“After announcing our exclusivity with Amazon, our fans outside of the US became very vocal about how this arrangement delayed the international release of Fieldrunners HD. “Once again, Amazon has shown that they care about our fans and our studio,” said Alec Shobin, Marketing and PR Manager of Subatomic Studios. Amazon listened, eliminating their international exclusivity agreement so that Fieldrunners HD could launch on the same day in the Android Market for fans outside the US. Upon this news International fans voiced their concerns, since the Amazon Appstore is not available outside the US. After hearing about the situation, Amazon approached the studio with a two week exclusivity agreement in exchange for allowing Fieldrunners HD to launch for free in the Amazon Appstore. Subatomic Studios had originally planned to release Fieldrunners HD for free in the Android Market, however their agreement prohibits developers from launching a game for free then transitioning it to paid. Hitting both marketplaces in the same day allows us to reach our whole, international fan base and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without the support of both Amazon and Google.” “Releasing in the Amazon Appstore in the US while simultaneously launching in the Android Market for international customers is something we are very excited about. “Amazon and Google have been very helpful,” said Jamie Gotch, CEO of Subatomic Studios. The game will be available to US based Android users in the Android Market two weeks after its initial launch. After the first 24 hours, the game will continue to be sold in both stores for $2.99. Fieldrunners HD can be downloaded for free for the first 24 hours in the Amazon Appstore, while non-US Android owners can grab the game for $1 for the first day in the Android Market.
