i got the steam Version for the game, because i had no Windows tablet. I love the game and the steam Version works well on my Win7 PC.
I bought a Windows Surface pro and wanted to Play game dev Tycoon, but it just is not playable. The game starts, but it’s sort of laggy, it is bad scaled and the touch Screen does’t work right.
I loaded a Trial Version of the game from the Windows store and that Version works very well.
Is that a bug in the steam Version? Is it possible to install the Windows store Version with the steam key? or do i have to buy the game a second time in Windows store?
As you are aware, there are currently three editions of the game:
The Windows 8 Store Edition available via the Windows Store for Windows 8 only.
The Greenheart Games Store Edition
The Steam Edition
The Windows 8 Store Edition
Allows you to install on as many Window 8 machines as you like, so long as you sign in with the same account and password to each one. However, Windows Store apps are limited to Windows 8 or Windows 8 RT.
The Greenheart Games Store Edition
Allows installation to 3 PCs at any one time for your personal use. Those 3 machines may run any version of Windows from XP onwards (including Windows 8, but not Windows 8 RT), Mac OS X 10.7.5 or later, and most recent releases of Linux.
The Steam Edition
Allows you to install on any computer which you are signed into with your Steam account and uses a supported platform.
Sorry but it is not currently possible to be given a version from another store, other than the store you purchased from.
With the exception of Steam Keys which are available to all our customers
