Chillingo, the EA-owned mobile publisher which first brought Angry Birds to light, has launched a new initiative called 100% Indie.

The hardware manufacturer is gaining huge ground in the smartphone market, and wants games developers on board; it’s offering up to six months of 100% revenue followed by competitive revenue share rates for any titles accepted into the program in the first six months.

Thanks, GamePolitics.
