TrayGames launches Developer Challenge 2006
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TrayGames announces the first annual TrayGames Developer
Challenge, a competition for "pick up and play" casual games
using their multi-player platform. Launched in conjunction
with its new developer support site, the Challenge offers a
$10,000 Grand Prize.
"This is a great opportunity for developers to explore the
possibilities offered by multi-player game play at the scale
of a casual game," says Joe Pantuso, CEO of TrayGames. "We
expect to see creative entries that push the edges of current
game genres. This challenge gives us the opportunity to
promote the capabilities of the TrayGames platform and
attract new developers to the idea of producing games for the
Network."
The $10,000 Grand Prize consists of a publishing contract for
the winning game with an advance. In addition to the Grand
Prize winner, all finalists will be awarded publishing
contracts with revenue share and advances attached to them.
All Challenge submissions that are accepted for publication
will be available to play on the TrayGames Manager.
Deadline for Challenge entries is September 5, 2006.
