They allow for more detail, better artwork and are simply more enjoyable than playing simplistic small sized games (in my opinion only!).<br /><br />As tech continues to evolve, we should be looking at broadening our apps and I mean size wise.<br /><br />In-game type advertising is also another method to circumvent the inability to advertise around a game if the size is too large.hyperbolanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717133688018454834.post-47670131891221077122011-03-07T10:17:00.505+00:002011-03-07T10:17:00.505+00:00The supposed resolution of a screen is typically 7...The supposed resolution of a screen is typically 72 or 96 DPI, but Flash doesn't really have a DPI, so there's no point in thinking about it in those terms. Just think about it in terms of pixels.Iainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16741682155796102883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717133688018454834.post-44193520388072671122011-03-05T18:58:52.050+00:002011-03-05T18:58:52.050+00:00hi iain,

Because if a display is running a high resolution, it should be because it's a big display, and therefore the pixels shouldn't be much smaller if smaller at all. If people are running a resolution so high that things get small, then they have that problem with everything else too on webpages and programs they use, and it's not really something for a game developer to worry about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717133688018454834.post-50432378739283240892009-04-20T21:07:00.000+01:002009-04-20T21:07:00.000+01:00It's interesting that you posted this on the same ...It's interesting that you posted this on the same day that Emanuele Feronato posted this - http://www.emanueleferonato.com/2009/04/20/the-perfect-size-for-a-flash-game/<br />It's obviously something we're all thinking about. I'm still undecided though.<br />I'm keen to try making some larger and even full screen games, but realise they'll be hard to distribute as they won't run on the majority of portals.Lawriehttp://www.lawriecape.co.uk/theblognoreply@blogger.com
