Richard from Yoyogames messaged me through the help ticket that I've opened, they have now upgraded the google play extension & .apk expansion pack.
1. when I downgraded my build tools to 24 (since Yoyogames doesn't support over 24 build tools.)
2. deleted the old extension and expansion packs from my project.
3. upgraded my Game Maker Studio's Google Play Extension and .Apk Expansion packs.
4. cleared my compiler cache by the run button, temp directory, asset cache, backup directory cache through the file - preferences.
5. it's now building successfully.
I've been waiting on Google play to approve it, they did. Now the libpng update is installed on my larger game. I am now back in business, thanks again for all of your help good job patching the glitch.
Game Maker (beta) 1.4.1760
