Peter will share how the democratisation of mobile game publishing has fuelled an explosion of content and innovation when he looks at Expanding Mobile games to the 10-foot (Living Room) Experience.
Development tools like Unity and the rise of Android are now extending the audience for mobile games beyond tablets and smartphones to console-like devices connected to the biggest screen in the home. Players are enjoying casual, local PvP, and even mid-core “mobile” games in a whole new way. How do you bring your traditional mobile game to a set-top box, and what do you stand to gain? Are there specific issues to consider when making the transition? This session explores the benefits, pitfalls, and practical reality of making your mobile game run on the new devices.
Frank will be looking at “Next Generation TV” – more info will be published on the Meetup page shortly.
There’ll also be snacks and a few beers plus the chance to win a prize or two.
