OSMOS GAME FOR IPAD ANDROID
Android is essentially the same as iOS so, bringing multiplayer from iOS to Android is fundamentally a porting job, whereas bringing it to PC would require adding it to what is essentially a different game.Īlso, as has noted, there aren’t a ton of players playing Osmos multiplayer, nor has it really impacted sales of the game besides an initial spike on release. When we ported the game to iOS, however, we took a lot of the lessons we learned from PC and redesigned the game: with new level structures, different menus, different achievements, etc. On one hand we have the Win/Mac/Linux versions which are all essentially the same, minus some minor platform-specific differences. To explain why “it’s complicated” on other platforms: we really have two versions of the game. On a final note… For your devoted ‘advanced’ players, we want more challenges! Multiplayer type play vs smart bots is one suggestion. This could be the ‘default’ behavior, with the option for more aggressive players to turn it off.Īnother marketing tool that would be useful would be Facebook integration to allow players an easy way to spread the word. I wonder if some sort of automatic handicapping might keep more players active. One theory I have is that there is such a drastic gap in skill level between advanced players and beginners such that newbies give up on the game before giving it a chance. I’ve wondered about this a lot - The multiplayer action is in a class of its own, so why aren’t there swarms of brave motes trying to get in on the action? One major downside, by no fault of anyone, really is the apparent lack of popularity– sometimes it takes forever to find an opponent, if one can be found at all. So what are you waiting for? Go show your friends who’s boss of the Blobiverse!Īmazing game ++multiplayer makes it my fave game on the iPhone.

OSMOS GAME FOR IPAD UPDATE
This update also includes iPad Retina support, Twitter integration, and many more audio/visual improvements. This is a free update to the iOS versions of the game, and includes 6 distinct arenas in which players can play against each other - both locally and online - in a mote-eat-mote absorption-fest of skill and strategy. We’ve worked long and hard on this one, and are excited to announce a major addition to Osmos: multiplayer!
