I was taking a look at that the other day. It does look like a nice interesting product. And I do believe it's easy to sell your game creations easy with mobile games.

It was a year or two ago, I checked out a place called mforma, they had a sdk for mobile game development, and would even help you sell your games. I didn't really get in to it at the time.

What I'd love is a LICENSED way to port my games over to a Gameboy Advance. I'm dreaming...

Anyone know if there's an easy way to find out the hardware specs on phones nowadays? My phone is caveman ancient--- do they publish RAM and CPU specs?

Their probably is a way but it is probably way to advance and way to expensive for you. j/k No offense, I am sure you are a great programmer and I can tell that from your Wordtrix game.

Well if it were for Palm Os, I think it would be cool, I have a zodiac so I'm hoping to dev for it, but there aint much choices for deving for a mobile platform, other than C and C++.

Guns arnt the problem, people are the problems, shoot all the people and guns arnt a problems anymore.

Definitely, I'd certainly buy an easy to use tool for making Palm OS games but I most likely wouldn't pay for something so I can make small games for my cell phone.

Torrey: That's a pretty cool link. Seeing as how their SDK is free and they publish your game for you (depending how good the game is of course), it seems like a win-win situation. Looks like they're partnered with Bell, AT&T, Rogers, Telus, and others.... hmmmmm....

it seems pretty cool but how would you get it to the phone and Id get it too but the only reason iam not is because of the price I think $60 bucks is too high I say 30 - 50 is more reasonable
