Los Angeles (September 3rd, 2008) – VastPark, a white label virtual world platform company, unveiled plans today for a Developer Program aimed at the needs of professional virtual world developers.
VastPark is now accepting registrations from virtual world developers with a strong track record in virtual worlds, games or related fields to join their developer program.
Bruce Joy, CEO and founder of VastPark explained “We have already had two development companies’ sign up before we have even announced the program, Involve3D from the US and Second Interest from Europe.”
The irony is that this initiative has been driven by developers rather than VastPark.
“We were asked repeatedly if we had a developer program in the works,” said Bruce Joy.
“At the time we hadn’t considered it a high priority but we’re a white label software company, so it makes perfect sense to help developers grab our software and sell it to customers.”
Registration opens today. Developers can find out more information by visiting the Developers section of www.vastpark.com.
Benefits of the program include listing in VastPark’s “Find a developer” pages. Developers can expect to receive credible referral enquiries from prospective clients with real budgets for building virtual worlds, games and related applications.
Steve Eagle, VP of Strategy and an investor in VastPark is enthusiastic about some of the other aspects of the developer program. “There’s going to be a range of other benefits over time, including early previews of some of our open source code as well as selective access to our commercial source code, and importantly we will be offering discounts or commissions on license sales. Also our official developers will have the confidence in knowing they can arrange priority support contracts for their projects. We want to help them succeed in every way, especially financially.”
