Today a number of mobile phones are equipped with different networking technologies such as Bluetooth, GPRS and 3D with the ability to connect to other mobile phones and play games. With this, mobile games are becoming increasingly popular. There is boost in the demand for game designers and developers to create mobile games, however game development compels a large amount time, effort, money and resources. The proponents designed a system to help developers and non-developers use an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) to create two-dimensional, multi-player games with top and sided views for mobile devices. The research provided ways on how the connection between mobile devices may be implemented to cater to multiplayer games. The produced system may be used by any developer to create multiplayer games limited to phones powered by Windows Mobile. Further studies may include developing games for other platforms such as Symbian and Java.
