xWarbeasTx Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Why wouldn't Klei Entertainment create a Don't Starve for Android or iOS? There are lots of players who would buy it for these platforms, for example: playing when their computer is broken or something. I strongly believe that it would be a succes if so...

Rosten Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 There's no way a phone could have the processing power necessary to run Don't Starve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xWarbeasTx Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Well, that's impossible. Games like Gangstar Vegas, Modern Combat 4 and others do work and Don't Starve wouldn't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talmatityaho Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 i think it will be really cool to have don't starve with me all the timeĀ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosten Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Well, that's impossible. Games like Gangstar Vegas, Modern Combat 4 and others do work and Don't Starve wouldn't?Because games like that were made for mobile phones, Don't Starve was created with PC gaming in mind, look at minecraft, the pocket edition barely has anything the PC and Console versions do.

xWarbeasTx Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 Minecraft PE doesn't has the same items and features, because the Mojang team didn't want to. They wanted to make it different. They said: "Different platforms, different gameplay". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaFeels Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Minecraft PE is getting an update (0-9-0) on July 10th 2014. This update will improve the whole game because it'll be like the pc version. It will have infinite worlds and many other things. I believe if this is possible for the Minecraft PE game, it's possible for Don't Starve. I would personally die for the IOS version!If you don't believe me, here's the link to the announcement:Ā https://mojang.com/2014/07/minecraft-pocket-edition-0-9-0-coming-july-10th/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaFeels Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Also, in the beginning it may be a stupid version of Don't Starve but it'll improve in time, just like Minecraft. It's a whole different thing to make an application than a game on the computer but yeah, it would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technology only goes forward and never stops moving. Everyday something new appears in the world of technology.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosten Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 There's also the part with such a small screen, it would be hard to do anything on don't starve because the screen is so small you can't read any of the text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could, but it's not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auth Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Ok, this is going to be the post to end all arguments. First of all, minecraft PE's infinite worlds works because as you travel is flushes the chunk completely from it's memory, but just remembers numbers as what id the blocks were. The phone could not handle DS, as it is a much larger game than minecraft, even with it's infinite worlds. DS also has much better graphics, and much more content. Sure it's not 3D, but if our phones get warm from the games already on there, DS would make it melt into our hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klavain Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Sorry, but it's officially coming out for Playstation Vita.. There are quite a few phones out there currently that blow the Vita out of the water. The hardware is there, the problem is coding for a different platform. Only time will tell, but I think it will be sooner rather than later. Just my two pennies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dictator Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 They should focus on the PC version, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klavain Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 They should focus on the PC version, in my opinion.Why? More devices supported = Larger audience = More income = Better support = Better, faster, stronger updates..I know you feel that the game will get dumbed down because of having to shoehorn in a game designed for PC's into different packages, but even if they have to alter the control scheme for various devices it doesn't mean they have to change the PC version.

Popcoin Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 There's no way a phone could have the processing power necessary to run Don't Starve.You couldn't be more wrong. Don't Starve has just been released on ios which runs great on my ipad mini 2 which has LESS processing power then an iphone 6 and the iphone 5s. There is more then enough processing power for Don't Starve to run on a phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xWarbeasTx Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 There's no way a phone could have the processing power necessary to run Don't Starve.I'm sorry thet I'm re opening this post but Blazingice, you are not correct.Don't Starve launched on iPad so it most definitely can go on Android as well... I really hope it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
