Gameloft to Publish Meteos and Luminies for Mobile Phones
Gameloft, a leading international developer and publisher of games for mobile phones, has signed an exclusive long-term agreement with Q Entertainment to develop and publish two puzzle games, Meteos and Lumines on Mobile Phones.
Meteos, the best puzzle game on the Nintendo DS and produced by Tetsuya Mizuguchi, is based on simple rules: groups of meteorite blocks are falling down on the planet, and players have to assemble them by color and fling them back into space. Originally released on Nintendo DS, the game proved to be as popular as its other handheld buddy, Lumines. Lumines is a puzzle game with a techno-Zen twist. Its slick and trendy design earned it rave reviews
Gonzague de Vallois, Gameloft’s Vice President of Publishing, commented “”We are very excited about this contract with Q Entertainment. Casual games are a strategic component for our sector, whose aim is to reach the widest possible public, and Tetsuya Mizuguchi’s games have fantastic potential on mobile phones.””
Lumines and Meteos will be made available on mobile phones in the first quarter of 2006.
