You realize that there are prizes for all categories? Maybe it is a lot cheaper to develop a non-game app, and so the prize is proportional to the initial development cost? I don't think the app challenge discourages non-game development. I could (if I was not an Intel employee) win 120000USD by making a cool calculator or alarm clock.... That's a lot easier than developing a full clone of "Enraged Avians" ;^) Cheers, Auke _______________________________________________ General mailing list General@lists.tizen.org https://lists.tizen.org/listinfo/general
