Unity celebrates 2 million registered developers, Hasbro buys Backflip Studios, LingPlay talks about cooperation with Kongregate, Fiksu sums up May – all this in our traditional Monday digest.

MondayLast Monday we started with a relatively large piece about innovation, endless games and Angry Birds.

We reinforced it with the news about the volume of the mobile commerce market. According to Gartner, they will increase by 44% worldwide and reach $235 billion this year.

TuesdayIn honor of its tenth anniversary, Apple has shared its own “story in pictures”, an infographic revealing milestone moments in the history of the App Store.

Quite unexpectedly, Hasbro acquired a controlling stake in Backflip Studios. What games the latter will make under the leadership of the main toy company of the USA is still unclear.  

Unity celebrated its 2 millionth registration on its website. However, there are significantly fewer active users of the toolkit – 400 thousand. 

WednesdayIn honor of the decade of the App Store, we remembered 10 games that had a fundamental impact on the current gaming industry.

And we also listened to Amazon, which told us exactly how to make money on IAP.  

ThursdayLast Thursday, an interview with LingPlay was released, dedicated to the search for a publisher.

However, the guys from LingPlay were lucky, they have already found their prince.

Magid made shocking figures, saying that tablet users spend the most money on games. And the difference is threefold.  

FridayThe second big news last week from Unity was that its owners were not going to sell the company for an insignificant $750 million.

According to rumors, they are also planning an IPO. 

Fiksu shared the good news: the price of a loyal user in the United States began to fall.
