The application is simple: you will get a question from Dr. Schlümpfi about the topography of the Netherlands which you have to answer. If your answer is right, you’ll receive points. If you answer 5 questions right in a row, you’ll get a special event where you can earn extra time! After finishing a game you’ll unlock a new level. The next level will be more difficult, so the further you’ll get, the harder the questions will be… In the difficult levels you will need only 3 questions in row right answered to earn more time, but you have to try to manage that!

You can play the game in 2 different modes: ‘Multiple Choice’ and ‘Point on Map’. The Multiple Choice mode gives you the option to choose the right answer out of 3 very interesting possibilities. The Point on Map mode is even more fun: depending on the level you’re playing, the map shows an amount of points on the map of the Netherlands. Dr. Schlümpfi will allow you to drag him to the right point on the map. If you finished the complete game, you will be an expert of the topography of the Netherlands!

To help you progress with your knowledge about the topography of the Netherlands, Dr. Schlümpfi is keeping track of your score. You can access your score from the main menu. Not only from you, but also from 2 other players, because you can store 3 accounts in the application. By doing this, Dr. Schlümpfi can compare the scores of the 3 accounts to give you an overview about your progress.

Right now you can only become an expert of the topography of the Netherlands, but as soon as you are, there will be a new version ready which will contain more parts of the world! Please be patient until your country is starred in TopoTutor.

But that’s not all: TopoTutor is also applied to the Apple AppStore! We’re still waiting until Apple approved Dr. Schlümpfi, but TopoTutor will be available on the iPhone soon!

To download TopoTutor for your Android device, go to the Market on your phone and search for ‘TopoTutor’ or ‘M2Mobi’. Or, in case you have a QR-scanner, scan the code shown below:

Will Microsoft be able to deliver something innovative for a change? We like Microsoft for giving us one of their Windows 7 Phones, but only if it actually is worth something to us. We like the ideas behind their mobile interface design, but it all comes down to the actual implementation of these ideas into something nice and comprehensive. It is supposed to arrive sometime this month, so we are waiting eagerly.

We have almost fully dropped our faith in Windows as a mobile platform to develop for because a) customers don’t download apps, b) there aren’t much customers anyways, c) the SDK sucks (you can’t really create anything cool, and d) no matter how hard you try, the app you build will never feel snappy, it wil always be SLOW. We don’t want to create apps that are not cool and slow….

The promise of WP 7 is an interface that is in line with our Spatial Navigation ideas, and a complete revamp of the OS….we are waiting for the delivery and update you with our findings.

Get the game and start training your penalty skills!

Even though nobody really noticed, Nokia is pushing it’s new N8 device together with the OVI store and all the nice apps that people can download there. Amongst the nicest of those apps are our apps, of course. And therefore Nokia is pushing our apps in their commercials. As you can see, Nulaz is right up there with Facebook. Really nice of them. Thanks Nokia.

It is a bit strange though that a new flagship device is announced and nobody really cares that much about it. There’s not so much to say of this device anyways…to us, it just looks like another Nokia.

We have really enjoyed our experience with creating the Holland Heineken House mobile application, and we would like to share our experience with you in this presentation.

Listen here to the full item.

De 24 grootste telecombedrijven ter wereld kondigden deze week een nieuwe wereldwijde appstore aan, oftewel een winkel waar je kleine programmaatjes kunt krijgen voor je mobiele telefoon. Want zo heten die kleine programma’s waarmee je bijvoorbeeld slimme verkeerinformatie kunt opvragen: apps. Apple heeft met zo’n appstore enorm veel succes en dat willen de telecombedrijven ook. Maar valt dat succes wel te kopieren? Radio Online vroeg het Michiel Munneke van M2Mobi, dat onder meer de app maakte van het Holland House op de Olympische Winterspelen.

After  lots of hard work, we can announce that our Holland Heineken House application is finished and ready to download! SMS Heineken to 3010 to get it.

When comparing this app to other Olympic Winter Games applications, the main advantages of this app is that it does not require data traffic. Beside all the Olympic info, the application obviously revolves around the Holland Heineken House.

“And what can I do with this app?”, you might be wondering. Well, it is the definite guide for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games, as well as your reference if you are going to visit the Holland Heineken House and want to know more about it. It has everything!. Where do we start….? It has several maps with sport venues and useful information, sports program, Holland Heineken House program, ringtones, wallpapers, currency converter, etc…

And guess what…yes, as for every product, we want to make it available for everybody, so, as you can imagine, we do have a version for all platforms: iPhone, Android, all Java phones, Windows Mobile and mobile website for those who prefer surfing the Web.
