Canned Demo and Cell Font
Business Proposition:
Canned Demo was originally conceived as a business development
product. However, with ThumbJive's Cell Font, it allows game art
and graphic designers to validate their work on a wireless handset
without help from developers. It speeds up and reduces the cost of
building client software tremendously.
Technical Description:
Canned Demo and Cell Font provide an easy-to-use web application to
validate custom fonts and load images onto a handset. Issues such as
validating font metadata, specifying alpha/transparency in the image
palette, aspect rations and usability can all be solved by the
graphic designer alone without requiring communication cycles with
the development team. On graphics intensive application development
these tools can considerably boost efficiency.
