OpenFeint Gold Program Tries to Help Market iPhone Games
Last month, Aurora Feint Inc added a developer spotlight that showed select third-party games on OpenFeint.com. In the company’s latest effort to help other iPhone developers better market their games, the social platform has introduced the “OpenFeint Gold Program.”
Chosen iPhone titles will be “extensively promoted by Aurora Feint Inc. on OpenFeint.com, on the OpenFeint dashboard, in other games, and on partner websites.” The recognition program will be on a monthly basis, and the company is taking submissions for December.
In fact, the first game to showcase, for November, on OpenFeint Gold is the award winning title, Fieldrunners from Subatomic Studios. Deceptively, simple in its design, it has been described as the Tetris of tower defense-style games. It features beautiful visuals and easy to learn game play, it is easy to see why it was awarded the “Best Mobile Game” and the “Excellence in Art” awards for the 2009 Independent Games Festival; not to mention it has nearly 9000 five star user ratings. The game developer has also stated that it will be “refreshing” the title with more “platform-specific features and content” this holiday season.
