Nokia launched the worldwide Mobile Games
Innovation Challenge, designed to encourage development of innovative game concepts
to help propel mobile gaming with handheld devices into
a new and exciting future.
Sponsored by Nokia Publishing, the Mobile Games Innovation Challenge
invites developers to submit mobile gaming concepts to help drive
mobile gaming to the next level, relying on the advanced features and
functionalities of N-Gage compatible devices, and Java- or
Symbian-based Series 40 or S60 devices from Nokia.
Beginning immediately, developers wishing to compete for the Mobile
Games Innovation Challenge can submit their game concepts online at
http://developer.n-gage.com/innovation. Contestants are encouraged to
enter more than one mobile gaming concept, with the winners to be
selected by an external panel of mobile gaming industry experts on
the criteria of innovation, fun, feasibility of execution, and market
potential.
Gaming concept submissions will continue through August 20, 2008. The
winners will be chosen by the external panel of judges and announced
during a special award ceremony at the Nokia Games Summit in Rome,
Italy, October 29-30, 2008.
Deadline for submission of all applications is August 20, 2008 at
11:59 p.m. GMT. Further information on the registration process,
