Amaya Toman Ua pāʻani paha ʻoe i ka pāʻani "2048"? Inā ʻaʻole, ua lohe paha ʻoe iā ia. He mea maʻalahi ia i ka nānā mua ʻana, akā hoʻohui nui, a ua loaʻa i kahi helu kupaianaha o nā mea pā a puni ka honua e hoʻolilo i kēlā me kēia manawa manuahi e hoʻoheheʻe ana i nā ʻāpana me nā helu. ʻO nā pāʻani maʻalahi ʻē aʻe e like me "ZigZag", "Twist" a i ʻole "Stick Hero" ʻaʻole i emi iki a kaulana.
ʻO ka ʻohana ke kumu
ʻO kēia mau hana haku a pau - a ma kahi o kanaono mau mea ʻē aʻe - ka hana a ʻelima mau kānaka mai ka hale hoʻomohala Farani Ketchapp Games. ʻAʻole pono lākou i kahi keʻena e hoʻomohala i kā lākou huahana. I ka hapaha hope o 2015, ʻo Ketchapp Games, e like me ka ʻikepili mai Hale Hoʻokele ʻO ka lima o ka mea hoʻolaha nui loa o nā noi iPhone ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa e pili ana i nā hoʻoiho. ʻO ka mea huna o kēia kūleʻa aia ma ka hui pū ʻana o ka ʻoihana akamai, nā manaʻo maikaʻi a me nā loea noʻonoʻo maikaʻi.
Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ʻo Ketchapp e nā kaikunāne ʻo Michel lāua ʻo Antoine Morcos ma 2014. ʻAʻole lākou i ʻike nui ʻia i ka lehulehu, akā ua hāʻawi ʻo Antoine i kahi ninaninau pūnaewele iā North. ʻO TechInsider.
I ka hihia o Ketchapp, aia ka ʻaelike nui ʻaʻole ia he kumu hoʻohālike maikaʻi. ʻO nā pāʻani i hoʻokuʻu ʻia e kēia hui Farani liʻiliʻi i ka honua ʻaʻole i hana maoli ʻia e ia. I kēlā me kēia pule, loaʻa iā Ketchapp ma kahi o hoʻokahi haneli mau makana mai nā mea hoʻomohala like ʻole, a koho i nā pāʻani i hiki ke lilo i megahit.
ʻO nā mea hoʻohana Ketchapp i kekahi manawa e hele i ka App Store e ʻimi ana i nā pāʻani a lākou e makemake ai e lawe ma lalo o kā lākou laikini. Ma kahi o kanakolu mau studio a puni ka honua e hana ana no ka "ʻohana Ketchapp". I nā manawa he nui, he pili kēia i ka maopopo ʻole a ʻaʻole ia e hana mau, akā ʻoi aku ka lanakila o Ketchapp ma mua o nā hāʻule. "Ua like ia ma kekahi ʻoihana," wahi a Antoine Morcos.
Loaʻa nā hits undisputed, no ka laʻana, ka pāʻani i ʻōlelo ʻia "2048", i loaʻa iā 70 miliona mau hoʻoiho. Ua hoʻoiho ʻia ʻo "ZigZag" e 58 miliona mau mea hoʻohana, "Stick Hero" e 47 miliona. ʻO ka huina, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā pāʻani i hana ʻia e Ketchapp ma mua o ka hapalua piliona.
Aia ka ʻāpana o ka kūleʻa i ke ʻano o nā pāʻani a Ketchapp i hoʻopuka ai i ka honua. "ʻAʻole mākou e hana i nā pāʻani no ka mea pāʻani maʻamau," wahi a Morcos. "ʻO ia ka hoʻolālā like a Atari i hoʻohana ai me kā lākou pāʻani arcade.".
Loaʻa iā mākou ka maʻi maʻi
Wahi a Morcos, maʻalahi ka hoʻolālā hoʻolaha pāʻani. Wahi a ka mea hoʻokumu o ka hui, ʻo ka hapa o ka ulu ʻana o ka kaulana o nā polokalamu Ketchapp he mea kūlohelohe, a ʻaʻole uku ʻo Ketchapp i nā hoʻolaha no kāna mau pāʻani. Akā, hilinaʻi lākou i ka hoʻolaha ʻana i loko o kā lākou pāʻani ponoʻī ma ke ʻano o nā pop-up. "Makemake mākou e hilinaʻi i ka ulu kūlohelohe o nā hoʻoiho," wahi a Morcos. "Inā ʻino ka pāʻani, ʻaʻole ia e laha."
Ke hoʻomaka ʻoe i kekahi o nā pāʻani a Ketchapp, ʻo kekahi o nā mea mua āu e ʻike ai he hoʻolaha no kekahi pāʻani mai kā lākou hana. No ka uku liʻiliʻi, hiki i nā mea hoʻohana ke wehe i kēia mau hoʻolaha, akā ʻo ka loaʻa kālā mai kēia mau hoʻolaha ka hapa nui no Ketchapp. ʻO ka hoʻolaha ʻana i kēia mau pāʻani - e like me ka hihia me nā polokalamu manuahi - hoʻomaikaʻi maoli ʻia, ma ke ʻano o nā pop-up a ma ke ʻano o nā hae liʻiliʻi ma luna a i lalo paha o ka pale.

Hoʻomohala ʻo Ketchapp i nā hana nui ma nā ʻoihana pūnaewele, he mea hana ikaika loa ia ma kēia ʻano. ʻO kā lākou ʻaoʻao Facebook leʻaleʻa ma mua o 2,2 miliona mau mea hahai a me nā hiʻohiʻona ʻaʻole wale i nā wikiō o nā poʻe e pāʻani ana i nā pāʻani i ʻōlelo ʻia ma mua, akā i nā GIF leʻaleʻa a me nā pane i nā mea kōkua. Hāʻawi pū ka hui i nā retweets i ka poʻe nāna e hoʻouna iā ia i kahi kiʻi kiʻi o ka helu kiʻekiʻe ma kekahi o kāna mau pāʻani.
Akā ʻaʻole manaʻo ka poʻe āpau i ka lono e pili ana i ka laha viral o ka kaulana o nā pāʻani Ketchapp. ʻO Jonathan Kay, ka mea hoʻokumu a me ka luna hoʻokele nui o Apptopia, ke kānalua nui nei i kēia kumumanaʻo. "Inā hana ka hoʻolaha organik i loko o nā mea hoʻohana i kēia manawa, no ke aha e hoʻolilo ai nā nunui e like me Disney a i ʻole EA i mau miliona kālā i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mea kūʻai hou?" Manaʻo ʻo Kay. "ʻAʻole wau e manaʻo he maʻalahi ia." "Akā, ʻaʻole mākou e pāʻani e like me Disney a i ʻole EA - hana mākou i nā pāʻani no kēlā me kēia kanaka, me ka hoʻopiʻi kiʻekiʻe," wahi a Morcos.
Eia naʻe, hōʻole ʻo Ketchapp i ka hāʻawi ʻana i kekahi ʻike e pili ana i kāna loaʻa kālā, e hilinaʻi ana i ka ʻōlelo a nā mea hoʻokūkū e hoʻāʻo nei e kope i kā lākou ʻoihana. Akā, e like me Kay, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka loaʻa kālā o ka hui ma mua o $6,5 miliona. "Aia nā hoʻolaha i kēlā mau pāʻani," hoʻomanaʻo ʻo Kay. "Hana lākou i nā miliona." Ua kapa ʻo Antoine Mocros i ka manaʻo o Kay "hewa."
ʻO nā kaua Clone?
Ke kū nei ʻo Ketchapp i nā hoʻopiʻi no ke kope kope ʻana i nā pāʻani i kēlā me kēia manawa. "He kūlana kaulana ʻo Ketchapp no ka hōʻaiʻē ʻana i nā mea mai nā pāʻani kaulana ʻē aʻe," i kākau ʻo VentureBeat hoʻoponopono ʻo Jeff Grub i ka lā Malaki i hala, me ka ʻike ʻana he ʻano like like ma waena o "2048" a me kekahi pāʻani kaulana i kapa ʻia "ʻekolu." Wahi a Grub, ua loaʻa pū ʻo Ketchapp i kahi waiwai nui mai ka "Run Bird Run", kahi i like me ka "Flappy Bird" kaulana. Ma ka huli ʻana, ua kuhikuhi ʻo Timothy J. Seppala o Engadget i ka like ma waena o ka pāʻani indie "Monument Valley" a me Ketchapp's "Skyward".
"ʻOiai ʻo Monument Valley kahi ʻike hoʻomaha, aneane like me zen, e pili ana i nā puʻupuʻu loiloi, ʻo Skyward kahi hoʻāʻo i kahi clone Flappy Bird i nā kala pastel a me kahi MC Escher aesthetic," kākau ʻo Seppala. Ua pane ʻo Antoine Mocros ma ka ʻōlelo ʻana he ʻano pāʻani ʻokoʻa loa ʻo "Skyward" ma mua o "Monument Valley" a ʻaʻole ia he ʻano like. Ke nīnau ʻia e pili ana i nā mea like i ka hoʻolālā ʻana, a me ka "2048" he kope kope a ʻaʻole paha, ʻōlelo ʻo ia "ua like nā pāʻani heihei āpau" a ʻaʻohe mea e hoʻopiʻi i kēlā ʻoiaʻiʻo. "He pāʻani hou ʻo Skyward i ʻike ʻole ʻia e kekahi ma mua," wahi a Mocros i kahi ninaninau me Tech Insider.
Ma waho o nā hoʻopaʻapaʻa āpau, me he mea lā ua ʻike ʻo Ketchapp i kāna hana. ʻO ke kumu, ʻo kēlā me kēia pāʻani hou loa mai kā lākou hana ʻana i ka piko o ka papa kiʻi App Store a kū i waena o nā pāʻani iPhone i hoʻoiho ʻia.
