Misleading title is misleading. Just dropping OS X 10.6 - 10.8


Dang.


yeah!


Oh, you can download it in PC Settings if you are already running windows 10, then you can go under Update and recovery and press preview builds and download the new one :) easier since you don't have to run the installer.


fantastic. glad they went through such lengths to keep a non-invasive user experience


Outrageous - Someone sticks their neck out to give you an intro and you effectively lop it off when you fail to respond.


Infographic was a nice touch! Accurate article.


love to see it native


The app is intended to be a mobile web app that allows for real money (USD + Bitcoin) skilled gaming on the games we know and love. We are working on restricting access of the game to mobile devices only.

Both the Apple App Store, and Google Play store have strict terms of service against skilled games.

Why are you purposely trying to prevent non-mobile users from using your app? Do you think that will prevent cheating?


We think that it's only fair if you're competing against people who play from touch screen mobile devices versus arrow keys. It would be as if one person had a little goal, and one person had a bigger goal on a soccer field. We are just trying to keep things fair.

@TheSwan, I agree that that would be cheating, and we will try to minimize that. The difference between mobile and desktop gaming is very big, and we're trying to create a fair gaming environment. Having a mouse and keyboard versus an xbox controller to play a game makes a big difference. I personally prefer the keyboard.

The same works for touch screen tapping, and using keys or clicks for our mobile game.

You can't really assume that mobile devices can't cheat though - you could (rather) trivially inject cheating javascript into a WebView.


I see that you actually took the liberty of proving your point looking at the leaderboard.

We will try to fix these issues as soon as possible. - Sagar, VsMe Gaming
