Dave Hawkins on what’s ahead in 2020…

Exient’s founder and CEO Dave Hawkins speaks to Matthew Forde at PocketGamer.biz about events of the past year and the trends to dominate in 2020.
“What’s the thing you’re most proud of during 2019?
Without a doubt, the launch and success of Lemmings for mobile.
We’ve been working on the game for two years and to see that transfer into a commercial success has been a phenomenal experience.
What do you think will be the biggest trends in 2020?
We’ll see game publishers focus on increasingly honing core skill sets around their core platforms, and matching those to where the market opportunity lies for them.
I believe we’ve seen peak hypercasual and will see them (the publishers) transition to deeper gameplay and longer retention times in order to maintain success.”
