HTML5 iPortal starts simple
PocketGamer.biz has found what may be the first HTML5 game portal for the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad and Android. DS Effects has launched a white label portal with HTML5-based games, apps, and virtual pets to play with.
All of the games are free and can be quickly “installed” on your iPhone by virtue of adding it to your iPhone’s homescreen. The games are simple, without even much in the way of explanation or instructions, but easily played. They do come with advertisements when accessing the game.
DS Effects is an Italian company that also promises a fully customizable solution for content owners who want to bring their brands to the iPhone via HTML5. They promise access to alternatives to the App Store and other portals. This could be the beginning of a large amount of content that consumers could access in locations outside of the App Store. The iPhone version has already launched, but PocketGamer.biz says that the Android version will be coming in a few weeks.
