Angry Birds

Posted by Khalil in Games | Reviews | Technology

In these two months this game Angry Birds almost in most of the iPad’s and iPhone’s.

Rovio company is the developer of Angry Birds game. Rovio were sown in 2003 when Helsinki University of Technology students Niklas Hed, Jarno Väkeväinen, and Kim Dikert participated in a mobile game development competition sponsored by Nokia and HP. A well-deserved victory with a real-time multiplayer game called “King of the Cabbage World” compelled the trio to set up their own company, Relude. King of the Cabbage World was sold to Sumea (now Digital Chocolate), and renamed to Mole War, which became the first commercial real-time multiplayer mobile game in the world.

In January 2005, Relude received its first round of investment from a business angel, and the company changed its name to Rovio Mobile. Rovio transformed into a full-fledged developer and publisher of 2D Java games, and increased its studio headcount to 30. The initial focus was on creating hard-core gamer titles covering genres such as survival horror, strategy and RPG. In September 2005, Rovio launched its first big titles, Darkest Fear and War Diary: Burma, the former instantly gaining critical acclaim for its innovative game design.

In January 2006, Rovio acquired Pixelgene, a Helsinki-based developer of 3D mobile games that was working on projects for Digital Chocolate and Mr.Goodliving. With the ability to create both 2D and 3D games, Rovio branched out into external development services, as well as continuing to develop and publish its own titles. The first outsourced title, Need for Speed Carbon for Electronic Arts was released in October 2006 and was awarded 9/10 by Pocketgamer. The year 2007 saw the release of Burnout (also for EA), SWAT: Elite Troops (Vivendi Universal Games), and Collapse Quest (Real Networks).

In 2008, Rovio developed Bounce Boing Voyage for Nokia’s N-Gage platform, and published its most casual title to date, Totomi, in both Flash and iPhone versions.
