Just a thought popping into my head on the journey home from work;
Have you guys (developers) considered a sign in system that could allow players to save their progress through an external server and play on multiple devices? I feel it could be a brilliant addition allowing 2 or 3 devices to be used for the same save and would potentially bring more mobility to the gameplay, I have played games with this system before and it really encourages me to play more as opposed to having multiple saves on my iphone and my ipad (which tends to discourage me as starting again when you’ve finished the game can be seen as a tad tedious).
Apologies if this has already been covered, but with the money being made from gold purchases could it not be considered a possibility?

You can transfer your own save file to another device via backing it up via iTunes.

iCloud saving would handle this as well, if they decided to implement it.

I know this but having to do this each time would become a drag. Either that or the inevitability of eventually forgetting and ‘losing’ data collected on one device when playing on another would invoke considerable nerd-rage 😛
And good point Ashley, but it’s a large game, iCloud would reach it’s limits in my case xD

Ah, I getcha. Yes, I do imagine that’d be very frustrating.

It would only store the save file on iCloud, not the entire game. The save file barely takes up any space.

Could work, either or would do me fine! 🙂

I think they thought of this but never got around to it 😕 I want to save my files and play on other devices!!

Yeah we thought of it 🙂 iCloud sharing is pretty easy to implement, but its also has a lot of… side effects 🙂 I dont want to mention them just because I dont want to give ideas on how to cheat but… Thats why we are not doing it. Its technically very easy to do. So many cool things we could do if we didnt have to think about cheaters ☹
