2 questions regarding the engine

[BjM]

Hi! First of all, amazing game! It's what I was looking for ages on android. Really like the old school feel, and it's UI is great for mobile. Nice game mechanics and pretty graphics. (sry, no comment about sound, I always play mute)

So, to my questions. Somewhere on the forum (sry, found while working and didn't found now) the graphic desingner told the game was made on a Java 2d engine. Is there a more specific term, name? Or it was an engine made by the team on Java?

The other is, if it's Java isn't it supossed to be easily compiled for pc? I didn't have the demmand for this, like it mobile, but this question makes me itch.

Sry, for the english, brasilian here.

Bye!

Hi,

we're using the engine jPCT for Android. It's basically a wrapper for OpenGL to make things easier.

The main problem for porting is the world around the graphical stuff. There's a tight coupling between Android SDK and the game itself. So I think this would be the main part where work has to be done.
