Tizen App Challenge Extends Deadline!
Looking for more time to certify your app in the Tizen Store to enter the Tizen App Challenge? Want to port a few more apps to Tizen using new middleware tools like Construct 2, Marmalade SDK, Project Anarchy™ by Havok™, among many others? Great news... the Tizen App Challenge is extending its deadline by one month to Dec. 8, 2013, at 11:59pm PST. This means you have 4 more weeks for a chance at $4+ million.
"We've been really impressed with the flurry of new developer tools and activities in support of Tizen," said Brian Warner, Senior Member Services Manager for Linux Foundation Collaboration Projects. "We firmly believe in the value of the competition because history has shown time and again this is the best way to foster vibrant, robust ecosystems.”
Support from 3rd parties is fantastic news for Tizen. If you develop using tools like Construct 2 or Marmalade any many others, you can enter a whole new ecosystem without learning one new thing. The list of providers supporting or planning to back Tizen grows weekly. And once you've completed development, appbackr can score your Tizen app and provide you additional financial and technical incentives.
The extra time can also be used to refine those awesome apps you're already working on and complete the Tizen 2.2 certification process in the Tizen Store. That means even if you've already submitted your app to the Tizen App Challenge, you can continue to make changes and upload new versions through the end of the contest, so long as you achieve Tizen 2.2 certification for your final version by the end of the entry period. If your Content ID changes, let us know at tizenappchallenge@tizen.org.
With such an open, inviting environment, why wouldn’t you join the Tizen community and enter the Challenge? Nothing says welcome quite like a shot at $4+ in prizes, does it?
Happy hacking!

So who won? I don't see the required winners list.

Was there any place in the submission we were supposed to specifically call out that our app/game was HTML5 based? I submitted my game, but don't remember if there was a field to specify that it was an HTML5 game.
