Coding for Dollars.

You still have 13 hours in the Port-a-Thon!

It's like free money! Right now they owe me $300 and a PlayBook(This would be the second one they gave me so I'll eBay this one!)

BUMP So I ended up with 5 games to submit. If all of them are accepted, I'll get $500, another PlayBook, and a dev alpha.

That would bring my total this year to ~$1500 all thanks to b4a.

Thanks Erel!

Nice work

Latch,

Thanks for the heads up on BB10. I will give it a try. I believe I have the SDKs but will have to look. I assume that you had to download all that to get moving?

Thanks,
Ron

No, I wrote all my code with b4a and converted the apk to a bar with the online converter: https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/android/bpaa/

Of course, I write the apps in such a way they resize to all screen resolutions but you can hard code a version specifically for each device. I position all the views with fractions.

The signing process is kind of complicated but not impossible. Because of my first app, they gave me a playbook which I sideload my bar files on for testing, but this portathon that starts tomorrow, I should be able to get the Dev Apha(phone size BB10 app testing hardware for devs)
