I and one of my friend is willing to take on this project. We both are college students and this is how we wish to tackle this project: I will be working on a desktop version of the game with python, pygame - which will be more feature-rich and heavy compared to the Html5 version made specially for all mobile devices - which will on the other hand concentrate more on connectivity features and web-based features. This way, your project can benefit from both the power of desktop apps and the mobility factor of mobile apps.
Also, we wish to keep a similar experience on both the platforms, so the user feels right at home.
We have previous experience in game development and website development respectively, although they were mostly experimental. In case you are interested about them, please pm.
