Offscreen Technologies, specializing in high quality touch-optimized apps for Symbian and Maemo touch devices, is a prolific developer with over 50 apps, games and ebooks on the Ovi Store to date.

Part of the secret behind the Finnish company's breakneck pace for new product releases is its work on mobile development tools for Symbian platforms. The company has developed an integrated development environment (IDE) for Nokia Symbian (5.0 and 3.x) GUI-based applications. Called Origo IDE, it allows developers to quickly write code and automatically create native Symbian Installer files, all made possible by leveraging the capabilities of Nokia's Qt SDK. The company has been able to dramatically increase developer productivity and reduce time-to-market. One of the company's most popular apps, Labyrinth Touch, was developed in only five days.

Several of Offscreen Technologies' apps have been downloaded more than a million times each, including Level Touch, Bright Light Touch and Labyrinth Lite Touch.

In addition to developing their own apps and games, the company has released a line of ebooks that republish public domain works in an attractive and interactive mobile format. Titles include such classic works as The Hound of the Baskervilles, Pride and Prejudice and Treasure Island.
 
 

"By distributing our apps through Ovi Store by Nokia, Offscreen Technologies is able to further extend the popularity of our titles to Nokia users around the world. We've seen our apps downloaded 25 million times and we look forward to seeing more delighted Ovi Store users enjoying our apps around the world," said CEO Harri Myllynen of Offscreen Technologies. 

Offscreen's 50+ applications are available for most Nokia Symbian (5.0 and 3.x) devices, like the 5530 XpressMusic, 5800 XpressMusic, N97, X6 and N97. Most apps and games are available for free or as a Lite trial version from Ovi Store with premium apps and games costing up to $2.99 (USD).

I've not tried any ovi apps yet, but will be sure to give it a go soon. That does seem to be a pretty good price for the premium apps, free is better though.

Great cross-platform apps.

I tried several offscr games on my N900 and I really like them. Airport is my favorite one.
I just realized they are Qt apps as soon as I've seen the same games running on some symbian mobiles.

great cross
