Adapt: Mobile to Desktop

Expert guidance for scaling mobile games to desktop platforms.

NEVER Do

NEVER keep touch-only controls — Add mouse/keyboard alternatives. Touch controls on desktop feel awkward and limit precision.
NEVER lock to mobile resolution — Desktop can handle 1920x1080+ and higher frame rates. Upscale UI, increase render distance.
NEVER hide graphics settings — Desktop players expect quality options (resolution, VSync, shadows, anti-aliasing).
NEVER use mobile-sized UI — Touch targets (44pt) are too large for mouse. Reduce button/text size by 30-50%.
NEVER forget window management — Players expect fullscreen, borderless, maximize, and multi-monitor support.

MANDATORY: Read the appropriate script before implementing the corresponding pattern.
