Representatives from Greystripe, owner of free, ad-subsidized mobile game portal GameJump.com, have announced that the company has signed deals with seven more mobile game publishers to distribute their titles on the portal, bringing its total number of partners to 35. Titles added to the portal thanks to the new distribution agreements include Magnetic Joe and Inchville from Most Wanted Entertainment, Mobile Amusement's Mouse Panic and SuDoku Dragon Gems series, and Watagame’s Era of Eidolon seven game series, including BlackJack and Poker. Also added are Orange Pixel's Toddlers and Rocket Boy, Tank Wars and Illuminator from Tracebit, The Hero and Super Tonic Man by Fugu Mobile, and Gameleons' Viki Vans and Raptor Heavy Squad. News of the new titles follows a recent report of Greystripe receiving $1.2 million in series A funding to further develop the company's AdWRAP technology and GameJump.com consumer portal. The funding was provided by venture firms Monitor Ventures, Incubic Venture Capital and W.S. Investments. “We are thrilled that mobile game publishers are sharing in the success and promise of our free ad-supported mobile content model,” said Michael Chang, founder and CEO of Greystripe’s GameJump.com. “GameJump.com’s huge growth in game titles, handset compatibility, and game players is validation of the new business model that we’ve pioneered.”
