Umm no..i can compile any app/game made for windows into linux?
- Only if the sourcecode is availible
- The code needs to be portable (ie uses libraries and coded in a way that will easily allow the program to be compiled on any platform). which means any Windows specific code will need to be re-written.
- There is also the X86 vs ARM processor issues.. some code is geared towards x86(Normal PC/Mac) and won't easily compile on ARM platform without a ton of code rewriting.
- If it uses OpenGL The code needs to be re-written to OpenGL ES
