Greetings group! My first post, so apologies if my questions are stupid/obvious/common.
I have a team just about ready to start development of a game, but I'm not sure what do do about Android versions. My original intention was to develop for 2.1 - we all have 2.1 phones (Desires and Galaxy S's), so it seemed like a good idea. Emulators are fine, but there's nothing quite like testing your game out on a real phone! However, if we start now, we'll be well into development by the time our phones have been updated to 2.2, so I was wondering how horrendous it would be to switch development over to 2.2 mid-project? As an aside; why, in general, are the games available for Android very simplistic compared to some of the more sophisticated iPhone titles available? Is it simply a matter of as yet unfulfilled potential, or is Android just not really terribly suited to gaming? (I can't imagine why this would be the case). And, finally, I'm desperate for a good read on the best approaches to Android client/server and web service development, and would be very grateful for any and all useful links....stuff about RESTful, JSON and web services in general that is specifically written with Android in mind. Thanks very much for reading, and for any useful information provided. Regards, James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
