Olsen said heвЂ™s interested to wait and see how the next-generation of consoles handle digital content and that theyвЂ™ll get involved if itвЂ™s profitable.Д«ut just because Adult Swim is expanding and finding success (and lots of money) on Steam and iOS, that doesnвЂ™t mean itвЂ™s abandoning its Flash roots. If itвЂ™s something that we develop that we think would be particularly fun on a console with a controller - and we can get the support of the people that run those platforms - that would be great.вЂќ ItвЂ™s a matter of finding the right title. вЂњWeвЂ™ve looked at it before, and the numbers just didnвЂ™t quite work,вЂќ said Olsen. вЂњWeвЂ™re trying to enlist their support for a wider slate of games on that platform.вЂќДЄdult Swim is even interested in working with Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo on releasing some of its titles on the traditional home consoles. вЂњBased upon the success of Super House of Dead Ninjas, weвЂ™re definitely in contact with the folks at Steam,вЂќ he said. Those efforts include more mobile games and definitely more Steam releases. вЂњSo we definitely have plans to expand our efforts.вЂќ вЂњIt made sense to us that the Adult Swim audience and the Steam audience would overlap,вЂќ said Olsen. What happened is that it immediately went to the top of the games-under-$5 chart (Super House of Dead Ninjas now goes for $6.99). So we spent a very small amount of money to port it over there to just see what would happen.вЂќ вЂњOne of our game producers was working on the Flash version, and he thought it could be really popular on Steam if they added some new features. вЂњWith Super House of Dead Ninjas, it was just sortaВ opportunistic,вЂќ said Olsen. WeвЂ™ve had around 10 top 10 titles on mobile, which has been great.вЂќДЄnd now Adult Swim has its first Steam game in Super House of Dead Ninjas. вЂњWeвЂ™ve continued to publishВ aggressivelyВ on iPhone and on Android.

вЂњIt was 2008 or 2009 when we published our first game on the App Store, and that did really well,вЂќ said Olsen.

Endless runner Robot Unicorn Attack has more than 45 million plays, and thatвЂ™s just for the Flash game.ДЄdult Swim released Robot Unicorn Attack on Facebook, iOS, and Android as well, where it certainly racked up a few million more plays. Gamers played Amateur Surgeon, where you use common items to perform complex medical procedures, over 55 million times. вЂњSomething funny and original - something that has Adult SwimвЂ™s perspective and level of quality and creativity but isnвЂ™t just a marketing tool.вЂќДЄdult Swim has a stable of hugely popular Flash games, Facebook titles, and mobile apps.

вЂњThey perceive those advert-games as something less interesting than something that is like our shows,вЂќ said Olsen. ThatвЂ™s not bad - kids love that kind of stuff - but it doesnвЂ™t work with the cynical college-age-and-older crowd that Adult Swim targets. Nearly every game on is based on one of the shows. вЂњA lot of networks were doing show-based games, and we thought for our audience - which is a pretty savvy audience - that was a mistake.вЂќДЇor an example, look at Adult SwimвЂ™s daytime counterpart, Cartoon Network. вЂњWe started with the philosophy that we want to make games that are like our shows but not based on them,вЂќ Adult Swim Digital vice president Jeff Olsen told GamesBeat.
