Ignorant comment, I bet you already use Android. Apple gives 14 DAYS of refund policy, and Google just copied Apple model. Have fun with your LG.

But there, you were lucky to have an open source and free project to help you out. Because without it, you could be 100% sure the developers won't be updating them. Now, lots of games from the late 90's, early 2000's don'

Now, if only Apple or Microsoft added the opportunity to compile and run Cocoa or WPF Apps on competitor platforms, that would be great. Apple could do this very well, it makes sense from a business perspective, and from a technical perspec
