In the previous post we let you know about the Rebuild strategy game for the PlayBook and how it was available on another platform then ported to the PlayBook. I was pleasantly surprised to hear how porting their game to the PlayBook went and wanted to share Sarah’s comments.
RIM pulled an Oprah stunt at the GDC Choice Awards this year and gave free PlayBooks to everyone in the VIP seats, including Independent Games Festival nominees and their hangers-on (ie: me). I’d been curious about the device and wondered how easy it would be to port my popular strategy game Rebuild to the PlayBook using Adobe AIR. Turns out: extremely easy. After one day of project setup, a second day of development, and a couple days waiting for RIM to approve my account
and the game, Rebuild is now available in the App World. To compare, I sent Apple an update for the iOS version before I started, and it’s still waiting for review a week later.I’d like to let other developers know how easy this was and hopefully it will help bring more apps to the PlayBook.
I know that many more apps are being ported to the PlayBook, and some are still going through some porting woes, but it is nice when they go quickly and flawless. If you want to read more on how the porting to the PlayBook via Adobe AIR and FlashDevelop went, follow the link below.
