This is a very quick question, not scripting involved. I was wondering if using Unity 5’s multiplayer, is it possible to make a multiplayer Windows Phone 8 game? And if so what kinds of things can the Windows Phone handle with regards to multiplayer? (And if its possible, maybe a brief explanation on how, or a link?)
Thank you!
It’s definitely planned to support Windows Phone 8. I can’t say if it’s there right now.
You will depend on Unity’s Relay Service as direct connections are near impossible in mobile networks. The pricing is not yet announced.
As you host on someone’s phone, the host can be off suddenly anytime and the game is over for all connected players (more problematic, the more players you have per game).
What you can achieve depends on your skills and how you communicate. Probably a lot. Mobile and WiFi have more loss than machines with a lan connection but they are powerful anyways.
