Show HN: My first game, lite version, working on full version

Installed on Google Nexus 10. Tapping the "PLAY" button on the title screen results in the Unity splash screen flashing briefly, then the title screen reappearing.

I like the cloud that floats around on the title screen and the music isn't too bad, but the game doesn't actually play on my device.

Alright, I'll try to see if the Analytics picked anything up. I don't have a Nexus 10 to test on personally, but I'll see if it happens on another tablet I have access to :)

Thank you for letting me know!

Best I could get for crash debug messages:

I suppose you tried more than once, if so was the error the same?

Works alright on Samsung Galaxy Tab and a THL phone.

Tried a few times, with a similar error. I've never worked with Unity, so I don't know how to debug a problem inside Unity native code. I can't post all of the logcat data here, but this seems to be the most relevant:

The same thing happens on a Nexus 6.

Looking for feedback on the gameplay/style of the game, please.

Also any suggestions for making a 'Full version' more worth it to the end-user...

'Story' tweaks or suggestions too :)

Thank you in advance, Pipsqueake

Tools: Unity3D, Flash - More comfortable for me, especially cartoony graphics

The white text borders and the textures of the hearts them selves are very aliassed; have you tried using a higher resolution texture (all based on the screenshots in the play store, at work atm).

Couldn't get it to run on my Nexus 6. Whenever I press play it goes right back to the title screen.

Put some gameplay video somewhere.

I'll see about recording some gameplay tonight and uploading it to the Play Store :)

So it's a Candy Crush clone?

What's wrong with that? Candy Crush is a very fun game even if you don't spend a dime.
