We are looking to port an existing PC game written in VB6 to the Blackberry platform, with support for the latest models like the Pearl and 8800. It is a turn-based strategy game with static graphics (no animated sprites or collision detection). Players send turn information back and forth by email or device-specific data transfer. The game has already been ported to the Pocket PC format. In addition to programming, the applicant will provide design input to adjust the game interface, as well as input into the choice of devices to support based on their potential for successful adaptation. The application must be tested and prepared for purchase and installation by end users. Proposed Budget: $3,500-5,000 negotiable Timeline: 6-8 weeks Location: Off-site Other: Legal US residents only, please.
