opp 9% igår, åpner opp 9% idag. Riktig nok ikke noe spesielt volum, men mye høyere enn den siste tiden.
En innside handel fikk vi og her om dagen, men var knyttet til opsjoner.
jeg venter på AR delen kommer med i testinga før jeg kjøper mer. Ser også ut som de sliter med tekniske problemer som må fikses før release. Blir TWD Our world og/eller andre prosjekter forsinket nå? Synes det begynner å haste litt.
hmm ny trailer med AR (kom ut i går)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x05s7YnQx24
edit:
Og tidspunktet for trailer passer utmerket med oppgangen i aksjen de siste dagene.
mysteriet er løst, selvfølgelig kommer oppgangen pga ny trailer med AR kom.
samarbeid med google maps
sitat, denne gang fra google:
To make it easy to get started, we’ve brought the richness of Google Maps to the Unity game engine. We turn buildings, roads, and parks into GameObjects in Unity, where developers can then add texture, style, and customization to match the look and feel of your game. This means that they can focus on building rich, immersive gameplay without the overhead of scaffolding a global-scale game world.

tok med litt presse, det er mange artikler der ute, men denne likte jeg, nyansert er den også:

Spennende! Da var det grunnen til oppgangen. De er ikke spesielt ivrig på børsmeldinger i Next Games, men men. Godt med litt news og hype før lansering. Nå må de bare se å få patchet inn AR i soft launch builden!
Ser ingenting i nordnet på “siste nyheter og pressemeldinger”. Mulig nordnet har fucka det opp eller next games ikke finner nyheten viktig nok, men den ligger under “news” hos next games. Irriterende, jeg ville nok ha kjøpt tilbake alt det jeg solgte hvis jeg hadde sett denne tidsnok.
Ja absolutt. Tror de kommuniserte i en Q rapport at all informasjon rundt spillutvikling og lanseringer skulle bli kommunisert over Q rapporter, så mulig de ikke følte at det var nødvendig å børsmelde.
Oppdatert på android 19 mars, fremdeles ingen AR…
litt presse:
“inexpensive” og “iphone” i samme setning. Hva skjedde her?
Så ut til at det kunne bli en interessant feature, så blir spørsmålet om de klarer å bruke den gratis PR-en til å få ut spillet.
endelig AR er med
kilde:
About F-ing time. Spent på feedback nå!
Har ikke funnet noe på youtube eller lignende, sensortower viser like lite interesse som før, utrolig nok, men det er ennå tidlig.
Ingen nye reviews.
Mulig det er på tide å få flere land med i testinga?
Og der kom Australia med
De har endelig aktivert IAP også ser det ut til. Første gang de er på revenue listen iværtfall.
rapport
kommentar fra CEO:
Chief Executive Officer Teemu Huuhtanen:
The number of active users in The Walking Dead: No Mans Land declined which
lead to a decrease in revenue. The main cause for the declined amount of
active users was weakened retention of players. The significantly lower
revenue coupled with the organizations growth led to a loss in the first
quarter. However, in relation to the resource and marketing investments to
the Walking Dead: No Mans Land during Q1, further developing the game was
still sustainable.
The investments in The Walking Dead: Our World, the Blade Runner game and
other upcoming games in the pipeline are reflected in our first quarter
numbers. During the end of 2017 and first quarter of 2018, Next Games has
shifted resources from the No Mans Land team to the Our World team and other
new projects. Next Games has actively recruited new employees during 2017,
but during Q1 2018 the staff grew only by five employees, thus the
recruitment pace has slowed down considerably.
During the first quarter, our main focus was to advance the soft launch phase
of The Walking Dead: Our World game. Following the closed beta tests at the
end of 2017, the game was published for technical testing in the Philippines.
After this the game was soft launched in Australia, where we have received
the first actual metrics and therefore we will be able to analyze the games
player behaviour, marketing performance and business potential. The game has
thousands of daily active users in the current soft launch phase, and the
preliminary, most important key figures have been promising.
As we gather more player behavior and marketing performance data during the
soft launch period, we will be able to estimate a more precise global launch
schedule. The estimate of the global launch schedule made before the soft
launch has thus been further defined and Next Games estimates the global
launch to take place in the beginning of third quarter 2018. The global
launch schedule will be further defined during the spring as we gather more
information from the test markets. The resources and time used for the soft
launch phase are crucially important so that we can be confident that the
marketing investments are profitable and the game is working as intended from
both content and business perspectives at the time of global launch.
We received a good selection of first reactions from players at the Game
Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco - the most important game
development event of the year, which gathered a record number of visitors, a
total of 28 000. Already a week before the conference, we announced our
partnership with Google Maps and a demo of the game was prominently displayed
at Googles GDC booth.
Next Games is firmly moving on to a new phase, as we publish new games to the
market and add more products to our development pipeline. When the
operational scale grows, it is necessary to invest in building adequate
processes and support functions for game development, as well as continuous
investments in commencing new projects. After the reporting period, in April
2018, Next Games has made changes to its management structure and appointed
new key personnel to support Next Games growth.
In February we celebrated the best workplaces at the Great Place to Work
Finland gala.
Our investments in our employees involvement with developing the company has
yielded us a significantly improved Great Place to Work ranking. From last
years 28th position we climbed to number 12, up by 16 positions. I am
extremely satisfied with this result as this is a good basis to move onwards
to launching new games and to a next phase of Next Games.
Ouch. Får nok en grei reaksjon ned idag.
Ja trøsten får være at jeg ikke sitter veldig tungt her lengre. Nå har de ansatt mange de siste kvartalene og åpnet nye kontorer og inntektene stuper. Ikke helt bra.
litt news om nye prosjekter:
During the first quarter of 2018, Next Games signed a deal to develop a new licensed game with
a yet unannounced license partner. One of the four games in development, is a project with
NBCUniversal.
NBCUniversal is known for multiple popular global movie franchises and tv series.
More details about the project will be announced as the project proceeds.
In addition to the company’s only live game, The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land, Next Games has
four new games in the development pipeline, with four different license holders.
edit:
tar meg en pause fra denne aksjen en stund. Startet veldig bra, med stor opptur, men nå er det blitt en større nedtur enn opptur…
