Forget the sunshine of Silicon Valley or the buzz of New York. Based in the rainy North-West of England, British based Black Bull Studios has created Talaris™, an entirely new device-specific software engine that can generate ‘console quality’ 3D graphics and controls in games for the many of the modern mobile smart-phones.

Having been established for just over six months, Black Bull is certainly starting to make waves in the mobile smart-phone market, here in the UK and now worldwide.
Smart-phones using the Symbian and Series 60 operating system are the primary target for their advanced technology, with future game releases in 2006 planned to support the Microsoft Mobile and BREW operating systems.

Due to be launched later this month is the exciting first game from Black Bull Studios. A key component of its portfolio is the Talaris™ engine. It enables the ability to generate random environments with exceptional smooth play and has some embedded features such as a novel ‘time reversal’ control with 3D play, something thought never seen before in mobile phone based gaming.

Founding Director of Black Bull Peter Melling, commented, “The new team already has several years of combined experience in the mobile gaming sector. Our technology has enabled us to create a completely new generation of games” and there are high ambitions for Black Bull with a series of challenging smart-phone games scheduled for release throughout this year.

Peter also stated, “We’ve concentrated our efforts on quality 3D gaming and our first titles will be focused towards the traditional action genre. Our plan is to enhance Talaris and offer wireless entertainment to a much wider audience as smart-phones gain market share.”
With an initial focus on U.S., Canadian and European markets, the new brand will be reinforced by the fictional characters that will feature in its coming titles.
