Android Versions of all Aps, with "Space Amoebas" and "iHateDucks - The Game" Announced 2011-11-18 [05:09:00]

We have been working on the Panzer Dachshund Wargame Engine for years now and are pleased to announce the upcoming release of Crowbar within a month with Empire Africa to soon follow.
Developing for the Android has been exciting. All of these projects were really destined to be mobile aps, but with the lack of popularity of Pocket PCs and the limited distribution, the Android Marketplace is soon to be the new home of all of our games.

"Blake Snow writes that according to one expert, 90% of players who start a game will never see the end of it and it's not just dull games that go unfinished. Only 10% of avid gamers completed last year's critically acclaimed Red Dead Redemption, according to Raptr, which tracks more than 23 million gaming sessions.
'What I've been told as a blanket expectation is that 90% of players who start your game will never see the end of it unless they watch a clip on YouTube,' says Keith Fuller, a longtime production contractor for Activision.
The bottom line is people have less time to play games than they did before, they have more options than ever, and they're more inclined to play quick-hit multiplayer modes, even at the expense of 100-hour epics. 'They're lucky to find the time to beat a 10-hour game once or twice a month,' says Fuller of the average-age gamer.
'They don't feel cheated about shorter games and will just play a longer game for as many hours as their schedule allows before moving on to another title.' Even avid gamers are already warming to the idea of shorter games. 'Make a game worth my time and money, and I'll be happy,' says Casey Willis. 'After all, 10 hours of awesome is better than 20 hours of boring.'"
