Hmm, ok, I feel like I'd better respond to this "what a scam, charging for a free game!" idea.
I've spent about three months (in addition to a year of writing the original game) porting Dink to mobiles.
I didn't just do a quick port, I tried to make an old game truly playable by lovingly adding new features that Dink has never had such as full state-saving, in-game DMOD download/install, time-skipping. The reason there isn't a free version out there with things is simple:
It's Hard To Do.
If Absolution or anyone thinks that is a "scam" and $3 to support Dink by paying for my time isn't worth it to have these features on a mobile, by all means, stick with free versions, which happens to includes Dink HD for Windows, btw.
HD Bugs? Huh? I'm really happy about how few problems the mobile versions have had considering the massive internal changes, and this forum is the reason to thank for that. It was the largest beta test I've ever done, more than the original Dink had!
Anyway, I have a new Windows Dink HD version I've been working on the last few days, so regardless of how you feel about the mobile versions, realize that it made this version possible.
It's pretty cool as you can now drag the window to any size and play dink across multiple monitors. Why would you ever want to do that? I dunno, but it's fun to do once.
I plan to eventually release the HD version as open source.
