@millforce2k Since I play/ played a lot of mobile games, I can tell you this with utmost confidence; even app devs stop support for older OS. The main reason is that with every OS update comes new features which games and apps try to take advantage of. In older models (that don’t support these features), it becomes hard to maintain that app in that same quality (although “quality” subjective here) level. Like traditional Angry Bird games (the ones with the slingshots) explicitly mentioned in earlier update descriptions that support for older OS (then 4.0) would be stopped. Since Android is a vast environment, making an app that’s universal with these different models & with different OS builds become troublesome and costly (an example would be how certain updates crash on certain devices but not on others). So in other to cut that, devs stop building apps for older OS. yes, it can shy away some people from playing that game but many mostly upgrade their phones within a span of 2 years, so that idea gets thrown outside the window. It’s a sacrifice they make.
