Congrats! Can’t wait to have enough time to submerge myself into it

I’ll also point out that performance has been A-OK so far on my gen 1 iPad, for anyone else who has one and was wondering about buying desktop vs. mobile. (It is SO NICE to have something new come out that works with it.)

Yes, you have sussed my malefic plan to get every Windows Phone user to buy a game without realizing that there is no Windows Phone Glulx interpreter.

(There goes my Nobel Beet^H^H^H^H Videogame Prize.)

Actually I have no idea what the Windows Phone situation is. Anyone know?

The Android situation is this: there is no supported Android Glulx interpreter at this moment. But, as noted in a different thread (Suggestions for the Game of the Month: September 06), Ben Collins-Sussman has posted a work build of the bleeding-edge Twisty repository (bitbucket.org/sussman/twisty/downloads). It does not work for all Glulx games, but it seems to work for HL.

Okay, so I didn’t realise that the game is in Glulx. But what, exactly, is preventing you releasing it as a standalone app on Android?

[zarf (Andrew Plotkin)]

There is no supported Android Glulx interpreter, and I don’t know anything about Android development or the release process on the Google Play store.

Ah, I see. Not to worry, I’ve found a link that can help you: http://www.intfiction.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=33

Does anyone else find that, on the iPod, the font is just a tad too small to read comfortably and that if the maximum font size limit were increased playing would be a lesser visual strain?

EDIT - If someone does, I’ve realised that using the font Euphemia makes it better as it’s the biggest of the available fonts. FWIW.
