Anything can be ported. datboidrew 's game Super Ubi Land is being ported to Unity for the Wii U.

I actually don't know much about this, but I'm guessing that porting sometimes involves (as it will in this case) a complete recreation of the game in another engine.

0 is max volume, negative infinity is off. This may sound a little strange but (I think) it's the standard way to do volume.

(I would really like the ability to set the volume from 0-100% however!)

—, there is an angry birds-style game included in the project templates I believe.

If you just want to scroll on the X axis, just get rid of the scroll to behavior and add an event:

Every tick: Scroll to X: Ball.X

I'm glad to hear Scirra's dedication to making their software capable for a full-scale game!

The issue of 'fake developer' is interesting to bring up though. I wonder if, were a C2 game to become popular, it would not be seen as highly as a game made in a more low-level engine. C2 is so good that it almost feels like 'cheating' to make a very good game in the software - would other developers feel 'cheated'?

This also brings up a question which I have not been able to answer honestly - does a C2 game deserve as much respect as the same game made from scratch?

I'm pretty sure some third party plugin developers have been working on this, but I do agree that it would be wise for Scirra to invest some time on a node-webkit object so that everything works perfectly with the engine.

Don't use phonegap. Don't use phonegap. Don't use phonegap. It's not really an option anymore.

Yes, Thunder is correct, and this is where copyright law becomes really convoluted. When does inspiration become stealing?

Mipey Sure, this may be true, but the OP was asking about legal protection, not actual protection of game assets.
