Arkadium unveil analytics tool

al games publishers Arkadium have developed an analytics tool for Windows 8 to help measure the success of their products.

Arkadium, founded in 2001, released four games on the platform in October 2012, and with 15,000 titles available on the market felt the need to track the performance of their own.

The firm are also open to other developers using the tool, which is currently in beta testing.

Arkadium chief executive Kenny Rosenblatt told GamesBeat: “We recognised games as a service are dependent on real-time data so you can make changes. There aren’t as many options on Windows 8 yet because the traditional analytics tool makers aren’t on the platform yet. We are developing our own tool and we want to share it with other developers who don’t want to build one themselves.”

Arkadium’s Windows 8 titles include Mahjongg Dimension, Minesweeper, Taptiles and Solitaire.
