Android Game Development and iPhone Game Development – Device Perspective Part 1

I have discussed about iPhone Game Development and Android Game Development before, but bit long time ago. So, let’s give it a fresh look and see if there any change in the scenario or methodology and is iPhone Game Development still a pleasant thing in the market and first choice for clients? I hope this article will be useful to you in deciding of converting your game idea into reality.

I have been writing articles from some time now, being in the famous apps and iPhone Game Development and Android Game Development company Morpheous it has been privilege to share some information on the experience we have in the company about the apps and game development. As we work in open environment, I have been always helped by my colleagues about putting all useful links together and joining the dots, and I will be always thankful to those who help and inspire me in writing all this. So, let’s come to the point. What is that which makes iPhone Game Development and Android Game Development different? What is that which makes iPhone games anybody’s first choice before launching their games in other platforms?

Answer is simple, Device and App Store. But this does not mean that the scenario is as same as 6 months before when I wrote same article explaining the market share and development feasibility from iPhone Game Development and Android Game Development perspective. People are loyal to whatever Apple has rolled out so far and they did have retained their customers well. But the trend is changing and if Apple will not do something more on the look and feel of their hardware, then soon they might have to face the revise trend. As Samsung jumping in with all guns, it’s now became cut throat competition, and sales of Samsung based smartphones are ever increasing. With takeover of Nokia, Samsung has not only made itself a smartphone giant but has projected Android OS as their main stream mobile phone OS with even disregarding their own Bada.

This can be a game changer. Apple must take steps more carefully and blocking features to its users might not just work as well as it did from the beginning. With Samsung devices becoming more and more powerful, it is really more interesting to see what Apple will bring on their main stream iPhone device on next update. I will put more info on iPhone Game Development and Android Game Development from hardware perspective in my next article, till then Happy Gaming!!!
