Let’s start with an anecdote in OGQ office recently.
After the remote-work period ended a few days ago, the OGQ office has just come alive again. One day, I saw a developer excitedly doing something with his cellphone in a corner. I approached him quietly and found he was playing a game.
“What game are you playing?”
“No, I am not playing. I am working to connect a game platform to our service.’
An hour later, I saw him again. It was another game.Before I could even ask, he emphasized again “Well, don’t get me wrong, I am working on it :)”
So, what on earth are the games that have even captivated our developer?
Casual mini games: ready to play without installation
Phone Themeshop is an application popular among users in their teens and twenties. In addition to KakaoTalk themes and wallpapers, the community also provides a space for users to communicate with each other.
This time, the app launched a new Game Channel in the Play Zone for users to play casual mini games within the app.
The user-friendly Play Zone is open to public thanks to OGQ’s cooperation with the mobile Game Development Platform Cocos. In this place, you can find so many small games of various genres designed by Cocos developers: cutting fruits, playing basketball, doing jigsaw puzzle, becoming detective… Simply click an icon and you can enjoy all of them for free!
No wonder our developer couldn’t stop it 😂. Now come and check it out by yourself~
[PLUS] Are you still using basic themes in Kakao Talk?
The secret of Phone Themeshop’s popularity among young people has not been fully unveiled yet.
Kakao Talk is a communication app Koreans use everyday (just like Wechat and Messenger). Users can quickly be tired of its limited basic themes and require more styles. That’s where Phone Themeshop app come into play~ In this app, you can customize your favorite Kakao Talk themes with just a few simple clicks!
You can decorate all elements from the Friend List to Chat Rooms and Lock Screens to Personal Profile, with various contents（including wallpapers, photos, icons, stickers, etc.）. It feels fantastic when you can even set the color of chatting balloons by yourself! You can also buy cute stickers produced by OGQ’s Creative Cell Team, a group of professionals who have been designing Kakao themes for years. The stickers can directly be applied to decorate any page in your Kakao Talk. I strongly recommend this Theme DIY function. Just like the old saying goes, less is more, and fitness is all! :)
Come and enjoy unlimited mini games and Kakao Talk themes at Phone Themeshop now!
