Along with the rise of smartphone platforms like Android, we have seen the rise of Application Stores. Here, any developer can showcase his application or game, and people from across the world can download and use them. These repositories are extremely popular. For example, Apple’s App Store has got over 25 Billion downloads. It is not often that you see Indian Game Developers make it big in the intentional arena. Traditionally, Indian Game Development have restricted themselves to Cricket and Bollywood games. Some applications like Mundu TV have made it big in the international market, but they are a vast majority. Now, we see another Indian Developer, Games2Win making it big, this time for a game: Parking Frenzy. Game2Win’s game, Parking Frenzy, has climbed to 7th Place in the ‘Top Free Games’ List of Android Market’s (USA). In the same list, we see high profile games like Angry Birds, Where’s My Water? and Fruit Ninja. It is the first time an Indian Game has reached such acclaim, especially in a non-local market. Says, Alok Kejriwal, CEO of Games2win, “ I am happy that we have scored this hit, but honestly it’s about time many more Indian Gaming Companies began featuring in the top ranks on the Android and iOs Apps market places. Parking Frenzy is NOT a Bollywood or a Cricket Game. It’s a game about parking cars in an increasing level of difficulty. That’s a game that people like to play all over the world, not just in India. And that’s also why we have our biggest downloads from the USA, UK, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands. Going forward, we are aggressively creating more ‘global’ titles for Android and iOs, with the sole intention of being a Global Gaming Company, born and bred in India !” Here are some statistics relevant to Parking Frenzy: The game was launched 10 days ago. In 10 days, it has garnered 2.3 Million downloads. It has been played 8.5 Million times. 350k (3.5Lac) Daily Active Users (DAU’s) So its not just that Parking Frenzy has got a large number of initial downloads, but it has a large group of people playing the game daily, which speaks of its gameplay. We are thrilled with Kejriwal’s attitude of being a Global Gaming Company and we feel more and more Indian firms need to follow suit for us. Not to forget Game2Win also secured 6 million dollar of funding in the year 2011. You can try out Parking Frenzy on your Android device by downloading it for free from here .
