Well, it may not be possible to officially play over a network, HOWEVER it IS possible to play a game together on separate computers. Though it can take a lot of planning and thinking to do. You also don't need any other programs for local network games. What you do is make a mapped network drive. You then put the game on that drive. Then on both computers, load the game and play it. What the game does, is it saves anything it needs to a file in the same mapped drive, which will be read by both games, thus allowing network gaming. In order to play over the internet, you do the same thing, but with a VPN such as Hamachi.
I'm not good at coming up with signatures...

Ive made a very simple checkers game over a local network that i played on my computer and laptop, its not that hard to save each actors position and make it show on the other screen, but as the game gets complicated it stupidly hard :) so yes it is possible, and can be rather easy for a very simple game, but alot harder for a harder game :) hope that helps

(cant post my example yet, im not at home :) )

Wow, nice job on that. I was looking for more online multilayer, thats why I came to GE however long ago, But I liked the interface so much so I didn't care :p GE is fun to use. So I would really like to figure out how to get a game on my Ipod touch.

My game isn't on the App store, thats what I'm trying to do, but really I don't even care if it's on the App store,

I'm just wondering if its possible I can use GE to make a game, then get it on my Itouch.
