Case Study: SuperGiant Games reinvents Bastion for mobile with Xamarin

SuperGiant Games reinvents award-winning console game for mobile with Xamarin

SuperGiant Games, an independent game developer, faced the challenge of bringing its acclaimed console game Bastion to iOS. They needed the mobile version to feel like a native, "home-grown" application, requiring the optimization of nearly every game element for a touch interface. To achieve this, they partnered with the vendor Xamarin.

Using Xamarin, the development team successfully rebuilt the game for mobile, creating a highly praised experience that included two user control systems. The results were exceptional: the app earned a 4.5-star rating from nearly 14,000 App Store reviews, received an Editor’s Choice Award, and was celebrated by WIRED as potentially the best console-to-tablet port. Xamarin enabled SuperGiant Games to exceed expectations and deliver a top-tier mobile gaming experience.
