Graal PC is being marketed as a Development Platform / Game. The work on iOS/Facebook is being marketed as a game. Stefan/unix are very keen on having the servers here "ported" to the other platforms.

The same development tools are used, you just need to understand the constraints of the environment you're developing for. You need to develop using event-driven code instead of the lazy fall back 20 (0.05s) FPS Timeouts (you can still use them but just not as much) that are currently used almost everywhere on Graal PC in multiple system scripts.

Your development focus should be on creating good gameplay/content not attempting to single-handedly "revive Graal PC" which will drive you completely insane.

If you're half decent at GS2 you can easily get hired on iEra though.
