Aquaria for Android available on HIB

[Khael]

Hello everyone.
I recently got my copy of the game on Humble Bundle and now I have the following problem:
I play on Asus Padfone (1GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 1.5GHz dual-core, 32GB internal + 32GB SD, Android 4.1.1). When I play the game in phone mode(resolution is 960x540) the game runs fine, but when I try to start it in tablet mode(resolution is 1280x800) I can see intro, but both menu and game are black, I can see the UI though. I tried to reboot, but it doesn't help.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?

That sounds like a device issue. I'll try to find such a device to test with, but see if there are any graphics settings you can change, particularly "high quality" or "fast rendering" or similar options -- there may be an ASUS-specific driver or something that's interfering with the game.

Belatedly, this reminds me of an Android bug I've seen on some devices in which the thumbnail in the Recent Apps list only shows the UI and not the game screen. Out of curiosity, if you open the world map can you see the game screen underneath it?

Thank you for your replies. I looked through system settings and found the solution - in "Developer options" I enabled "Disable HW overlays"(Always use GPU for screen composing) option. Now the game looks normal in both modes(tablet and phone).

The game screen is visible under the world map in both cases(With "disable HW overlays" and without it). And the game is shown correctly in thumbnail.
