Android version now included!
2018-10-04Believe it or not, Dynamite Alex was ported to Android devices in 2014. This is thanks to the help of Zachary Wiebe and NovaWare, who were much more knowledgable on porting to smartphones than I ever was. However, distribution of the APK was fairly limited. There were only so many that even knew it existed, and it disappeared from Google Play along with some other games I've put up there for reasons unknown.

So, I decided to throw it into this Steam release as the newest update for the game! Clicking Play on Steam will boot up the regular PC version, but if you go to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Dynamite Alex" on your computer, you will now be able to see a Dynamite Alex folder instead of just an .exe for the PC game. Included in the folder is the .exe, but also an .apk you can put directly on your Android-based phone or tablet. This, of course, will allow you to play the game right on your device. There are certain differences you'll be able to spot in this version of the game. For instance, there is now a world select; you can pick any of the game's seven worlds that you've been able to reach. Each of the game's fourteen levels is also separated into two parts, and going to the next part fully heals you. The roll has also been mapped to its own button, so you don't have to worry about accidental rolls on the touch screen. In fact, sliding your thumb up after jumping can make for some good mid-air roll maneuvers! This update is a free bonus for anyone that already owns the game, and if you play games on your phone, you may find this to be of intrigue~
