  • GAMING GLOBAL a Report for British Council Nick Webber and Paul Long with Assistance from Oliver Williams and Jerome Turner
    GAMING GLOBAL A report for British Council Nick Webber and Paul Long with assistance from Oliver Williams and Jerome Turner I Executive Summary The Gaming Global report explores the games environment in: five EU countries, • Finland • France • Germany • Poland • UK three non-EU countries, • Brazil • Russia • Republic of Korea and one non-European region. • East Asia It takes a culturally-focused approach, offers examples of innovative work, and makes the case for British Council’s engagement with the games sector, both as an entertainment and leisure sector, and as a culturally-productive contributor to the arts. What does the international landscape for gaming look like? In economic terms, the international video games market was worth approximately $75.5 billion in 2013, and will grow to almost $103 billion by 2017. In the UK video games are the most valuable purchased entertainment market, outstripping cinema, recorded music and DVDs. UK developers make a significant contribution in many formats and spaces, as do developers across the EU. Beyond the EU, there are established industries in a number of countries (notably Japan, Korea, Australia, New Zealand) who access international markets, with new entrants such as China and Brazil moving in that direction. Video games are almost always categorised as part of the creative economy, situating them within the scope of investment and promotion by a number of governments. Many countries draw on UK models of policy, although different countries take games either more or less seriously in terms of their cultural significance. The games industry tends to receive innovation funding, with money available through focused programmes.

  • Adventures at the Interplay of Poetry and Computer Games
    DUAL WIELD: ADVENTURES AT THE INTERPLAY OF POETRY AND COMPUTER GAMES JONATHAN STONE A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts, Creative Industries and Education, University of the West of England, Bristol August 2019 1 Abstract In recent years, poets and digital game developers alike have begun to experiment with the possibilities of poem-game interplay and hybrid poetry games. The results of such experiments are intimately connected to poetry’s expansion into digital-interactive space, a process described by Loss Pequeño Glazier as extending “the physicality of reading”. This experiential augmentation runs both ways: the technologies associated with game development permit the reader’s cybernetic incorporation into the world of the poem, while poetry may be used to lend shape and meaning to the bodily sensations experienced by the player of computer games. Additionally, computer game culture, long underprivileged in arts discourse, represents a new frontier of emergent assimilable dialect for the poet. The components of the computer game – its rules, content, interface, hardware – may all be absorbed into the textuality of the poem, recruited as units of poetic meaning, not just verbally but ideogrammically, imagistically or calligrammically. This is, in short, an abundant new playground for poets, while on the other side of the equation, the organisational strategies of poetry make for an equally rich resource for game developers. This project takes the form of a hybrid of more conventional theoretical analysis and practice-based research, analysing the existing state of poem-game hybridity and testing ways that it might be advanced through the creation of various example artefacts.

  • Apps for Gamesmy Downloaded Games These Are the Most Popular Ios Apps and Games of All Time
    apps for gamesmy downloaded games These are the most popular iOS apps and games of all time. Next week, Apple will—most likely—be announcing new versions of the iPhone and iPad, along with releasing the newest version of its mobile operating system iOS 9. It remains to be seen whether a new operating system or new devices will affect the types of apps we download. But a new report from app-tracking firm App Annie shows that our habits on our iOS devices haven’t changed much over the years. Facebook—first released in 2008—is the most downloaded app in the world of all time, and Candy Crush Saga, which debuted November 2012, is the most downloaded game ever. According to App Annie, which tracks the app stores in each country daily, US iPhone users have downloaded the top 10 apps of all time the most. The US dominated revenue earned for game downloads as well, apart from two games— Puzzle & Dragon and Monster Strike —where the Japanese spent the most. App Annie also said Apple’s Pages app is the only app on the list that doesn’t have a free version or in-app purchases (meaning it made all its revenue from people buying the app). Facebook-owned apps accounted for 40% of the most downloaded apps, a week after the company announced 1 billion people accessed the social network in a single day. Facebook also happens to be the only app in the top downloads chart that’s lasted since the initial launch of the App Store in 2008.

  • With Over 1.8 Billion Downloads, Storms and Halfbrick Studios Bring Instantly Playable Fruit Ninja and Jetpack Joyride Games to the Emerging Markets
    With over 1.8 billion downloads, Storms and Halfbrick Studios Bring Instantly Playable Fruit Ninja and Jetpack Joyride Games to the Emerging Markets Mar 10, 2021 Players can enjoy the games without having to download an app. SINGAPORE and BRISBANE, Australia, March 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Hyper-casual mobile game (HCG) publisher and social instant-play gaming company, Storms today announced an exclusive partnership with Halfbrick Studios, an Australia based indie game developer, to convert popular mobile hit games – Fruit Ninja and Jetpack Joyride – into social instant games' format with original core gameplay and assets. While smartphone penetration rate continues to rise in the developing world, mobile internet connectivity access levels remain below a third[1] for the emerging markets. Storms' mission of making mobile games accessible to 7 billion mobile users worldwide [2] means that for the first time, the poorly connected demographic within emerging markets get to access top marquee games, whereas the young and older demographics from developed markets with digital literacy gaps can play games on a web platform without having the need to download from app stores. The team is also in the works of incorporating a social element for both Halfbrick classics within its instant gaming ecosystem to further enrich gaming communities' overall experience. For the first time ever, Fruit Ninja and Jetpack Joy Ride fans will get to participate in friendly tournament modes to compete on their scores. Both games will be made available in April 2021 on Storms' social instant gaming Android app and web platform, as well as exclusive partner platforms in emerging markets.
