i was thinking on making a pc and android games on unreal engine 4 but know im seeing sony
talking about the gaming in the cloud and
the nvidia shild has the ability to stream pc games from an Internet modem and a pc so i was thinking

is it possible to do the something smiler with the smart phones
lets say im playing a pc game and i just left home is it possible to stream the game on my smart phone
with just a good Internet connection (note: the resolution is the same on both platform)

if not

then is it possible to make the same game on both platform where the save data well work on the pc virgin of the game and the android virgin
so that all you have to do is send the save data from one platform to the other (note: the resolution is not the same)

Look into making a networked game for mobile platforms. The mobile has restrictions in resources, including the connection. It’s not going to be the same experience, going from PC to mobile. There are many games though that make an aspect of the game available through mobile, such as the Auction House in World Of Warcraft, that can be done mobile, but you can’t move your avatar about on mobile.

Engine does no support video streaming, only via 3rd party solutions similar what NVidia Sheld has. As for cloud gaming, usually those are normal PC games under a hook of cloud service software, but i didn’t heard UE4 supports that as target platform.

As for save sync, yes thats possible and there many ways to achieve that, i think save files should work on any platform as it same same game state regardless of platfrom.

Or else you gonna do game ground up for mobile ;] Look at Tappy Chicken or Swing Ninja you can play on both, you can sync both if you like, or something more advanced (but on diffrent engine) like Hearthstone.

Also check some and games which let you play between both, i know is game dedicated, but it’s already less powerful then some mobile devices + mobile prefermence going constintly up
