Selatra launches exclusive FlashLite games

Company adds three new games to Flashlite catalogue

March 13, 2007: Selatra, the global distributor of mobile Java games, announced today the availability of the three exclusive new games from its Flashlite catalogue.

Sean Cronin, CEO of Selatra confirmed that Meteors, Reversi and Invasion, all gaming classics, are now available and he said, Selatra would be announcing further titles shortly.

"We foresaw the great impact FlashLite would have on the mobile gaming market and committed early to producing a comprehensive catalogue with content developed aggressively through our partner programme," said Cronin. "The latest figures from Adobe show that shipments of Flash-enabled devices have passed the 200 million mark, confirming we were right to have faith in the market. We firmly believe casual gaming will grow strongly as consumers seek to bring their PC console experience to the mobile and play their favourite flash games while on the go."

The three new exclusive titles available from today in the Selatra Flashlite range are Meteors - a shoot-em-up space game, Reversi (also known as Othello) the instantly recognisable puzzle game and Invasion, a classic style alien shooter game.

FlashLite is a key technology for developers seeking to offer next generation mobile content. Over 30 Nokia models already include the FlashLite Player, allowing millions of customers to access the applications offered in Selatra's dedicated FlashLite catalogue:

"By working with Selatra, FlashLite developers can be confident their games will have the widest possible reach and revenue earning potential, as they tap into markets which

they otherwise might not have been able to access with their games," Cronin said.

Selatra has partnered with Buffalo, NY based JRVisuals Studio, a best of breed developer who has delivered some of the most played Flash games on the Internet to bring these titles to market:

"We have been creating games on the Flash Platform for as long as it has been possible," said Jose R. Rodriguez, Managing Director of JRVisuals. "The move to mobile with

Flashlite was a natural one and working with Selatra has made it possible to do so ahead of the curve."

All games are available on GSM and 3G networks. Selatra's full range of games is available on www.selatra.com
