Motorola is to make the Antix Game Player client available for its UIQ devices.
The game playing engine will initially be available to MOTO Z8 and MOTO Z10 users as a simple download. Later this year it will be embedded inside the devices.The Antix Game Player has been designed to make content written in C and C++ portable across different platforms. The vast majority of console games are written in C and C++ but cannot easily be ported for mobile. Antix claims to resolve the fragmentation problem without compromising performance, meaning console publishers and developers can mobile handsets without worrying about excessive porting, certification and signing costs.
Francis Charig, CEO of Antix Labs, said: "We have been determined to meet consumers’ expectations in mobile while simultaneously creating the development and financial environments required to attract the industry’s leading publishers and developers. These have been neglected concerns for far too long and we believe Antix will be a catalyst to help the mobile game industry flourish.”
Developer kits will be available from Antix to registered Antix developers.
