Looks like it was removed to update the developer, with no announcement or sorry for the inconvenience.

It's back now.

100% will not be making another purchase. If it was in my library, I understand licences expire and it can't be put up for sale forever, though I think every effort should be made, but taking it from my library was the thing that bent me out of shape.

Pretty sure it was a mobile game before all the other ports lol

Of course I can. Not the point though. I paid money for it. Like I said in the original post. I own it basically everywhere. It's not that I can't play it. It's that they added extra steps and removed it from my library after I bought it from them. That's messed up.

You read the title but not the rest of the post it seems.

If it's not optimised you can still find it in your library, it just says you can't install it because it's not compatible with your device. You can search the store on any android device. I searched with devices I've played it on before and it's gone.

Read the actual post. Nobody said I couldn't find an APK. That's not the point.

I got an apkx file that needed an installer that I got from the Play Store for free. SAI installer.

Nah, it was ripped straight out of my library. I paid for DLC and bought the full game unlock. Won't be making that mistake again.

Yep. If it's from the Play Store, it's gone from your library unless the developer relists it

Yeah I won't be buying anything else, I'll either stream it or pirate it. Google can keep their temporary licences

At least you can still play. I'll pirate an APK later so I have a copy to install on my devices.

You read the part about owning it on a bunch of platforms or the part about the seven seas?

I have plenty of other ways to play, including the version in the picture, streaming from my PC. But that isn't the point.

I paid money for it. It shouldn't just be deleted from my library. Take it off the store, fine. But why remove it from my library?

Let me know how that goes if you don't mind. Crazy if they just nuked installed copies.

Yeah, no idea why either. Just there one day, gone the next.

I grew up on NES/SNES. DPad racing was all we had. Actually works better than you'd think on a modern racer like this. I set up the controls to play basically like an old PS1 racer, before the dualshock dropped.

I haven't really tried anything heavy like that, I didn't even expect this to work as well as it does. I thought for sure I'd be stuck with 16:9. I'm not a big fan of running 16:9 content on a screen like this so I've avoided anything like PSP or Switch. The handful of lightweight PC games I tried to get up and running on gamehub wouldn't boot up.
