One thing people have wanted for some time now is to be able to send Google Play credit to other people. Well today we sort of have that ability now as Google will now let people send credit as a gift through email. Before everyone gets crazy and starts sending Google Play credit all over the place, this is only for US residents right now.

Today’s DroidGamers Deal is our second Pay What You Want type of bundles, this time for a bundle to teach you coding for a variety of different platforms, all based around web coding though. Just like our first bundle, this one also helps support Project HOPE, with part of the proceeds from each sale going to this charity.
Android developers will have a new option for their applications and games starting next year that will add an official ‘Ads’ tag to their products on Google Play. This was originally announced back during Google I/O where games and apps in the Designed for Families program have had an “Ad-Supported” tag in their listings. Now Google is ready to expand this to all Google Play games and applications.
Today’s DroidGamers Double Daily Deal features a pretty awesome Android development bundle that is in the style of “Pay What You Want”. This is pretty much as it sounds like as you will be choosing the price you want to pay, and part of the proceeds go to charity as well.

There is a new strain of malware that has shown up for Android devices that is apparently ‘virtually impossible’ to remove, at least for right now.
Yesterday’s DroidGamers Daily Deal was all about learning to develop for Android through examples, having built 10 full functioning real world applications by the time you’re done the entire course. When you strike out on your own after that, you’ll have a better idea on how to code applications for Android. While coding is an important aspect to building an application (or game for that matter), design is also equally as important.

Crescent Moon Games has quietly released a game onto Google Play called Ad Cube… or is it a game? What we know it isn’t, and that is it isn’t an Ad blocker or Ad removal software. Hell it isn’t even a game really. So what is it? Well it appears to be a test regarding ads with something very good being promised at the end.
