Fathammer has signed a deal to provide 10 3D games for SK Telecom’s new game phones. Perhaps more importantly the contract also includes Fathammer’s X-Forge Game Development System and support for selected 3D game developers who create content for SK Telecom, an about face for the company which previously had a policy of not sharing its development environment with the marketplace. “The policy reversal is a result of last year’s decision to become a mobile game publisher instead of technology developer.”
Matti Airas, CEO of Fathammer, also predicted that 3D games would pass 2D games on the mobile handset by next year. “In mobile games we are in the same position where pc and console games were in the early of mid 1990’s. That’s when graphic accelerators entered to market and made it possible to develop good quality 3D games. After that 2D games virtually disappeared,” Airas said.
