Idea Fabrik Showcasing New Social Game Development Technology at GDC
HeroEngine Provider to Unveil New Game Development Platform
LONDON, ENGLAND - Feb 17, 2011 - Idea Fabrik Plc. (GB00B61CVK31, TI4.F)
today announced that it will be showcasing a new platform that represents a
major breakthrough in the development of social games at the Game
Developers Conference later this month in San Francisco.
According to a recent report from Business Insights, the social gaming
market encapsulates nearly 600 million users and was worth nearly $1.5
billion worldwide in 2010*. Similarly, market research firm Newzoo found
that roughly 90% of gamers in the United States play casual games**. Since
acquiring the HeroEngine platform for MMO game development last year, Idea
Fabrik's growing engineering team has been working in stealth mode to
create a better way for developers to bring their games into this
rapidly-expanding space.
GDC attendees interested in learning more, as well as taking a first look
at the new technology in action, can visit Idea Fabrik at booth #932 in the
South Hall of the Moscone Center from March 2-4.
