Hi Glenn/Gaffer, Amazing work. A (big) feature request: for the folks without an iPad (yet, like me), would you consider
porting to Windows or the Mac OS ? Thanks. (I understand if this is too much work. :) )
(...Like Angry Birds? Did it first come out on iOS, then later was ported to Windows and OS X?)


Thanks!

Right now I'm focusing on touch screens as I'm trying to develop a really intuitive way to interact with the stones and board.

My next target once the iPad prototype is finished will probably be Windows 8 or Android touchscreens.

I really like the idea of Windows 8 port because there are some relatively cheap, but BIIIIIG touchscreen PCs coming out onto the market now.

This will be the preferred way to play virtual go.

Yes, eventually there will also be a way to play with keyboard and mouse, but touchscreen is really the way to go.

Hi everybody, I've just implemented a "locked" mode, added star points, and the stone placement mechanic.

Please check it out and let me know what you think, *specifically* about how stone placement feels for you. This is a really important part!

Also, please tell your Go playing iPad owning friends! It's super early for this project. If you install it and like it, show everybody who might be interested. Help me out! :)

Hi everybody, I have a big update with multiple stone support, collision detection between stones, and a new shader for black and white stones.
