Once your game has been added to steam, you should promptly receive instructions from them, detailing how to use the steam wrapper. After the steam wrapper has been included, you should then be allowed to use the Steam API commands with Visionaire. https://www.steampowered.com/steamworks/FAQ.php

Here are the steam API commands for Visionaire (accessible with Lua scripting):

Visionaire Version 4.0

Android HowTo

Installing a game with the beta version

There's no export option from the editor yet, the game therefore searches in a fixed path for the config.ini.

Download the Visionaire Player for Android
Copy the file visplayer_android.apk to the platform directory in your Visionaire Studio installation
Connect your Android device per usb
Copy the visplayer_android.apk to your device using the explorer
Create the folder visionaire in the root of your internal sdcard
Copy config.ini plus all vis files in that directory
Install the Apk per file manager on your device (you may have to enable untrusted sources)
Run & good luck

The Application will continue running in the background if you home-out of it, to reload the file you need to close the application (see here http://www.wikihow.com/Close-Apps-on-Android). It will drain your battery if you don't close it, just so you know.
