Games, games, games: In his presentation from Mobile Monday Berlin, Matthias Hellmund introduces exozet games. The Berlin-based unit of exozet group not only develops games for mobile devices but also for platforms like PC and consoles. IT developer and Head of Mobile Matthias explains: „Exozet started in 2004 in the mobile java world with basic games on handsets. We’re now developing on a variety of java flavors covering BlackBerry, iPhone, Nintendo DSi and the upcoming Google android platform. Since Bluetooth is included, lots of games work with multiplayer mode across Nokia, Motorola and SonyEricsson handsets.“
For exozet games, internationalization is a huge topic and quite important for its distribution partners: Titles and in-game text as well as the game visuals are adapted to the corresponding markets. For the tricky Japanese market characters were changed to a more manga-style version. But one of the trickiest part for developers is to adapt games to the more than 600 handsets supported by exozet games. Therefore, the game development company developed a specific in-house tool which enables them to profile and test game-specific features on new handsets. Aside from premium commercial games, exozet also develops marketing games and applications for well-known top brands which include Bluetooth multiplayer and delivery as well online features.
