Drunk and Roll - another bizarre and crazy game from indie developer “My name is Originality”. This time is mix of tilt & roll genre as well as endless racing game… 
When your wife is calling, you need to hurry up, but it’s really hard, when it’s Friday’s evening. So simply tilt a device to roll the hero getting him back to home. Avoid drinks like beer & whiskey (especially !), watch out on holes of street duct, and collect energy drinks to improve your stamina. Remember to keep on the track and always be on your way to your longing wife…what means to do not fall into the river and do not invade the busy street. So be carefull and skilfull! And in real life - never drive after drinking alcohol!!!
 
Feature bullets:
 
• Funny, crazy tilt & roll game 
• Endless racing mode
• Facebook Edition (you can challenge your friends and beat the records!)
• Soon will be available a global group on official ‘Drunk and Roll’ site:
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/DrunkAndRollCommunity" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/DrunkAndRollCommunity</a>
to challenge people from all around the world! So join us today!
• Google Play In-App purchase to remove ads from the game. If you would like to support me and see more crazy games, please do not hesitate, it’s only 1 buck!
 
Best,
 
My name is Originality

cheers & have a nice Friday's evening!

Kongrats downloading game now

hgvyas123 · July 2013

by the way it crashes all the time in my xolo q700 [yup i had taken new device] with android 4.2 just after signing in facebook.

fxone · July 2013

@hgvyas123 would you connect your device to pc under Eclipse and send me logcat report from crash? I appreciate that. I don't have yet any reports/alerts about crashing on facebook developer site. And also what is the version of facebook app? Mine is 3.2.1

fxone · July 2013

@ar2rsawseen @Atilim could you guys check this out the report from Google Play? Some guy ( @hgvyas123 ?) sent me today 2 reports with comment: "crash can't do anything just after giving permission of Facebook"

Tested on Facebook 3.2.1 on both architecture armv6 (t-mobile move) and armv7 (samsung tab 10.1) without problems, so this is really strange. Gideros SDK 2012.09.10
thank you!

atilim · July 2013

@fxone oh. we'll look into it.

atilim · July 2013

it seems there is an incompatability between facebook and google billing in some specific situation. we can provide a solution today.

fxone · July 2013

we can provide a solution today.

@Atilim it would be great! Thank you!

atilim · July 2013

Can you update BillingService.java line: 434 function onStart with:

<a href="http://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Override" rel="nofollow">@Override</a>
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
    if (intent != null)
        handleCommand(intent, startId);
}

Currently we cannot crash you game on our devices (with Android 4.2) therefore we cannot test if this fix solves the problem. But most probably it should.

(Btw, your game posts to my facebook wall so frequently. You may consider asking for a permission or post less frequently)

phongtt · July 2013

Kongoratz man!

fxone · July 2013

@Atilim thanks a lot for your feedback about frequency of posts to Facebook timeline, I've just fixed it - will be alertDialog with question for a permission ..

BUT unfortunately I have confirmation from person, who can crash my app, that solution, which you have provided for BillingService.java, is not working. Still is the same...

Do you have any additional idea for today?

ar2rsawseen · July 2013

@fxone then it is probably another crash, what you provided log for seems to be a bug in GoogleBilling and almost all solutions are:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/6762467/2274511

Edited: other solution might be this:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/13021780/2274511

removing onStart and adding this instead:

<a href="http://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Override" rel="nofollow">@Override</a>
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
   handleCommand(intent, startId);
   return START_NOT_STICKY;
}

fxone · July 2013

@ar2rsawseen thanks but it seems that this method onStart etc is deprecated since api level 5: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Service.html#onStart(android.content.Intent, int)
BUT at your link is another solution based on new method:

    <a href="http://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Override" rel="nofollow">@Override</a>
    public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
       handleCommand(intent, startId);
       return START_NOT_STICKY;
    }

I can't test it now. Person, who can crash my game, is unavailable: Saturday's night

fxone · July 2013

removing onStart and adding this instead:

<a href="http://forum.giderosmobile.com/profile/Override" rel="nofollow">@Override</a>
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
   handleCommand(intent, startId);
   return START_NOT_STICKY;
}

@ar2rsawseen I've just received info that is the same, well I need to back to this during the regular week!
@Atilim I've just sent update 1.01 to google play to do not annoy people by sending too frequent posts to timeline..
for now thanks for a help!

ar2rsawseen · July 2013

@fxone what someone is not at his computer playing games or coding in Saturday's evenings? :-O

)

fxone · July 2013

@ar2rsawseen yeah it was bizarre idea to publish game at Friday..

ar2rsawseen · July 2013

@fxone but percent of crashes should be small, because not me nor @atilim could reproduce it on different devices.

@fxone but percent of crashes should be small, because not me nor @atilim could reproduce it on different devices.

i get this all the time is there any chance bcoz i had already install facebook app and that is conflicting with facebook sdk in game unfortunately i can not unistall facebook app from my device

hgvyas123 · July 2013

actually i had heard this kind of issue may be in corona long time ago thats why i doubt it is the also happening here

fxone · July 2013

@hgvyas123 you should uninstall game from your profile on Facebook site with all contents(!) and next time, when you will install the game, do not give any permission to my game for Facebook, then should be everything all right. I need to update description with this solution...
btw Next known device with such issue is Samsung Galaxy S2

hgvyas123 · July 2013

in order to stop crash in my device i am disabling internet connection

deleting from facebook is very good idea

fxone · July 2013

@hgvyas123 would you mind testing my new version of apk with some solution to solve this Facebook problem?
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/fxtne53nysyongb/7F0GDq4w29
thank you in advance!
ps I also sent you private message on forum about the same

hgvyas123 · July 2013

@fxone :- same as b4 it gives crash

fxone · July 2013

@hgvyas123 thanks for try, I've added also

 public void handleCommand(Intent intent, int startId) {
        if (intent != null)
        {

to BillingService.java, but as we see without expected effects..
@Atilim can we expect Google Billing plugin with support to v3 version of Google IAP soon? I think, that it was noticed by some person from this thread:http://giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/comment/16612
it was problem with the similar crash report, it's been edited, but now it is cached by Google and can be seen after searching, see attachment.

fxone · July 2013

@fxone then it is probably another crash

yeah it seems, that was my fault at a part of facebook lua section. Tested on Samsung Galaxy S2 (I9100), which was one of two devices with noticed problems after logging to Fb. Version 1.03 of my game solves this problem, I hope. Why I and you ( @Atilim and @Ar2rsawseen) couldn't confirm this bug on our devices, still I don't understand

Never mind, thank you for your help!

hgvyas123 · July 2013

yeah it seems, that was my fault at a part of facebook lua section.
-------> that's the good news

fxone · July 2013

I've just received a message that my "Drunk and Roll" is approved by Facebook and "may show up" at App Center.
@ar2rsawseen thank you very much for android version of fb plugin and help during implementation! I owe you big beer

"trwa" in Polish means "live"

ar2rsawseen · July 2013

@fxone wow thats huge
Congratulations
