Espoo, Finland – Nokia has just introduced a new tool for developers that will allow players to create their own games for the phone maker's N-Gage mobile phone game service.

Called Yamake, it allows players to add their own content to different mini games, then play the games and share them with friends and others in the Yamake. Players can add content like text, pictures, sound clips, and movies from their mobile device or desktop computer.

The games can be shared through multimedia messages between N-Gage compatible phones and other devices based on the S60 platform. Nokia has already rolled out N-Gage on its N81 phones in anticipation of the commercial launch later in the year.
