Mobile games through steam

[Zpajro]

There are games that are on steam and have a phone version of themselves, it would be nice if you could download and play those games.
It would make cross platform games more attractive to buy. And make it so you can go from iPhone to Android and kip alla games you bought through steam, again making steam more attractive to buy games from.

Cross-Platform games are harder to code and more harder to maintain. The best cross-multiplayer game so far is Rocket League.

Battle Islands and Operation: New Earth are on multiple platforms including mobile though not sure if they are cross-multiplayer.

I ment so you can play games you have on steam on your phone if it has a phone version of itself.
And yes I know how game development works...

The controls for steam games CANNOT be ported. If your talking about complicated games like CSGO or DOTA 2 on mobile, good luck.

However if your talking about the simple games on steam that are F2P, then they are already on mobile. BTD, Battle Islands and Operation New Earth for instance are mobile-friendly. They cannot be linked however unless through thrid-party software. Game progress cannot be continued on another mobile device because the steam cloud is for PC only.

I'm not talking about steam porting games...
I more ment that steam can work like appstore. But that it would work between pc android and iPhone.
And the type of games what would work are games like "mini metro".
