We here at DroidGamers had been hinting about something coming up shortly after the first Android Gaming Challenge. Well the wait is over and I’m proud to announce another first not just for Android but for mobile gaming in general. What is it? It is the first ever cross-platform real-time multiplayer tournament and we have teamed up with SGN to bring this to life!
As the battle for smartphone dominance continues between the iPhone’s iOS and Android with sales and activations, users will soon be able to take the battle into the gaming arena thanks to OpenFeint’s newest update to their SDK. Any game developer can add the OpenFeint SDK to their game to allow iPhone and Android users to compete against each other.
Well it seems as though Skies of Glory’s release has gone exceptionally well and without a hitch, almost. Android users who own an Eris or Hero have been experiencing issues with the game which features live multiplayer across platforms so you can compete against iPhone users in real time. Official word just came down from SGN via their twitter account about the issue.
Skies of Glory Game Trailer
During Google I/O 2010 a game called Skies of Glory was shown running on a Droid. Since then we have also reported on Social Gaming Network, SGN for short, who developed Skies of Glory. Well this 3D aerial combat game is now available on the Android market and features cross-platform multiplayer which will allow you to dogfight and kill your iPhone enemies!
Social Gaming Network, or SGN for short, just recently announced that they have raised an additional $2 million dollars in second round funding. While good funding is great to hear about where developers are concerned, SGN has been focused a long time on high quality iPhone/iPad/iPod multiplayer gaming. They now plan to release titles for Android devices.
The crew over at Androinica got to demo this great looking game at Google I/O called Skies of Glory which is a 3D FPS aerial combat game set in a more world war era time. It supports both single player as well as multiplayer with up to 8 players at a time and the graphics looks absolutely slick. This is an iPhone port of the game over to Android.
