提高应用曝光率,OpenFeint推Spotlight搜索功能

发布时间:2011-01-29 13:30:18 Tags:,,,,,

尽管Android平台过于开放的特点流失了不少用户,却正好为手机社交游戏平台OpenFeint创造了一线商机。

据游戏邦了解,自从Aurora Feint公司旗下的OpenFeint平台自登陆谷歌Android手机操作系统以来,它的目标就是为广大用户和开发者提供类似苹果iOS平台的游戏功能。为了优化和完善OpenFeint在Android平台上的服务,该公司最近又推出了新款应用Spotlight,支持用户更快捷地搜索应用,帮助应用创造更多曝光率。

在OpenFeint去年9月登陆Android平台之前,Aurora Feint公司首席执行官Jason Citron曾指出用户难以在Android平台搜索到热门应用的情况将严重影响整个平台的发展,因此本次推出的Spotlight 1.1版本的主要功能就应用搜索。

除了便于玩家寻找新游戏之外,该应用还支持用户结识新朋友,这两大元素的结合将更有利于高品质游戏受到更多关注。游戏邦认为,Spotlight的作用相当于Android平台的Game Center。

If the openness of Android is off-putting for some consumers, it’s presented an opportunity for social gaming network OpenFeint.

Ever since Aurora Feint launched the platform on Google’s OS, it’s set about employing the kind of features enjoyed as standard by iOS gamers and developers alike, signified most strongly by the launch of its Spotlight app.

Spreading the word

App discovery – at least of OpenFeint titles – was Spotlight’s priority when it made its debut in September, with CEO Jason Citron lamenting at the time that the difficulty consumers have tracking down top titles on Android was damaging the platform as a whole.

No surprise, then, that improving said discovery features on Spotlight is the main addition in version 1.1, recently launched on Android Market.

According to the company, Spotlight 1.1 makes it more straightforward for players to find both new games, and new friends – the combination of the two making it easier for good games to gain popular.

To that extent, it’s becoming more like Apple’s Game Center but for Android.

Spotlight 1.1 for Android can be downloaded from Android Market for free. (Source: pocketgamer)
