Is this game gonna be on the google store and apple store
I highly doubt it as this is only on PC for now. Maybe in the future from the developers though.
At this stage we don’t have any plans to support other Stores yet. It will be a while before we will be able to consider other Stores for the game.
This is less due to us not having time and more due to the complications that come with certain stores such as the Mac Apple Store.
Hopefully it will be released for Android or Apple some day, it would be perfect for a tablet!
But what complications are there from the stores? I thought it would be pretty easy to upload something for let´s say the Google Play Store?
I don’t quite think its easy. You would still need to port it over, then go through them if they want the game, work out contracts, etc. Its difficult.
Yep, The Sniper is right, in my above post i should have written Stores/Platforms. It is not so simple to make a pc game run on device and it is not so simple to use other stores either. Each store has its own rules, and each platform has its own needs and requirements. At the moment Game Dev Tycoon requires;
System Requirements: ~2GB RAM, graphics hardware acceleration, minimum resolution of 1024x768
would like to see it running on a nexus, too
but you could try to unpack and copy over all data files, then load in chrome,
report back on the results…could do that too but don’t want to brick me phone.

Actually, I have found out that if they developers wanted to port over the game to iPhone/iPad, this would cost a substantial amount of money (Indy Developers have done it, but they have had huge success with there games), and once you made the game, you have to go the Apple and they will review it, see if its up to there standards, then it gets released. Same with patches, it has to go through the company first (Apple) before releasing a patch on that system. But when the game would get released, well if, they would get lost in the thousand games released per day on that store.
