

Some of those ads companies are these:

http://mmedia.com/resources/sdk-api/
http://www.airpush.com/android-developers/
http://www.starapplication.com/

I would appreciate if someone could confirm or deny this. I hope that this can be made, because I really want to develop in Unity.

Thank you in advance!

Unity has built-in support for iAd on iOS but nothing else. You can check if the SDK’s from the ad vendors you’re interested in have Unity plugins or you can get some plugins from third-party vendors, e.g. I use the AdMob and iAd plugins from http://prime31.com/ You can check the Unity Asset Store, too.

If you are looking solution only android then, i have my own plugin here.

I just wanted to check from my total ignorance if this was posible or not, it doesn’t matter if its via a plugin or my own implementation.

So to understand a little better, there is no problem integrating any ad api then?

And those plugins, are for specific ad APIs or they make the integration of any API easier?

Thank you for your answers!

Normally a plugin only helps for the specfic one it is designed for.

There is no problem integrating ads with unity although you need to code or buy a plugin as there no built in option.

For example, look in the Android section, you’ll see plugins for AdMob, MobClix, etc.

Hey

Bit of a shameless plug here but you can try InMobi ad network as well. They recently released their new Ad SDK 400 which has custom ad formats and built-in analytics too. Integration link here

Hit me up if you need any help with this!
