Google Play will feature more game categories in 2014
The application market for the Android platform is already gearing up for next year. And it is that new parameters have been known that are being prepared for 2014 with which this tool would become somewhat more specific to time to order its contents Specifically, it would be the introduction of new categories in the field of games, allowing to specify their characteristics or the kind of entertainment it is.A good way to facilitate the discovery of new titles more similar to the user's tastes.
The news comes after the new publication of Google on the page for developers Here they indicate that the changes in Google Play will take place in the month of February 2014 , although for this it is necessary to start carrying out tasks right now. In this way they urge developers to tag their games with the new categories that will be included so that everything is ready in 2014.
Thus, any user who accesses the category of Google Play Games right now finds eight subsections among which are all titles. A perhaps inaccurate list which also includes the animated wallpapers and widgetsTypes of applications that have little or nothing to do with gaming. With this, the user can access the application store and move comfortably through these subcategories according to their tastes, finding games or applications focused on these themes.
However things will change from February 2014, almost doubling the subcategories until you reach a total of fifteen. Thus, from Arcade and Action new ones arise such as: Action, Adventure, Arcade, Music, Role, Simulation and Strategy Card Games and Casino is further subdivided into Cards and Casino Casual, for its part, will offer Casual, Board, Family, Trivial and WordsFinally, Thinking Games and Puzzles, Racing andSports remain unchanged.
This gives rise to a much more complete category, where more sections mean easier to find the desired content, although it also more menus and screens to move through. Something that users of Android devices will be able to check out starting next year.
However, these changes also suggest the possible preparation of something bigger through Google Play Or, perhaps, adaptation to the increasingly widespread videoconsoles centered on the Android platform, which from the year that comes will have new categories to find more easily the games and content for them. Some changes that end users will still take time to verify but that developers should start taking into account to be able to participate in the new changes when they are available around the month of February of next year.
