A BnB Mobile Game Online Based on J2ME and J2EE

Through the example of Bubble and Bubble (BnB) mobile game, the whole development process of mobile game based on J2ME and J2EE is showed. First, Game API in the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) 2.0 is used to build the game engine. Through the optimization and compatibility design of process, middleware framework is selected. Second, the game classes and components design is introduced in detail. Third, the server performance for detonation on the client, the communications time between the clients with the server and the procedure performance of the server have been tested. Various techniques, such as object pool, multi-threaded, socket connection, sprite, Maps etc., are applied in BnB's development. Experiment demonstrates its performance and proves this case is meaningful and useful for other online mobile game development. Some propositions for further research is also suggested.
