Implementing ads with admob

Processing for Android
6

Thanks for the code.

The project built just fine, and it installed no problem. On it’s own, the sketch launched, and I could see the test ad. Unfortunately, after adding my game, I got this error:

:app:transformDexArchiveWithDexMergerForDebugDex: The number of method references in a .dex file cannot exceed 64K.

I don’t understand why i’m getting this issue, because I have nowhere near 65536 methods in my sketch. Did you encounter this issue as well?

If anyone knows how to solve this, please help!
