Tagplay has an amazing success with their iOS release of Funpark & Friends. To extend the reach of the game, Tagplay teamed up with Tapjoy to get the game out on the Android platform.
The companies built the Android version on Tagplay’s MoFlow games engine. The benefit of this platform is gamers can interact with their friends regardless of the platform they are on.
Paul Farley, MD of Tagplay commented: “We are delighted to bring the award winning Funpark Friends to the growing Android gaming community. The game’s mix of strategy, building and social game-play has already proven to be very popular on iOS and we expect its success to continue on Android. Funpark is the first of our titles to use our moFlow technology platform to enable friends to play games together regardless of their mobile operating platform. Tag now looks forward to a future roadmap of simultaneous social mobile game releases enabled with exciting cross platform play!”
Tagplay has partnered with Tapjoy to bring Funpark Friends to Android as part of the $5 million Tapjoy Android Fund. Tapjoy has provided Tagplay with working capital as well as access to Tapjoy’s expertise in the monetisation and distribution of mobile applications. The partnership represents the commitment of both Tagplay and Tapjoy for the Android platform and the importance the two companies place on the platform in the future of mobile games.
