Forgot to mention, either my fingers adapted a bit or choosing the dialogue appeared to be a bit more precise. Not sure which, I do know that there were no issues in choosing my dialogue choices at all this time.
Another test complete for the Nexus 7 2013! Man was it awesome seeing everything and hearing the voices. So much started coming back to me... Haven't played this game in over 15 years!
@Dee one thing I noticed was that it was rather difficult to select the donation text field at Ohgma's temple in order to enter a Numeric quantity. I had to be extremely precise when i touched it. Other than that everything ran smoothly. Though I'm thinking I should test further sections, just to be sure.
Just finished the test on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and it ran great, I love the interface. 2 things though, and I'm sorry if these were already answered-
1) I got the completion message. Am I done? I didn't see a way on Testflight to report my success. Not sure if that happens automatically or what.
2) I was running through the test at work and my boss's wife walked in the room, and I had to turn off the screen in the middle of the test. When I tried to turn the screen back on and swiped the screen to go back to what I was doing, the screen just froze and then went black. I couldn't get back to the game or to my home screen, and had to reboot the phone. Perhaps this is normal for the Beta but I thought it was worth mentioning.
Other than that, the game runs smooth and the graphics look great. It works great with the stylus also. Can't wait until the next round of testing!
Complete! Old Nexus 7 and HTC One (had to try)... Went really well, pretty smooth!
Maybe something to consider - while scrolling in the area it is very precise requiring a lot of swipes to go where you would like. Maybe the swipe could be "softer" or more "springy" allowing for some extra travel between swipes.
Also, it would be nice to have more line space between choices in dialogue.
OK I finished my first run through of the beta and I am impressed and excited! 2012 Nexus 7 experienced no slow downs and everything was very fluid and natural. I think it will be the best BG interface by far. Kinda like how the Wii controls made RE4 into that much more of an awesome game and I never played it on anything but the Wii after. My only real criticism, and it may not be enabled, but on the inventory screen, how do I examine an item so I can read it's description?
Really nice work guys. Looks and sounds great. I had no drop in frame rate as originally mentioned. I'll go back in to look for the "white line" as described above (and respond via email).
Work awesome for me... Can't wait till you'll take my money.... does anyone know if one can use windows save files with android version and vice versa?
Note 2 I605 and Note 10.1 (2014) P600 both completed test and we're smooth and beautiful. Note 2 experienced same white graphical anomalies mentioned earlier. I am so psyched for this...to all the naysayers, this game is close. Rock on!
Have run all recent builds on both the nexus 5 and nexus 7 2013. Each time has been smooth, but the only problem I've run into is I keep getting drawn back to the days when I first played Baldur's Gate, and though the beta ends with Gorion's death, I find myself stuck in the late 90's for a good hour afterward. Probably not much you can do with the code to address this though.

The save files will be the same, but to get to the save folder (at lest where it is currently,"/data/data/com.beamdog.bgee/files/save") you will need a rooted android device.
Had no problems running the last few builds except for once, I tapped "New Game" and got an out of bounds message! Strange... Worked fine afterwards though.
After running the beta just to complete the test I played around a bit a few times...fights, menu screens, etc. I am really impressed with the way this has turned out so far. And the Note 10.1 just seems tailor made to play this game, with the stylus or without. Pretty fricking excited...hopefully testing and release will be a matter of a few weeks, rather than a few more months.
Ran through again with new build on my Nexus 10 and for the first time with a Moto X. Moto X worked great, and was smooth, but screen size would be rough to deal with for 40+ hrs of game play.
N10 still has noticeable lag when zoomed out all the way.
"Reply above line to send feedback to developer" Not sure exactly what that means. I hit reply, and sent my results to an email address that was a long random string of characters. Hopefully that was correct.
Alright tested successful on my Nexus 7 and Samsung Galaxy s3. Both did very well although I think the screen would really be too small on the phone but can't wait to play on my Nexus!

Even just a couple minutes was still exciting!
