German m
obile gaming company itsmy has launched a HTML5 gaming service for smart TVs and selected set-top boxes. Purchased mobile games from itsmys roster of 20 can be ported across to the users TV, without needing to be bought again, via the cloud.
Games can be controlled on the TV screen using the users remote control or, via an app, smartphone or Tablet device.
“In contrast to the online streaming services, we have developed our cloud platform in HTML5 which runs perfectly with low and high bandwidth,” says Jukka Saarelainen, CTO itsmy. “Our server side platform technology enables us to deliver on the fly the best possible HTML5 code to guarantee a high-class gaming fun.” 
itsmy says it will release a smart TV distribution API which can be utilised by other mobile game companies worldwide by the end of the year.
