We've been working on Mashooo's new features for the last couple of months and the truth is that it has made us fall deeper in love with Silverlight. We have implemented plenty of new controls, beginning with the High Score Service, passing through the new Featured Games section, the Top Ten Users list and many more that you can discover by visiting Mashooo.com.

We have added interesting activities for players such as Achievements and Contests, and invented Mashooo's own currency to reward users for their actions, effort and proficiency.

This version of the website is in Beta stage so it will only get better!

The deadline for submitting entries to the Mashooo S Prize has been reached. The total number of entries is 37 with the last one luckily making it within 4 minutes of the end!

At Mashooo we are extremely pleased with the quality of the games and their adventurous and bright developers. They have proved that the Silverlight games industry sees a promising future.

Congratulations to all you Silverlight game developers who obviously put their hearts and efforts into creating virtual joy.

Now the rating period continues all week until Sunday June 21st:
We invite the Silverlight community in general to support the Silverlight game developers by playing their games and rating them with an objective, fair and sincere eye.

The top 10 games will go on to be presented to our panel of judges.

Well, I'm off to have fun playing the 37 games all over again to decide on my ratings. You only get to rate each game once and once only so do it carefully! The link to do so is:

A Silverlight game development competition open to the world is no longer a dream. The contest entry period for the Mashooo S Prize ends on June 14, 2009 so you still have time to concoct a cool casual web game based on Silverlight.

The prizes add up to more than $10,000 USD in cash and software products, what makes it worth to give it a try.

To this day we already have 2 entries that you can rate, comment on, give advice to the authors and just enjoy playing them. Visit Mashooo's Silverlight Games page and choose the S Prize contest tab.

The body was too wide. Now it fits screen resolutions starting at 1024px width. It's centered. All Silverlight applications have been modified accordingly. I fixed some layout issues with Firefox and Chrome. Mashooo looking good.

Besides this I'm working on a cool layout for the games section. Don't know when I'll be finished though. Hopefully by the end of the week.

Finally a little great addition: Users are now able to choose to register either through a Mashooo account or OpenID.
