Tapulous has largely failed to do anything other than Tap Tap Revenge. Twinkle, Tweetsville, FriendBook, Fortune, and Collage have all been abandoned. Riddim Ribbon hasn't seen any updates in months (not even adding new music tracks for download). To me, it's somewhat worrisome. And, of course this is completely subjective, but their music choice has gotten really bad recently. Lady Gaga, Coldplay, and Dance were all really good games with great music, and there were some nice indie tracks in Tap Tap Revenge 1. Now it's trending towards low quality pop music and it will only get worse when they start doing Disney artists. Again, that last part is 100% my opinion, and I'm not sure if it means much in terms of the company's success.
- Timothee 16y agoHum, I hadn't thought of Disney in terms of their record label, but more their movies, games, and associated franchises. As you're saying, this acquisition might just mean: foreach ($disney_artists as $artist) { make("TTR $artist->name"); } That'd be a bit sad.
- cmelbye 16y agoThat's what I'm thinking. Tap Tap Revenge is the only thing they've been able to pull of successfully, but it wasn't even their idea — they bought it from an iPhone developer from the pre-SDK jailbreak days when the game was called Tap Tap Revolution. All of their original ideas have not been nearly as successful. I can't see any reason other than talent and TTR for the acquisition.
