[UPDATED 2017] Simple way to export andorid apk (scoll down to bottom section)

Overview

This is the Simple way to export andorid apk (from what I been tested with TyranoBuilder so far)

Preparation


This is the Simple way to export andorid apk (from what I been tested with TyranoBuilder so far)

few things you need to setup before we start.

1) you need a intel XDK software and register as a XDK member (FREE)

2) (optional) a amazon developer account (FREE) as I will use amazon as platform to put my exported apk file on amazon store.

HOW ITS WORKS

I am test some game development with Construct 2 in the past. And the way construct 2 export to apk are very similiar to Tyrano Builder. (Hint. if you are a Construct game developer, you know how to do it already )

So, let get start!

you need to create few size of Icon and few screen shot of your game. I will talk about this later.

To make it way more simple, pls follow what I suggest 1st, you can do your own later in your way.(such as where to put the directory: A.K.A file path)

so your already have the android export files from TyranoBuilder.

copy that folder to C:export apk
(* you need to create a folder named: export apk)

copy your export file from Tyrano Builder

now you need to put few png picture file in to the same place. Icon file with dimention 96×96 and a game screenshot of 800×480 (as shown on the screenshot above, you can put more orther dimention png file you like, but in this guide, I just use one icon size and one game screen shoot as a simple guide)

until now, you are almost 50% done.

Next section are on the intel XDK
