CIU version 153 Advance Preview

v.153 Advance Preview

The official release is very close now, and to (hopefully) catch any last-minute problems, I am providing advance preview builds of the stand-alone and Android versions of the game.

:warning: Before you install them, however, read through the following notes:

  • These are the final builds (exactly the same as will eventually become public), however until the new version is officially released, they will still connect to the BETA server. This means that any progress you make using these versions will eventually be lost.

  • Purchases will not work.

  • They will overwrite any existing previous version installation you have.

  • If you install them but then wish to go back to playing ‘officially’, you must re-install the previous version on top.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

A question that i already asked from the last year, but i think you’re too busy to care it: What will you do after you finish the whole adding DLC/Episode to CIU/Play Store/Apple Store phase?

The download failed message doesn’t go away and is present on all pages.
I think it would be better if this message was displayed for a few seconds and then deleted.

Uncertain yet. I need a rest. Fighting with Steam and Google has really worn me down.

Not immediately. Steam CIep1 must be released first. I will probably release a Steam update that makes it available within CIU.

Google rejected it because they don’t think I own the rights to the “Chicken Invaders” name :man_facepalming: And the stupidity goes on…

It will work once v.153 is officially released.

The font is the same, but the size might have changed slightly. Line spacing has definitely changed.

If Google rejected CI1 will it eventually be released, or will it not be released at all?

I have appealed with supporting documentation, but it’s going to take at least a week.

Are you planning to make a stand-alone version for each episode? Because my phone doesn’t seem to be able to download episodes from Google Play (even CIU, I’m just using the stand-alone version).

Sadly, no. Maintaining separate 32-bit and 64-bit builds would be a huge burden. You can still play the Episodes as DLC within CIU.

Well, that’s unfortunate but understandable.

Isn’t there a way to make it work for all devices, I mean weak phones?

Good afternoon, @InterAction_studios. I got an error message stating that versions newer than 152 are not allowed for the DLC Episodes. Is this supposed to be a typo?

It will work once v.153 is officially released.

You really deserve this or maybe you should go on vacation away from development.

Then he would stop uploading GEN videos
