Why not use Adobe Air?

  I was wondering - it would be very easy to make this game run as a "proper" application using Adobe Air rather than the normal browser plugin. Code for both version would be pretty identical  and new players could use the browser and returning player  could run it in Air with (very much) increased performance. 

   

  Why not?

  maybe because wgt target market is the facebook crowd who can barely  turn on their 300 dollar walmart laptop

  and wtf is adobe air, flash 2.0?

  do you really think people who can't even tame web browsers and flash would be able to figure out "air"?

  That is why Air is good - the current method would still be available but those people. 

  Admit it - you have no idea what Adobe Air is?

  stfu, i don't need to know what adobe air is, i need look no further than "adobe" makers or rather the buy outers of macromedia flash, which has been a piece of crap since release over 13 years ago.

  ok, i googled it, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Integrated_Runtime

  looks like a piece of crap for lazy stupid  "programmers" incorporates flash AND java AND scripts. now there is a recipe for success if i ever saw one

  use your brain... if AIR was the answer, then wgt would be using it.

  wgt uses CS suite 4, which is 2 version behind and they cant even get that right

  nah, no need to google anything where adobe is concerned, hence your witty reply

  flash = lame, adobe = current owner of lame

  wgt = using lame to make money off of lovers of golf
