Description

Even as the phones start to converge, our jobs as game developers remain complex trying to support multiple platforms and languages. We will address some of the similarities in the phones and the differences and discuss strategies to create social games that can go across different devices and OS's. Discussion topics will include: how the phones and API's differ, what is built into the OS and what you have to do yourself, what third party SDK's are available to leverage, what it takes to develop your game for social connectivity, how to develop your game to maximize connectivity and minimize development, and ways to overcome language differences, tools issues and data compatibility.
