Can transcendence be made for android someday, with layouts differing between keyboard attached and touch screen? Got the idea and couldn't live without posting here . Android lacks any decent games and if this is made for android, I think it will ROCK!

It would be very cool, but also very difficult. Transcendence is made without porting in mind. Porting it to any other platforms would be like making it again from scratch. At least, that's what I heard. I think there's some projects on porting Trans to OSX, but if you want to port to mobile, the new interface wouldn't be easily integrated.
Yes, look at my avatar, I have a wyvera type ship.

There's a planned future release of a trans-engine based iOS game where you're a CSC commanding a fleet of Centurions (if memory serves), so that might be the best bet. As far as the whole game goes that's not practical as far as I know.Calvin wrote:So there is no hope?

That was meant to be iOS? Not afaik.
re: original question - this gets asked at least once a year, and the answer is pretty much: "it'll happen if you make it happen" - everyone who has the know-how is busy working on other things. A mobile port would be a lot of effort and time to do, not to mention figuring out the UI.
