My, how things change. A few years ago, anyone proposing that Facebook games would turn into a wildly profitable multi-billion dollar industry would probably be met with some pretty strange looks. Yet now market-leader Zynga has a higher valuation than Electronic Arts. Some might say the gold rush has passed, and that the entrenched players are going to be impossible to beat, but now a new wave of companies has set its sights on a related, but fundamentally different genre: casual mobile gaming. Today, a startup called TinyCo (formerly known as Brooklyn Packet) has closed an $18 million funding round led by Andreessen Horowitz, and they're setting out to become the most successful mobile gaming company out there. It's a lofty goal and TinyCo has some steep competition, but their thesis ?�that mobile gaming is about to take off in a huge way ?�seems right on the mark. Oh, and they now have Marc Andreessen on their board, which isn't a bad start.
