The Philippines is once again in the spotlight on the international game development stage as the mobile game “Bounce.io – Balls vs Balls” developed by Mochibits was featured as the first Filipino-made game in Google Play’s All-Star Indie Game Zone.
Google Play Indie Games Accelerator (IGA) program granted Howard Go’s MochiBits as one of its pioneer participants during South Korea’s popular annual international game conference G-STAR held last December.
