With the increased popularity of the Android platform, getting your application noticed just seems to get harder and harder. Thankfully, PapayaMobile has created two amazingly easy-to-use, easy-to-setup options that will integrate your application to PapayaMobile's 3.5 million (and growing fast) user base.

For Developers - Social SDK:
Get the most out of your game by cross-promoting it on the Papaya network. With the Papaya Social SDK, your application is connected to Papaya's huge social community and can be seen by all of its users! It takes less than 30 minutes to integrate the Papaya Social SDK, and you even get a set of FREE social features for your application, including a worldwide leader board, forums and chat, internal mail/news system, and so much more! Best of all, the Papaya Social SDK is completely free!


For Advertisers - Offer SDK:
Rather than spending money on advertisements that may or may not increase exposure to your application, use the Papaya Offer SDK! Your game is made available to millions of current users on the Papaya network for FREE and you only pay if someone downloads your app. How much do you pay? A mere $0.30! That means cheap, cost-efficient, and the best rate of return possible! Best of all, it takes less than 5 minutes to get everything up and running!

Despite the iPhone's buttonless form factor and superior graphics, the Android platform is favored for its developer support and openness.

The tournament, which starts on July 11th at 8pm PST and ends at July 21st at 8pm PST, pits farmers against each other in an exciting 10 day competition. Everyone is given a level 15 farm and 100,000 cash to start off and when the tournament ends, two lucky farmers (one with the most cash and one with the most steals) will each be awarded the fantastic prize of 400,000 papayas!

 
 
Read the rules to learn more and sign up from your Papaya Farm app now!
 
 
How do I sign up? Is there a deadline?
 
Access the Papaya Farm app and click on "Tournament", then "Sign Up". Users can sign up at any time before the tournament ends.
 
 
Are there any fees to sign up for the tournament?
 
The tournament is completely free and any Papaya Farm players can join in!
 
 
What's in it for me?
 
The two farmers (one with the most cash and one with the most steals) when the tournament ends will be awarded 400,000 papayas each! The two second place winners will be awarded 50,000 papayas each, the two third place winners 20,000 papayas each, and farmers from 4th place to 30th will be awarded 5,000 papayas each!

Nothing! You will be given 100,000 cash and a new farm which starts at level 15. Growing and harvesting crops are just the same as in the actual farm game, but please note that in the tournament you can only see friends who also registered for the tournament.

Papaya will have a server maintenance from 00:00 - 02:00 PST on Dec, 24th.

 

 

During this period, the servers will be shut down and Papaya is not going to be available to the public user.

 

 

After that, Papaya will come back with better performance.

 

 

Sorry for the inconvinience.

Dear Papaya Users,

 

 

The Farm Game, the latest large scale game production has been launched and it is set to rock the whole game community. Have you ever thought of owning a farm but no land space in your house?

 

 

Fret not!

 

 

This game gives you the real feeling of owning a farm and a “hands-on” experience of managing and maintaining the farm. It may seem an easy job but it is not. This farm needs watering, pest control and even hiring a watch dog to prevent any loss of crops.

 

 

Besides the traditional harvesting crops, this game gives you the opportunity to trade, sell and even “steal” your friends’ crops.

 

 

This game is certainly for all ages. It is fun, surprising and even thrilling!

 

 

Come try this game out today!

Here are the Changes:

  1. Starting from today users will get 5 papayas every day when you use Papaya. Users can use the papayas to play Blackjack or buy costumes for your avatar.
  2. We also launched Papaya Windows Mobile. Now you can invite your friends who are using Windows Mobile phones!
  3. Since we made several major changes to the games, the Papaya Java 1.5 game lobby is not functional anymore. In order to play games, users will have to upgrade your application to Papaya Java 1.6.
  4. We released a new Blackjack game.
  5. We changed our game rewarding system a little bit. Instead of getting bonus papayas monthly, now anyone who gets the top position each day for any games (except for BlackJack) will get bonus papayas.
  6. The games on "Papaya Game Edition" in the iPhone app store are not available any more.

You can find a video clip of the new iPhone Papaya here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTHdXd7-gug

 

We just uploaded our new iPhone Papaya to the iPhone app store. This is going to be a new product in the app store, and the name of the application is called "Papaya". We revamped all the UI, and added avatar to the new version. At the same time, we are going to release a premium version for Papaya (Papaya Premium - $4.99). "Papaya Premium" is exactly the same as "Papaya" but once a user purchases "Papaya Premium", we will refill the user's account with 6000 papayas. The user can use the papayas to buy clothing and accessories for his/her avatar and use them as chips in the game "Blackjack".

 

Let us know if you have any questions or comments. We hope "Papaya" can be approved very soon.
