Savegame transfers between Vita and PC
Geoscape saves can be transferred between Vita and PC.
Battlescape saves can be transferred from Vita to PC, but not the other way around.
Mod support
RAM is pretty limited on Vita, so there's a change that game would just crash with heavy mods installed.
Other
You can change game resolution in the "Video" options menu.
320x200 provides the best performance. 960x544 looks good with a 1.5x Battlescape Scale.
"Fullscreen" display mode scales game surface to fullscreen. "Windowed" mode centers the game area w/o scaling it (640x400 in windowed mode is perfect x2 scale).
You can skip intros by tapping on screen. -
