iFone has licensed some mobile gaming technology from Terraplay…”The technology offered consists of a powerful lobby and community server supporting both single-player and multiplayer games, a cross-operator billing gateway for advanced in-game charging, and a highly optimised multiplayer server enabling all types of multiplayer games from turn-based to real-time action, on all operator networks…The lobby server includes features such as customised game rooms, high scores and associated tournaments, tools to up-sell, cross-sell and stimulate viral marketing and super-distribution, and an Asset Server for in-game download of digital assets such as language packs, new skins, tracks and levels.”
Mobile games increasingly require more than just a one-off download…the industry wants the games to offer continue revenue charges and be interactive.
