5 Reasons Facebook Developers Should Attend InterPlay
May 20th, 2008
This Thursday I’ll be moderating the Social Games Everywhere: Methods for Distribution and Development panel at the InterPlay: The Business of Games on the Social Web conference in San Francisco.
The InterPlay blog already covered why game developers should attend InterPlay, so this morning I asked the question from the other side - why should Facebook application developers attend? Here’s 5 reasons:
1. Games engage and retain users. (A lot better than most applications do.) Learn more about how to make your application keep your audience glued.
2. Good games are hard to design. See 1.
3. It’s a good time for social game developers to raise money. Have you heard about the Series A’s SGN, Zynga, and Serious Business raised?
4. New people are playing games for the first time on Facebook. Find out who. (Hint: it’s not your 16 year old cousin staying up all night.)
5. Games are just more fun. Who wants to work when you can bite more chumps?
Look forward to seeing you all there!
