Joe Wee认为google的andriod平台和微软的手机平台将有不错的发展空间,但是他更加看重苹果iphone所能带来的商业能力。苹果应用程序商店拥有为数众多的下载用户和良好的用户终端下载体验。

Joe Wee的公司从2002年就开始开拓手机游戏方面的市场。

The developer behind the one of the most popular iPhone games ever says he’s getting calls on a “daily basis” from Google and Microsoft to port his games to their platform.

He’s ignoring their requests for now because Apple iOS is the only “commercially viable” mobile platform for him.

We spoke with Joe Wee, the director of Chillingo, the company behind Angry Birds, a $0.99 game, which involves flinging birds across the screen to destroy forts.

Angry Birds has had over 4 million paid downloads, and Joe says it is the “biggest, fastest selling iPhone game,” ever. (The previous king of the App Store was Doodle Jump.)

Joe’s company has been in the mobile game space since 2002. It started out developing for the PocketPC, now known as Windows Mobile. After almost a decade’s worth of experience in mobile gaming, he says there’s no comparison to Apple in the mobile space because “Apple gets what works from an end to end user experience perspective.”

Even though Joe hears from Google on a daily basis, he says he’s passing on it because games for Android haven’t sold in the past. Meanwhile, he’s had six no. 1 games in the App Store, generating big sales.

“I’m sure Google will catch up,” he says, but for now he’s focusing all his efforts on iOS.

His advice for developers trying to make games: 1. Make it accessible, 2. Simplicity is key, and 3. Design it for a mass market.
