How do I begin developing J2ME games for mobile phones?

  1. Are any libraries available that can render pixel fonts for text? - for text games
  2. Are 2D graphic libraries available that can draw animated bitmaps? - for isometric and tiled games
  3. Any are 3D engines available with texture mapping & lighting? -- for racing and flying simulators

And regarding screen sizes:

  • What screen size to choose initially for good market penetration?
  • How to manage game source code, in different screen sizes? Make separate branches?

I'm new to J2ME programming, so any links you can give me to start off would be great.
