so how are you results witht it.
Does it create any issues or does it works as expected?
I get a good amount of impressions with the reward videos. Players seem to want to watch the video rather than go back levels. I'm not making enough from the reward ads to quit my day job but it has provided a more stable revenue stream. I'm sure if I had millions of impressions the reward videos would be working even better.
I used @The_Gamesalad_Guru 's video tutorial and it works as expected in this game. The player starts up a level, when they run out of time a button pops up and ask if the want more time. When they click on the "more time" button the scene is paused and the chartboost reward video button appears. The user clicks the button and the video appears.
All of my ads have been filled. That being said I don't have millions of impressions. If I did there might be some ads that aren't filled which could pose an issue.
I may have overlooked this somewhere, but is it possible to have a reward video and Interstitial Ads in my game? I have a rule where I have a random number from 1-10 being returned and if that number is 10 a reward video is shown, but if it is not 10 then an Interstitial ad comes up.
Will that work?
If you're using the "Pause Game" behavior or changing scenes, just make sure to choose "Interstitial Ad" from the drop down box, if random number equals 1-9.
If random number equals 10 then be sure to use the same "Pause Game" behavior/change scene but choose the "Reward Video Ad" from the drop down.
@The_Gamesalad_Guru very useful!
Just a question: does the Ad Reward Value need to be reset?
Or it turns automatically to 0 when you exit the pause screen?

Thanks!!
I believe it needs to be reset, because it definitely is still changed when I leave my pause screen
This is an embed external element. It can be deleted using the delete key or the backspace key. To view the full element, press the preview button below.
May I add that if you implement this, you need to keep track of how many times a user has viewed videos that day. @Dan_Chartboost can confirm this, but Chartboost allows for a maximum of 20 videos per player per day.
So, keep track of the number of views, and only make the "View ad" option available to the players if they have not used up this limit.
Also be aware that your users may be from countries with a low fill-rate/inventory. This means that even though they are below 20 ads a day, they still may not get a video at that moment.
@CodeWizard , @GeorgeGS , it is awesome that you brought in rewarded ads, but please implement an initial "IsVideoAvailable" function to allow us to accommodate the above situations in a professional manner.
Hi @adent42 Is it possible to know when the video is available as mentioned in this comment? I would like to be able to show the button only when an ad is available.

My game Master Run is using rewarded video on level completion...

I have voted too fella..
I have it in the iOS and Google Play stores for my Find The Panda Game. I added timers to the levels to make them more difficult. iOS = https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-panda-friends-by-trapped/id1071300498?mt=8 Android = https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.trapped.findthepanda
When the player fails they have an option to get more time by watching a reward video or they go back three levels.

Overall I like reward videos.

@chaosmasterro I don't see why that wouldn't work. Yea it's possible with GS
@chaosmasterro I believe your method should work!
If you're using the "Pause Game" behavior or changing scenes, just make sure to choose "Interstitial Ad" from the drop down box, if random number equals 1-9.
If random number equals 10 then be sure to use the same "Pause Game" behavior/change scene but choose the "Reward Video Ad" from the drop down.
At least, this is how I would set this up
@As_Of_Latte , @NNterprises Ah excellent! Thanks!
@The_Gamesalad_Guru very useful!
Just a question: does the Ad Reward Value need to be reset?
Or it turns automatically to 0 when you exit the pause screen?

Yes, set it back to zero.
