It is great to pass long hours playing endless games on a PC or a laptop. But the thing is that it is difficult to drag one’s laptop every time you go hiking with friends or need to spend a day or to visiting elderly relatives. Some time ago you took your iPhone with you and plunged into the fabulous world just revealing conversation-supporting remarks, like: Hm… Did he really go there? Has Mrs. Hopkins son bought a new car? I say! etc.But even that was a bit disturbing. You could not concentrate and shoot or whatever you did well. It was very difficult on such a small display. With the advent of the iPad all those inconveniences are just ancient history. Due to a larger screen and higher resolution ardent gamers and just People-Who-Need-to-Kill-Some-Time can enjoy gaming application performance that has reached a new level of representation.�iPad application development has become the same popular surge as previously iPhone application development. Most of companies or individuals engaged in that pious activity used to have a great expertise in iPhone application development. Now preparing new app releases for eager iPad admirers they have to keep in mind not only the similarity of the two devices, conditioned by the same set of development tools – iPhone SDK 3.2., but substantial differences between them as well. The differences seem to be not at the technical stage but at the representation and performance level. A larger screen, higher resolution and ability to use both hands contribute to the complexity of the game as well as to its attractiveness thus increasing downloads and earning green.�The named technical advantages may change the inner structure and logics of games, speeding them up, giving more space for extra objects to watch, sophisticating controls and refining a user interface. So one will get a more vivid and attractive game that will ensure that he or she has completely lost touch with reality.The major concern which may arise is whether it is reasonable to develop a completely new game from scratch, working out its plot, inner structure, graphical design features and so on. To my mind iPad supported interface (which takes into account a larger interface, a higher resolution and a unique form features) is desperately needed for some apps that already enjoy great popularity.�So, all that we need from iPad developers is not a stunning brand-new game that will overhaul the fan’s community and hits tops of downloading at the Apple App Store but a rather descent old-fashioned Scribble or Geometry Wars that fit nicely into the new iPad environment.
