STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Sept. 5, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Mumbai-based mobile games publisher Indiagames has selected Swedish middleware provider Terraplay to supply server solutions for its offering of connected and multiplayer gaming. Indiagames will launch several connected and multiplayer games later this year using the recently launched MOVE 3.0 platform from Terraplay. MOVE 3.0 will allow Indiagames to use features such as in-game community with gamer tags, high score, tournaments, matchmaking, game rooms; turn-based and real time multiplayer, and in-game content download.
The system will be supplied to Indiagames as an ASP solution called MOVE Connect, which includes hosting, monitoring and maintenance.
"Indiagames is positioning itself as a leader in connected gaming," says Vishal Gondal, CEO of Indiagames, "and Terraplay's MOVE Connect solution offers us a low touch solution that is very easy to get started with, yet powerful."
"We are excited to take on the responsibility to provide and operate the game servers for Indiagames," says Sven Halling, CEO of Terraplay, "and we will work closely together with their development teams to facilitate all aspects of the rollout of the games across many markets."
