据美国证券交易委员会的资料显示,HTML5手机游戏开发商Moblyng工作室最近计划融资1090万美元,目前中已到位资金为750万美元。

Moblyng成立于2007年,位于美国加州雷德伍德城,原名为Flip Track,当时主要运营业务是向手机平台投放Flash幻灯片产品,业务转型后主要帮助开发商向各种手机平台移植游戏。

游戏邦发现,该公司网站上的信息表明,Moblyng有意成为社交网站、手机领域的顶级HTML5游戏开发商。HTML5是Flash的最大竞争对手,虽然目前大多数休闲游戏、网页视频都是基于Flash技术的产物,但在手机平台上(尤其是iPhone和iPad),Flash却难以施展拳脚,而HTML5却可以运行于多数手机浏览器。

Moblyng曾在今年初与休闲游戏开发商Playdom联手,面向WebOS、Symbian、黑莓、Android平台发行了《Mobsters》、《Sorority Life》等数款Playdom旗下的游戏,它与社交游戏开发商LOLapps也有业务往来。

据游戏邦了解,Moblyng还是Android Marketplace平台的主要游戏发行商之一,自主发行了旗下的《Dungeon Quest》、《M:Mafia》、《M:Racing》等游戏。该公司今年游戏总下载量超过500万次。Moblyng在协助其他工作室发行游戏时,会按游戏营收抽取一定的费用。

Moblyng在本轮融资之前,总共已获得1065万美元投资。这一轮融资的支持者是Mohr Davidow Ventures和Deep Fork Capital这两家公司,另外还获得了来自不具名天使投资者的50万美元资金。(本文为游戏邦/gamerboom.com编译,转载请注明来源:游戏邦)

Moblyng, a developer of games using HTML5 for mobile devices, is looking to raise about $10.9 million and has raised about $7.5 million of that so far, according to a recent filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Moblyng began life as FlipTrack in 2007, when it ported Flash slide shows to mobile operating systems. It then changed direction to help developers of mobile games quickly port them to other mobile operating systems.

The company’s site now indicates that it is looking to become the top developer of HTML5 games on social networking sites and mobile devices. HTML5 is seen as a large competitor for Flash, which most casual games are built on. Most websites that host videos also use Flash to play them. But Flash is lacking on some mobile devices — most notably the iPhone and iPad — while HTML5 is available in most mobile browsers.

The Redwood City, Calif.-based company teamed up with casual game developer Playdom earlier this year to publish Playdom games such as Mobsters and Sorority Life on mobile platforms such as the WebOS, Symbian, BlackBerry and Android. Moblyng has also teamed up with social game maker LOLapps, which makes lighthearted apps such as Roses for You on Facebook.

Moblyng also publishes its own games and is a top game publisher on the Android Marketplace. It made games like Dungeon Quest, M:Mafia and M:Racing. It also charges development fees when it co-publishes partner titles and gets a percentage of that revenue. Moblyng has had more than 5 million downloads of its games in the past year.

Moblyng has raised $10.65 million before this recent fundraising round. Moblyng is funded by Mohr Davidow Ventures and Deep Fork Capital. The company also received another $500,000 from unnamed angels.(source:venturebeat)
