Dots is all set to take its company to the next level. The team at the back the popular mobile game declared on Tuesday that it has risen $10 million in the Series A funding from Tencent and Greycroft Partners.
The goal as an individual operation is to “build more and more games, faster. Their design team is setting up to create 3-4 more games in parallel. Hence, they will put out a lot of games this year, while expanding inside new markets such as China and new platforms such as Facebook.
The original Dots game began as a trial in user interface design, but it speedily turned into a genuine hit game. The key is that Dots is as uncomplicated as it is “dangerously addictive.” You have only 60 seconds to join colored dots and then watch out how your high score is compared with your friends in your social network.
That is debatably the biggest challenge that Dots is going to face as an individual operation. Some other gaming companies such as Zynga and Rovio have resisted carrying on pumping out hit games quicker than the interest in their prior hit games fades. This eventually means putting out a lot of sequels, as Dots had tried to do with the TwoDots.
Still, the owner was quite positive about the potential of Dots to construct a workable and different gaming company, shortly earlier than TwoDots was released in the market.
