New Zealand’s Innaworks has just revealed that Java-based games will come to iPhone. They have introduced a beta version of the software, which is considered to respond to demands for Java support on the iPhone by at least ensuring developers can tweak their titles to run on Apple’s platform.
It seems that the application is designed to instantly port a standard Java Platform, Micro Edition (Java ME) mobile game to iPhone and iPod touch without manual adjustments. The testing period has already began and the company is inviting developers to participate by signing up to try the software on the company website.
Java comes to iPhone
CEO of Innaworks, Stephen Cheng said: “With the expected introduction of iPhone’s AppStore in June, iPhone is emerging as a serious gaming platform. [...] We expect the early backers among game publishers to significantly benefit from their first mover advantage. alcheMo for iPhone will help mobile game publishers to reach the eagerly awaiting gamers with quality games on iPhone and iPod touch.”
AlcheMo for iPhone is equiped with a patent-pending optimizing translator to convert Java ME application source code to equivalent application source code for iPhone.
