Today Playyoo’s Launch Contest ends. If you want to influence who is going to win 25.000,- USD than hurry up register and play the games you like. Some fine Flash Lite games are on our platform. Lots of eyeballs are on the leaderboard today

Well, I think we at Playyoo are addressing many of the issues raised: costs for porting to different devices, game creation, and game types.

GDC: Mobile is “Stagnating,” Must Evolve : Next Generation - Interactive Entertainment Today, Video Game and Industry News - Home of Edge Online: “But the panel also presented a variety of ways the industry is evolving to combat the problems of encroaching stagnation.”

We tackle the challenges in manifold ways: we are dedicated to casual games, with Flash Lite we try to circumvent the porting issue, and with free and (expert and novice) user -generated content we strive to solve the issue of innovation and creativity.

Recently I stumbled upon this article on “The Real Viral Effect” (PDF). The “real” refers to the long tail meaning that sustainable effects from viral campaigns come over long time and not the initial burst. They show off a nice chart - please click the link above.
That reminded me, however, of a pattern I observed at Playyoo as well.

We have a challenge going on here at Playyoo. If we have 10000 users by next Friday Tim and me jump into the very cold Lake Lugano.
