PotentialProblem , to retrogaming in RA Tracker - RetroAchievements companion app for iOS

Awesome! I just discovered retroachievements for my newly created counter top arcade machine!

I’ve just bought a SteamDeck and planned on using it to revisit some older games that I loved. I’d never heard of RA until now, so this is new to me. But I’ve downloaded it and checked EmuDeck for compatibility. I’ll definitely be getting some good use out of this app. Thank you!

ioslife OP ,

Nice! That’s similar to how I found RA. Found it after I started playing on my MiyooMini+ and then started working on the app

Just downloaded the app to give it a shot and I like how easy it is to browse the available games in the RA library and points for supporting dark mode. A few things I would like to see to use the app more would be

  • The ability to search the entire library for something like Pokémon for example and see all games for all consoles instead of selecting a console and then searching each one for Pokémon.
  • It would be nice to be able to see what achievements I’ve already unlocked when checking my progress for a game
  • I like seeing the extra stats on an achievement when selecting it, but it would be better if we could see the achievement description without having to select each achievement individually. I think the browsing has a lot of potential, but just needs some tweaks to keep me from looking through games on RA itself!
  • I’m not able to see the achievements in the games I’ve mastered by clicking on the award and they don’t show up in the progress section so it their was a way to easily look at the ones I’ve completed that would be nice too.

Overall, I think this is a great start and I’m excited to see where this goes

ioslife OP ,

Thanks for the feedback, it’s great!

  1. This is something I have looked into. The calls weren’t incredibly efficient, so I didn’t include it in the release version. I’ll do some more looking into it, because I agree that it would be helpful.
  2. Totally. This is something that I’ll be able to include once the full RA API is turned back on. Expect it soon.
  3. You’re talking about on the game detail page? Good call. I’ll see what I can do.
  4. That’s not a use case I considered. I can definitely add that. Do you like the little pop up that happens when you tap your award or would you prefer to see the entire list of achievements and game details?
Orbiht ,

For the fourth response I do really like the notification in the little “trophy case” section for the awards! Though the master date has been showing “invalid date” for me and all users I’ve looked at so far just to give you a heads up!

I would say if I was able to go to the page for that game with the achievements list directly from the award that would be nice. Kind of like how it works on RA. Not sure how that would work with the notification though, but just a thought

ioslife OP ,

Ah. Thanks for telling me about invalid date. I have a fix for that already. Update will be out soon. Thanks a ton!

I’ll throw together a couple different ways and see what works best.

Orbiht ,

Great! Looking forward to it!

ioslife OP ,

Version 1.1.0 was just approved and will be rolling out shortly! It addresses all of your ideas above, except for game search. I’ll be looking into that this week.

Orbiht ,

Wow, that’s awesome! Again, thanks so much for listening to feedback. I’m excited to see how the changes are. I’ll give more feedback if I have any!

ioslife OP ,

Thanks for helping make the app better!

Looking forward to your thoughts on the update.

Looks like an endpoint that will enable both of these features has been turned on. Working on the feature now!

Orbiht ,

Glad to hear it! I’ll be on the lookout for updates! Thanks for listening!

I think this looks really good actually. Thanks for the idea!

Orbiht ,

That’s much easier to browse the lists!

Apparently they are fully aware of the south park episode. Back in 2008 they announced they were making it as an april fools

HawlSera , to gaming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure released on Apple Arcade

This had to be intentional

dudewitbow , to gaming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure released on Apple Arcade

I unironically want to play this, no apple device though =X

gonta , to gaming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure released on Apple Arcade

Okay, I’m OOTL. Are the other comments being serious or just sarcastic? Why does this game garner so much hype?

Because it was made up by South Park in the World of Warcraft episode. I think people love that they actually went and made it.

shon ,

It’s also an Animal Crossing competitor that looked pretty good from the one trailer I saw. So people into animal crossing/Stardew valley type games are excited.

I want this to get ported to PC so bad.

In the first few minutes of gameplay they make a Snakes on a Plane reference, because of course.

dandroid , to gaming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure released on Apple Arcade

Butters was right. It’s way better than stupid World of Warcraft.

mojo , to gaming in Hello Kitty Island Adventure released on Apple Arcade

Can’t wait for the competitive eSport scene around this hype as fuck game Don’t even need to download to know it’s GOTY. Sorry TOTK, you’ve been dethroned.

Dekthro , to technology in Threads: Which of the “Data Linked to You” is Actually Required

Yeah this is insanely invasive. Also just say by Meta. Meta owns Instagram.

maxprime ,

I could be mistaken but I think threads might use your Instagram account. Which can be connected to Facebook but not necessarily. So I think they’re marketing it as such.
