“[with Android] We just can’t get complicated applications functioning with any kind of speed (if at all) … it’s not because we’re stupid or don’t know the platform well enough”.
(From this month’s Develop – an article by the the CCO of Somethin’ Else)
Develop is trade-press, for professional game developers (mostly coders, IME). No further explanation was given.
Kind of hard to believe, considering our own experiences on the platform. I asked a few others for their considered opinions. First three reactions:
- “WTF?”
- “Bollocks”
- “Bullocks”
Hmm. I’m intrigued to know what they can code on an iPhone 3GS, but not on the more powerful Android phones from 2010 (let alone the ones from 2011).
