I don't have any experience with iTGE, but my suspicion is that porting it over shouldn't be terribly difficult. The real problem lies in the complexity of the models and textures we're using. If the memory and graphics capabilities are up to snuff, then maybe–but I'm not terribly hopeful. That would mean a lot of reworking of the models. We'll see! Thanks for the encouragement.

I hadn't seen that. I do hope that--once the game is complete--you discover that porting it to the iPod isn't *too* difficult. I can't help but think that you might be able to bring a decent revenue with iPad/iPhone versions (of course, you could also get lost in the glut of the AppStore...). I have a feeling--and nothing but a feeling--that Vespers 3D occupies a place in the Venn diagram of gaming that could do very well on the iPhone. Anyway, march on. Looking forward to the next update on Vespers development, as always. Thanks for the link to the other post. I hadn’t seen that.

In a nutshell: doubtful, given the graphical complexity of the game. I talked about it a bit <a href="http://orangeriverstudio.com/monksbrew/2008/08/vespers-on-the-iphone-for-real/" rel="nofollow">on a previous post</a> when iTGE was announced (TGE for the iPhone), and most of that still applies. But perhaps once the game is done (seriously, it might actually be done someday) I can take another look... I’d love to see that, too.
