He asked how much power/battery was needed to play the game, and what version on Android is required.
I'm not sure how much, but common sense estimates not nearly as much as the 3D racer games, but a lot more than one would like to
Once i make some more progress i might be able to say something useful about the battery usage of Hedgewars on Android.. As for the version it's *probably* gonna be 1.6 (Donut) however i might up it to Eclair I'm not sure yet
and thanks for the comments

Hi, thanks for your answer.
what i meant was Power=CPU=RAM
And if multitouch is needed for playing this game.
Android version 1.6 ? or 2.X ??
But Batteriepower is also very important to play this awesome game quite long.
Thanks again

Ah sorry i misunderstood, my German is only so so
I can't tell you much about the minimum CPU/RAM/GPU because i haven't had the chance to test it on a variety of devices, though anything older than one/ one and a half year(s) ago will probably be struggling to render the game well
As for multitouch, the bare minimum to use multitouch is 2.1 (Eclair) however to detect whether a phone has multitouch I need 2.2 (Froyo) so for multitouch to work I'll need either one of them, probably 2.1
More detailed info regarding the minimum requirements for the different features should be available once I've sent out some beta versions

Beta versions? Where do I sign up?
I have a HTC Desire running a miui.us ROM with Android 2.3.4. I also have an Archos 7 Home Tablet v2 running a custom ROM with Android 2.1.

I'm uploading another video which also has a bit of music playing in the background, but for the next videos I'll make sure I will pause my music before i start to film :P
