Is Gameloft Reviving Ludigames?

December 8th, 2008 by Arjan Olsder Posted in Companies & M&A | No Comments »

Ludigames
There are some interesting stories at the moment that surround the French mobile game developer Gameloft. It seems the latest bits we found on the company reveal the comeback of Ludigames, their old D2C brand.

It all started when we got some rumours that the company had started working with the brand again. When surfing to the Ludigames portal, we could not find anyting interesting at first sight though, except that the site seemed to be focused all on the iPhone.

A quick whois lookup showed us that the domain is hosted on Gameloft's own DNS servers and even uses Gameloft.com's SSL certificates which could tell us that direct payments could be handled on the site in the near future. On the other hand, the company just closed a deal with Netsize to handle Direct2Consumer sales. Ah well, they have been selling games on their site for ages of course so we can not really link the two up.

So what do you do when you end up clueless like this? You start up Google and suddenly things just get a bit more interesting. The search Giant pointed us directly into the website to the only page which seems publicly available at this time. It showed an iPhone app called Plasma Ball.

So what's next?
