Jungle Commando coming for BREW
by Jolex Del Pilar

Sunday, March 28, 2004

Mobile gaming expanding with BREW solution.

elkware Inc., a leading developer and publisher of mobile games, today announced “Jungle Commando,” its first title developed for QUALCOMM’s BREW solution.

“Jungle Commando” is an action-packed, combat game bringing frenetic arcade game-play to BREW-enabled phones. Featuring intense shooting and an arsenal of devastating weapons, avid players lead the lone mercenary as he battles his way through an army of assailants and the dangers of the jungle to foil a diabolical terrorist plot.

“Jungle Commando” will be available this spring via several U.S. operators offering BREW-based services.

“elkware is proud to bring more than a decade of expertise in mobile games to the BREW solution,” said Dirk Nagel, CEO of elkware Inc. “The BREW system provides us a new revenue channel in which we’re able to reach millions of savvy game players with our game offerings.”

“We’re thrilled elkware can begin to experience the value of the BREW system and tap into a large and growing market of global BREW-based services,” said Mike Yuen, director of BREW Developer Relations for QUALCOMM Internet Services. “elkware is a veteran in wireless game development with an outstanding track record for bringing top games to market. We are looking forward to the launch of 'Jungle Commando' and the many other BREW-based titles that elkware is planning on releasing.”

QUALCOMM's BREW system provides products and services that connect the mobile marketplace value chain, which includes application developers, publishers, content providers, device manufacturers, operators and consumers.

Publishers and developers worldwide are generating revenue from BREW-based applications and content, and 24 manufacturers have offered more than 120 BREW-enabled device models to consumers. Many very successful operators have deployed commercial BREW-based wireless data services, including Verizon Wireless, ALLTEL, Cellular One, MetroPCS, Midwest Wireless and U.S. Cellular in the United States; China Unicom, KDDI in Japan, KTF in South Korea, Hutchison Wireless CAT in Thailand, Telstra in Australia, VIVO in Brazil, BellSouth Chile, BellSouth Colombia, BellSouth Ecuador, BellSouth Panama, BellSouth Perú, Movicom in Argentina, Telcel in Venezuela, Verizon in the Dominican Republic, Verizon Wireless Puerto Rico and Pelephone in Israel.
