If it's made on mobile can it be played on PC?

If I make a game wih Mini Micro on my mobile and publish it could spmeone play it on a PC? Like, in the mobile, the mouse.button function checks if you are touching the screen. If a game made on a mobile uses this function and someone plays it on PC will it detect the mouse or will it still check if you are touching the screen?

Yes, it'll work. The mouse module reports the primary touch on mobile, but on desktop it reports the state of the actual mouse.

Obviously if you use something like the tilt sensors (e.g. key.axis("Tilt X")), well only mobile devices have those. On desktop these will always report 0. So you would need to design your game with some alternative input method in that case.

Thank you. I didn't even know there was a tilt sensor, that's great!

I tested key.axis("Tilt X") with a loop to print it continuously to see if it worked but it was always 0. Same with "Tilt Y".

That's an upcoming feature of Mini Micro 1.2.
