5th International Mobile Gaming Awards open for Submission
July 18, 2008 on 6:43 am | By paul.gadi | In Achievements, Announcements | No CommentsThe International Mobile Gaming Awards (IMGA) team is inviting all mobile game developers to submit a contest entry in this year’s IMGA. Calling all those who have the next great mobile game brewing in their studios: now’s your chance to show the world that we have what it takes to compete globally in terms of game design and development.
Previous winners of the IMGA include Anino Mobile, one of the GDAP core companies, for their entry Anima Wars. The game won the IMGA Best in Connectivity Award in 2006. Anino Mobile was again nominated for two more awards for IMGA 2007.
Good luck to all entrants and here’s hoping that this year we’ll have another Filipino game company competing head-to-head with international mobile game studios such as Konami, Digital Chocolate and Nokia.
