is there plans to make an andriod os application?

Hi,

Yes. We are planning to make an Android and BlackBerry port, since they are both Java based.

A Zune HD port would be great, although I guess it's not doable, since MS won't release their SDK.

One can dream though.

8 months from the reply that you plan to port it to android but no port as yet (speaking as an ex customer that doesnt want to purchase a gme for the pc i later plan to buy for my g1 its kinda annoying)

Hi,

We are still busy with the linux port and working on a new expansion pack.
Porting a game it's not a process of : "somebody asks for it on our forums, and we start working on it the next day".

As much as I would like to do as many things as possible in the shortest time, I am afraid it is pretty much impossible. There are also costs involved in these processes (test devices, fees, etc) which we need to properly budget.

Indeed Android isn't and it wasn't a major priority since the market share of the device is small.
Some things did happen in the meanwhile, however.
Since Android is Java based, I did some work on trying to design/port the game to Java, and trying to cover more Java platforms in one shot.

Actually, a "port" is not even possible. The hardware is different (display, input and capabilities) and the programming language is different. In these situations, any developer ends up making a new game from scratch.

What I can say at this time, is that we have finished most of all other projects that were using up time and resources, and we are starting the new year with porting Hacker Evolution to various new platforms, which will include Android.

There are too many things to be done, and not enough time and resources.
People who are around here for a longer time, know that we do our best to satisfy everyone.
