Thanks. It seems like the message you see might be due, while misleading, to the device hardware rather than it’s OS version. At least that’s what came up as one of the possible reasons after a web search.

One more reason to keep “outdated” games still on the list, as they might work for someone!

Says it’s made for an older version of android, and won’t let me download

That’s odd, but also it isn’t the first time someone tells me that a game is outdated while seeming to be fine on my end. May I ask what device and Android version you use?

Thanks for reporting this by the way!

Underhand seems to be outdated

What does it say? It looks good on my end, with Android 14.

Can I suggest Drill Down

Yes, I’ll add this as it’s also FOSS. Thank you!

If you have other suggestions, next time please also provide a link to the game. This one has been delisted fron the Play Store so I found it on itch.io

By cross-referencing Chat GPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and the OG Google search, I’ve added the 120 FPS indicator (as 120FPS) to the handful of titles that support it in my list of premium games. Took me a couple hours to go through the bullshit they were spitting out, but it beats checking 100+ games one by one lol

I’m not sure any of the titles in the list of FREE games support 120 FPS, but I’ll double check.

Keep in mind that, as I found out during the process, if a games doesn’t support 120 FPS now, doesn’t mean it never will. The 120 FPS support to some games has been added long after release.

It’s still time-consuming and hard work, because I’ll have to check on ALL games in the list. I can’t just do it with some, or it will be confusing. I will think about it.

In the meanwhile you can:

• check this list of 120fps games from June 2020: https://www.smartprix.com/bytes/best-android-games-higher-refresh-rate-phones-for-with-90hz-or-120hz-display-phones/

• try asking Chat GPT or Perplexity. They can make a list similar to mine and divided it into genre, however I’m not sure to what degree they’re reliable

No, sorry. It would be too hard to check on all games and it’d be too niche.

There’s a single transaction to remove ads. So on the Play Store it will show with “contains ads and in-app purchases”. It might be debatable, but I personally consider these type of games same as “premium paid”, because to have the full experience without ads you need to pay once.

I’ll fix it with better wording.

Thanks! Would this be helpful for cross-posting to that community? My goal is to have a post showing in these 2 communities, and when I update the original one in this instance, the update will automatically carry on to the community in the other instance.

I tried cross-posting using a function in the Summit app, but the updates don’t carry on… Do you know how I could achieve this?

They both always looked the same for me, but once I tried on Obsidian I could see the difference! I think it depends on what app the formatting is displayed on. Thanks, I’m gonna fix all headers

First of all, thanks for your observations and suggestions. I love to be precise with my posts and learning more about markdown formatting.

Headers require a space after the number signs

A question about this: does it change the way it actually looks? I’ll fix it, but I’d love to know if there’s a practical difference in using space vs no space?

I think “Introduction” and “Entry Criteria” should both be headers as well

You’re probably right, as general rules go, but the reason why headers in my list are formatted this way is because I wanted to draw attention to the actual list and genres, rather than to the introduction/criteria. As I’m expecting most users to browse this list when they want to checkout some games.

Each of your genre headers should get three number signs, since those are all headers that fall within the “THE LIST” section

I’ve actually tried that recently, but didn’t like the way it looked. I think something was off with the spacing between genre headers and first line when using three hashtags. Might give it another try soon.*

*fixed the genre headers with three hashtagas

That is great! I should probably start adding FOSS games from F-droid.

Hi everyone!

I’m moving my two lists of games from Reddit to Lemmy, as I’m planning to jump platform and totally abandon Reddit in the future. The reason is well, Lemmy is better, and Reddit’s admin have suspended or shadowbanned my account without reason, deleting all my contributions to the community (Android Gaming) there.

Most notably my two lists of games which I’ve curated for over 4 years: “100% free games” and “Favorite PAID games”.

Lemmy’s still young and, unfortunately, there isn’t a relevant or active Android gaming community yet, so I’m uploading here hoping I’m not doing anything wrong!

I’ll probably cross-post the two lists on !android@lemmy.world too.

I’m very new to Lemmy so ANY feedback is appreciated. Thank you!
