Hi,
So i released two Android games on Google Play Store some time ago, let's call them Game 1 and Game 2. These two have different descriptions and names, they are completely different games. The only thing that they have in common is that they are publlished on the same Google Developer account.
Today i tried to share one of these games to a friend on Facebook by copying the Google Play Stores link of one of the games. The problem is that the descrption underneath the image when shared has been "meshed up". The first part of the descrption shared on Facebook comes from the correct game, Game 1. But then after some lines parts of the description from Game 2 is added aswell.
Why is that and is there some sort of fix to this? Kinda annoying to be honest..
Hopefully this is the correct section of the forum to post this question in.

Good Day,
I was browsing through the play store apps. I randomly came across a few apps that looked very similar, but each had a different name as a developer. I am not sure but can someone answer me the following questions:
1) Is it possible for someone to post multiple versions of the app with slight differences under completely different developer accounts?
2) Does Google Play Store allow multiple developer accounts to be made or is it against rules/policy?
3) Why would people do that in the first place?
Thank you in advance for the responses.
I recently came to know about this "Google Cloud Save" feature where the game progress is saved online and gets synced to other devices or if you format your phone.
But, I have trouble finding the games which support this feature.
How do I look for games that support this feature?

Androidpolice.com generated this list of games in may last year which supported this feature.
There must be some way of knowing it without contacting the developer.

The Androidpolice list is for apps supporting Play Games, but Saved Games is only a section inside that, like leaderboards, achievements, friends, etc. There's no way to see which games support Google Saved Games until you try them. I've made a little list here:

I try to upload my apps to Play Store. First attempt is a jumping game. Got suspended with a message such as 'copyright/trademark//impersonation such a things'. I look around reading references, turn out it is popular issues at this moment.
Ok, then I write some simple application using Sencha which read some data(JSON) and show list of text. Just like a notes. Decorate my own icons using Lunapic webapp and cooltexts. Name my apps as MantapNya. No apps using that name in Play Store. And no such thing as trademark related to that name. Publish it on Play Store, again quickly I get the same suspended result and with a message such as 'copyright/trademark//impersonation such a things. Huh??? no clue what is happening?
What is going on with Play Store these days? I already get app suspended twice. Afraid to publish apps now. The third suspended I believe equal to termination.
This articles seem good references: http://www.xda-developers.com/google-play-store-policies-and-common-mistakes-to-avoid/
Did follow it, still no clue why. Google become evil now? Is it?
I wonder, if I do not use Play Store and publish it elsewhere such as Amazon Store, Samsung Store etc . Can I still use Admob on it? Admod use Google Play Services now, not sure can or not?
Btw, I get to study some other alternatives. This is what I get so far.

Hi everbody,
I released my first game on Android recently, but I have no idea how Google Play organises its search results.
The game is called 'Get to Zero' by Will Wu and it doesn't show up as the first result when you type it in Google Play search.
Like wth? I've read up on it and it seems that Google Play also includes the app description as part of the search. That's not really fair is it considering the thing I'm searching for perfectly matches the title of the app.
The only way to search for my game seems to be adding my name at the end of the search i.e. 'get to zero will wu'. I imagine what could be the case is the name of my game includes very common words 'get' and 'to' which Google Play might filter as part of the search .
So I'd like to ask, how does one increase ASO for something like this?
Any help is much appreciated!
I also have a thread on XDA for the game here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/game-to-zero-youve-played-puzzle-game-t3108522 if you want to give feedback
Hello everyone
Firstly, I would like to say that xda-developers.com has helped me in a lot of problems I had in the past. The members are really helpful here and the discussions that have been done here are clear and understandable.
Coming to my problem, I have the latest BlueStacks v2.5.97 and use it to play games and some social apps.
I have an app called Topps KICK which is a card trading game. I was playing this game on KOPlayer(which is another Android Emulator), but since the latest update of the game I am not able to play the game on KOPlayer, with an error "Cyclic Dependancy not allowed". This happened with most of the popular Emulators like NOX, MEmu.
When I tried to play it on BlueStacks it worked. But I have another 2 accounts of the game which I had on my spare iphones, I now want to transfer those accounts on the Bluestacks Emulator. But the game allows only 1 account per device.
If someone can help me out with this, I would really appreciate it.

If i get your message right:
Use "parallel space" android app to clone it in the same phone (emulator), this way you will have 2 accounts (apps) at the same time, i don't know if you can clone it again but you can give it a try.

Thanks for the reply!
I have already tried it, but it says that the device is being used by *my username*
If there was some way I could fake the Device Identity or something like that, so that the app recognizes it as a New Device.
