Hysteria Project comes out on top

Bulkypix wins Milthon Revelation 2009 award
French developer Bulkypix didn't go for the full black tie ensemble at the Milthon award ceremony.

It preferred the developer chic of white t-shirts.

Nevertheless, we're sure there was lots of champagne, as it came away with the Milthon Revelation 2009 award for its iPhone game Hysteria Project.

"For Hysteria Project to win the award means a lot for us," says Bulkypix CEO Vincent Dondaine.

"It's the first time in France an iPhone game has won a prize, and proves the strong position the platform has established within the games industry in two years.

"Once again Apple has enabled people to express their creativity and innovation. We are really grateful for that opportunity."

Bulkypix was set up from the remnants of Vivendi Games Mobile Paris studio to make games for iPhone and iPod touch.
