You know why ROBLOX isn't on android devices? It's because android uses SILK and not JAVA. Silk isn't very compatible with many scripting languages and other basic building blocks of roblox [building blocks as in what it is scripted in etc, not literal blocks -.-].
Silk really isn't that good and makes android a really weak competitor against apple in my opinion. |

| ROBLOX did state that they would work on Android AFTER Ipad, Iphone, and Ipod are all done. They are going to have to start from scratch with android, though. |

| It's going to take MUCH longer per android device for ONE simple reason... SILK... I despise Silk -.- ... It's so unreliable and the newer releases seem to have more and more run-time and reading errors. |

| The game on ROBLOX would be run on an app, not Silk. |

Their going to work on it when their done perfecting the "IOS" device. But don't expect it to be done for a LOOOOONG time, Android runs on Silk, it's not easy to work with, adding to the confusion is the different types of phones/devices. [=----------------=] GU3$T |

Nobody plays roblox on iDevices, and nobody uses android. USE YOUR FREAKING PC. JESUS FREAKING CHRIST. IS IT THAT HARD? |

So? I don't care. Roblox was made for pc. The game will run better, have better controls, and has easy chat. PC is the better option. Why should roblox bend backwards to add a crappy port to something nobody will really use? |

"mobile exclusive items" You know why there's exclusive items? Because nobody wants to play on touch devices for roblox. Roblox wants people to, though. So, they made some incentive, which seems to be working poorly. I haven't met someone that says they actually play roblox on a touchscreen in months. |

| I want to see it for Linux first. Anyways, Android isn't that hard to develop for. You just need to take a few extra minutes learning some quirks. |

| My point exactly. I have no idea what roblox was smoking when they came up with the idea of an iDevices port. |
