Mobile Audio Blues

November 23rd, 2008 by Arjan Olsder Posted in Analysis & Editorial | No Comments »

I am noticing a trend among mobile game
developers today. Many of the commercial games out there offer
screenshots as well as a sample video of the gameplay. The problem
is that these videos usually have the sound completely removed!
Sometimes there will be higher resolution music placed in the demo to
promote the game, but it usually is thrown in at the last minute and
has no relevance to the movement on the screen.
