Hi,

I just began working on an android/ios game.

Im working on the controls for the player.
but im afraid that the controls is to hard to control on an smartphone, so I would like to ask you to test my controls and give me feedback about the difficulty of it.

Here is the apk file for android:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5394772/control_test.apk

I have made 2 control options. The difference of them is that with the first controls you can turn the players top part:

Controls 1:
left joystick sides = turn player
left joystick updown = move player

right joystick sides = turn player top part
right joystick updown = control aim

Controls 2:
left joystick sides = turn player
left joystick updown = move player

right joystick updown = control aim

And here is an screen showing the current state of the game:

I hope im not asking for too much, but I really need the help.

Thanks,

Cannot try it but sounds like the game doesn’t belong to touch devices. Although you can adjust it by putting the camera higher for a more top-down view.

If you have thoughts that the controls might be too hard - they are.

Controls 2 are certainly easier to master. It ran smoother than anticipated, actually.

For me controls 2 are more easy, but maybe its better total control of the crosshair with the second joystick and control the mecha with the first.

Keep it up .
Tested con LG Optimus 2x with 4.3 Cyanogenmod

Hi,

yea, you’re right, but I wanted other people to test it out and tell me what they think and maybe give me som ideas for other controls.

@xKroniK13x and KirbyRawr:
Thanks for testing it and giving me feedback!

Keep the feedback coming! if you have any ideas for other controls, then I would be very happy to hear them :slight_smile:
I need a few more testers before I make an final decision.

Thanks
