Angry Birds: Flying High
If you haven’t tried Angry Birds on the iPhone or iPad you are missing out. Although not a 3D game, Angry Birds is an addictive romp that has had several of us playing for weeks. Mailchimp.com did a fantastic interview with the makers of this game which has some behind the scene footage. Hed has some interesting points on focusing on smaller games for a platform that has a global reach.
What was once a humble Finnish game about launching birds at pigs with slingshots has quickly become the insanely popular Angry Birds. We visited snowy Helsinki to chat with Rovio CEO Niklas Hed about the game’s careful design and mechanics, how it turned into a worldwide addiction, and what’s next for Angry Birds. See an early prototype of the game, and enjoy a rare opportunity to watch Rovio’s head designer Jaako Iisalo create a level.
