One more suggestion from me.

Many who are on the phone or tablet always are faced with extra long loading times and freezes when the device just cant take it, especially the large amount of pictures. I myself am on the tablet often and if I wasnt stubborn, I wouldnt even visit Lioden at that time, because just setting up my lionesses to hunt takes me more than 5 mins, let alone explore my 100 energy where battles pop up and lionesses.

However, in the past weeks the new layout was introduced to the site which was supposed to make the site more mobile friendly. But truth is.., it only made the layout less PC friendly. Everything is huge, and one needs to zoom out a lot to play comfortably on a PC to such an extent that I can barely read anything in favor of having important buttons visible. The placement of important buttons and maps is still wrong, one has to scroll a ton on both PC and tablet, no matter how much zoomed out you are.

One cannot make a site both PC and mobile friendly. One has to choose or both will feel uncomfortable.

It can be a pain. And it is.

In short:
Mobile and tablet devices just cant take Lioden's current design and constantly lag, freeze or the server times out because of the slow load. Exploring and taking care of lions is basically impossible and takes extra long even with the new layout. The new layout is also too big and the site organization is still off.

Solution:
Create a mobile-optimized version next to the current website, perhaps with the address of:
m.lioden.com
or something. Many other sites use this option and they have happy members.
Make the normal website optimized for PCs, so we can play comfortably, and make this new version compatible completely for mobiles/tablets.

What would the mobile-optimized site contain:
Basically it would be an extreme basic version of the game itself, not the entire site.
- Chatting, forum, everything on the side of the screen would be moved to a new page, away from the side of the screen to not cause additional loading times when people dont want to chat.
- Pictures should be removed from everywhere, only leaving them at your own lions.
- Your lion's stats perhaps could be displayed as % instead of bars at the top of the screen or something, to reduce picture loads.
- Buttons would be bigger. The map would be replaced with larger buttons as well, perhaps baring the corresponding picture of what they stand for,
Only these few things would reduce lag on phones and tablets greatly.

Feel free to suggest more things or change.

Thank you for reading.

To be honest I don't even think it needs to be in the works, at least, not for awhile! On an Iphone, Kindle, and an Android phone Lioden works just as it would on a computer. In fact, sometimes it's more slow on my computer >_>

I don't think it's a big necessity, so I have to say.... EH. If it happens it happens but I don't really support it highly either.

Think about this for a sec:
Just because it works for you, doesnt mean it works for everyone. And it will not damage your gameplay if we get an app.

I know. I'm saying, I don't care either way. However, it DOES damage my gameplay if they're putting off fixing bugs or doing major updates to make an app that many people have said is unnecessary because the game works fine for them on mobile.

It works fine over here on apple and android devices, and others have confirmed that it does for them as well. I don't care either way, but I don't support doing this OVER other gameplay features that will be put off/bugs that won't get fixed if the dev's put more work into doing this.

Thank you. I cant wait.
But I will keep it bumped and around until then, just so people dont make duplicates and see it was already suggested.

Yeah, I often play Lioden on my Kindle Fire 6", and it's a pain trying to click on small-font items. For example, the bookmarks. Often I try to tap ' Forum Notifications', and because it's so small, (And because of my fat fingers) it often takes me to 'Explore', or something like that. It's a real hassle.

And I don't like the idea of certain items being off-limits for mobile, like the forum, as I visit it often.

Yes, I agree, the Lioden site is very slow on android, but maybe they should make an app instead of an entire new website.
