IDEA Games vient de nous envoyer le communiqué de presse concernant la sortie de Sprocket. Extrait :
Nous avons développé Sprocket afin de distribuer les jeux d’IDEA Games à travers le monde, sans limitation de dates ou de pays. A partir de maintenant, vous pourrez tous acheter nos jeux, peu importe où vous habitez ! […] Prochainement, nous proposerons Alpha Prime, le FPS de Black Element, […] ainsi qu’ArmA: Armed Assault, le nouveau titre de Bohemia.
Est-ce que ça signifie qu’Armed Assault sera disponible avant sa sortie française en février ? Malheureusement, c’est peu probable. L’éditeur français nous expliquait récemment que Bohemia n’avait pas le droit de sortir ArmA sur le net, à part pour la version tchèque du jeu.[–SUITE–]
Press Release
IDEA Games is launching online distribution!Prague, Czech Republic – 21st November 2006
IDEA Games – gathering of independent developers – is proud to announce the launching of the online distribution system Sprocket at www.my-sprocket.com!
“The main reason we developed such a tool was to distribute the games of IDEA Games’ members to players around the world, without the limitation of release dates or territories, » said Martin Klima, Lead Producer at IDEA Games. “From now on you are able to buy our games no matter where you live! »
The first titles available from launch are the first two games of a sci-fi trilogy – UFO: Aftermath and UFO: Aftershock by ALTAR Games and the fantasy action game Shade: Wrath of Angels by Black Element Software.
“The biggest problem, even for best selling games is shelf space, » comments Jiri Rydl, Marketing Manager at IDEA Games. “After a few weeks your game is squeezed out by newer titles on the market, no matter how successful you are. »
