my java version of the game Tetris

[stratosb]

Hello everybody,
I have nearly finished my mobile java version of the game Tetris.

When I install the game to my mobile, I get the warning that the application is not signed. What can I do to make it signed?

If I want to sell my java game, which sites I can promote it to?

Thank you for your answers.

Hi Stratos, and welcome to the Forum Nokia Discussion Boards!

For signing, you need to buy a certificate from a trusted CA, like Verisign. But I do not think you really need to sign your MIDlet, if you reason would be just to get rid of the note during the installation...

Ok.
But if someone attempts to install my java game to his/her mobile and see the warning, might be discouraged to intall it.
What can I do to remove the warning completely?

How do I enter my details (name, website) to my java game? I want them to be shown when starting the game. I modified the jad file but it didn't work.

Hi stratosb,
There is a game standard followed by the game developer's and developing companies that they/it provides the information about the whole development team.
Now if you want to provide the same in game then you can add an item in your main menu called as "About".Then provide the total information under it.

Hope you understand what I am talking about..and how to do it..

Any more query will be answered..
Thanks,

Note that as far as I'm aware, EA (Electronic Arts) owns the rights to Tetris. So for a Tetris clone, especially if you want to sell it, you might want to do it differently enough or at least avoid calling it Tetris.

Petrib thank you for mentioning that.
By the way, what sites are there for promoting java games?

if u want to show ur company's name when the game is strated u might want to incorporate s SplashScreen which shows exactly that...
if u don't know what i am talking about use search with the splashscreen keyword.. if im not mistaken there is even an example in the wiki...
