when will the game be availably for windows phones. I really want to switch devices.
Yeah maybe new year?
Perhaps they can put it in the Windows store for Surface 2 please
Can a dev or win8.1 user, tell if we can play al through chrome, but on a win tablet? I would like to buy one like toshiba encore, or dell venue, but if I can't play al, I'll go on an android tablet.
So the game should be available on new years for windows phones

The single largest draw back to windows mobile devices is their app store. Google is constantly stonewalling any advances Microsoft attempt to make. Examples include, but are not limited to, removing the YouTube app from the windows market and refusing to do a cross over market without heavy up charges to windows users.
Apple plays ball with nobody but Apple. And Google doesn't want a third leg in the race. Admittably the windows devices have some components I prefer (I want Microsoft office on my mobiles, not going to lie) but without a built up app market I don't see myself buying one.
Microsoft is going to be forced to do the coding on the buig name apps like angry birds, temple run, candy crush, minion rush, clash of clans, and all the others on the top apps list before independent developers make their apps compatible with windows devices.
The majority of windows devices are used fore work. We all know the "cool people may use a mac but business men use a PC" Campaign. So, it might be a year or two until windows starts to really become a competitor in the mobile devices gaming race.
On an 8.1 tablet tablet, you can run the chrome or flash version, but the issue is that you need a keyboard because those versions don't have a touch functional dpad.
Ive tried that, its doesnt worksQuote:

I play the Chrome version on my surface pro all the time on 8.1
On a side note sam, any plans to simply add a dpad options option for the chrome version since so many devices using chrome are touchscreen?

Yes, any device that supports Chrome (almost all now-a-days) can play the Chrome version. Although, as stated, it is a pain. An app that allows the same gameplay as the android or apple market app is still far off.Quote:
