Peter Molyneux, head of the development studio Lionhead, said in an interview that mobile games feel “clunky” to him.
The interview, which was conducted by GamesIndustry.biz, deals mostly with Molyneux and other at Lionhead and their thoughts on the industry as a whole. One question is directly about the mobile industry, and Molyneux responds. He says there is “no doubt” that more games will be played on mobile, but offered sympathy to developers because mobile phones are not designed with games in mind.
“It’s down to some very simple things - these clicky buttons are useless for playing games, and it’s down to some other stuff, display drivers and hardware chips obviously. But even if you had simple buttons that would help a lot,” said Molyneux. “I think this is another thing where we’re, as an industry, not looking at the problem and saying “How can we make something that appeals to those people?”"
The full interview is available in two parts: part one and part two.
