It seems to be so standard these days, but yet another developer
brought the ‘big news’ that it will ‘officially’ start developing
mobile games for Apple’s iPhone App Shop.
"Our experience working with Apple’s SDK has been extremely positive and the iPhone, with its accelerometer, opens up exciting opportunities for game development on this platform," explained Gordon Wood, Other Ocean’s technical director and senior programmer. "The iPhone platform has generated a lot of attention and people are excited for the opportunities that lie ahead."
So why do we emphasize ‘official’? Because the company already developed Super Money Ball for SEGA’s iPhone launch. This instantly gives a great track record as the mobile game had been used in a lot of PR around Apple’s iPhone.
“Choosing Other Ocean as our development partner to bring Super Monkey Balll to the iPhone was absolutely the right decision,” said David Cobb, Sega’s Vice President of Product Development. “Other Ocean’s dedicated and talented team has established itself as an industry leader on this new platform.”
