Monument Valley was an award-winning phenomenon on cellular again in 2014 that made its approach to PC ultimately, as did its sequels and a number of other different video games by its developer, Ustwo. That studio has now apparently moved on from mobile-first growth, as CEO Maria Sayans just lately informed Cell Gamer.
“What has modified extra just lately is shifting our focus to ‘PC first’ in our future titles,” Sayans stated, “quite than cellular first. This stems from a realisation that there’s a ceiling to how a lot you are able to do on PC and console when you find yourself perceived as a mobile-first recreation, and that you just make compromises each in product design and go-to-market methods when cellular is your lead platform.”
If, like me, you solely know Ustwo for Monument Valley—a nice puzzle recreation about mazes fabricated from Escher-esque optical illusions, with snacky ranges well-suited to telephones—the studio can be answerable for a surreal turn-based techniques recreation set inside somebody’s thoughts in addition to a nature-loving photograph safari that is serving to the surroundings in the true world.
