YouTube Playables

Juli Clover:

YouTube is the latest company to introduce mobile games that are available outside of the App Store, today announcing the official launch of “Playables” in the YouTube app.

[…]

YouTube is focusing on “lightweight, entertaining games,” so many of the options are games that are meant to be played for a short period of time rather than longer games that you might find on the App Store.

YouTube:

Playables are a fun, interactive way to experience YouTube — with lightweight, entertaining games like Angry Birds Showdown, Words of Wonders, Cut the Rope, Tomb of the Mask, and Trivia Crack and so many more that you can play right now.

You can also save your game progress and track your all-time best scores.

YouTube Playables: for when you have no wherewithal to switch to a different app, and no attention span to invest in any significant gameplay.

“Playables are a fun, interactive way to experience YouTube”—what does that even mean? What does Angry Birds have to do with YouTube?


This is what happens when you expect constant growth, but everybody on earth that has access to it already uses your product?


I'd love to talk to the original founders of YouTube and ask them if they regret selling out or not.

What a dumpster fire that site is now. Not to mention that they are now engaging in outright theft.
