METAVERSAL STUDIOS โFRANK FURTHERโ 1.2.1 NOW INCLUDES GAME CENTER
DECEMBER 23, 2010 Metaversal Studios, developers of games for the iOS platform including โBad Applesโ, โPeel Itโ and โGameRoomโ, are thrilled to announce their latest update to the tilt-control game โFrank Furtherโ. The biggest addition to the new version of โFrank Furtherโ is the integration of Game Center support, allowing fans of โFrank Furtherโ to sync achievements and rank on high score leaderboards through the native iOS online game network.
โFrank Furtherโ has always included support for OpenFeint, the widely popular online gaming network that connects players to friends and random opponents for multiplayer games. OpenFeint also gives game developers the opportunity to establish โachievementsโ or trophies that players can unlock by accomplishing certain game mechanisms or awards. Mobile gamers appreciate iOS games that offer such online features because this model mirrors online networks available in popular console games on the Xbox 360 and PS3 consoles.
While โFrank Furtherโ does not currently offer a multiplayer option, fans of the tilt-ยญ-control launcher game can now track high scores and unlock awards through both OpenFeint and Game Center. The developers at Metaversal Studios are excited for the potential of incorporating Game Center into other existing iOS games as well as new projects in the future.
Of the latest update to โFrank Furtherโ, Metaversal Studios Art Director Dave Landry says, โWe’re always trying to stay on the bleeding edge of the mobile gaming market, and we are looking forward to the wider gamer appeal that Game Center integration will add to our games.”ย Metaversal Studios develops games for iOS and other online game platforms. In addition to โFrank Furtherโ, games by Metaversal Studios include โBad Applesโ, โShave Me!โ, โGameRoomโ, โPeel Itโ, โTurkeys in Timeโ and the game that inspired โFrank Furtherโ, โHot Dog Down a Hallwayโ.
