I'm wondering this too - looks like it might be possible through AppMobi: http://www.mobile-ent.biz/news/read/appmobi-adds-windows-phone-8-support-to-html5-sdk/019713

Did you include a privacy policy?

4.1.1 Your app must have a privacy statement if it is network-capable

If your app has the technical ability to transmit any user's personal information, you must maintain a privacy policy. You must provide access to your privacy policy in the Description page of your app, as well as in the app�s settings as displayed in the Windows Settings charm.

Audio playback rate and custom cursors are notable incompatibilities we've run into. Generally everything works very well though.

You can install apps on multiple devices just fine, you'll just need a valid development license:http://blogs.msdn.com/b/matt-harrington/archive/2012/04/14/how-to-share-your-metro-style-windows-8-app-with-another-developer.aspx

Good find, this would have caused problems for us.

Thanks for the detailed reply - it makes sense why it's not a good idea to fix. As some context this was being used in dynamically created GUI (like pause screens and end of level screens) to create a 'continue arrow' and a 'back arrow'. Hence the flipping.

I can simply use a new sprite or recreate the Sine behaviour. Thanks!

Looks like I forgot to introduce myself :)

My name's Henry Hoffman. I've been working as a professional games developer/designer for a couple of years now, snagging a few awards in the process. You can see some of my work here: http://www.henryhoffman.com/

Tired of reinventing the wheel, I looked for an HTML5 game engine that let me focus on gameplay rather than the same-old foundations. Looks like I found it.

My first commercial Construct 2 game is called Mortar Melon, and should be hitting Windows 8 before Christmas.

Unity is definitely the best bet. If you can't afford a Unity license, then I'd focus on a single platform first (PC) and use Unity free. Then when your game blows up, you get lots of interest and people chuck money at you - then think about upgrading and porting.

Hi,

When dynamically assigning a negative width/height to an object with the sine behaviour, followed by activated the sine, the negative value resets to the default width/height.

Yep, my bad.

Just to reiterate, when checking 'on view state snapped' also check 'on start of layout + is view state snapped'. This ensures it accounts for resuming into a snapped state.

Thanks!
