Multi-platform entertainment publisher Connect2Media has announced that it will be bringing the popular online game ‘Tumblebugs’ to mobile phones in Q2 2009.
Tumblebugs has been a remarkable hit on the Internet with well over 35
million downloads or free-plays to date. The game has topped download
charts on all of the major games sites including Yahoo!, Big Fish
Games, Shockwave, AOL and Oberon and spent four months in Real Arcade’s
Top 10. The game’s hit status has created international demand, seeing
it translated into numerous languages.
In the game the ‘Black Bug Empire’ are marching lines of good Bugs
underground to be enslaved forever. The player launches vividly
coloured bugs at the line of prisoners, when three or more of the same
coloured bugs are matched they are saved. The simplicity of the
gameplay, simply aim and fire, makes it easy for anyone to pick up and
play and hard to put down. Further depth comes in the form of
power-ups, two different gameplay modes and 78 levels of action.
“Tumblebugs struck us as being one of the most beautiful, polished
games on the market,” says Connect2Media CEO, Eric Hobson. “Based on a
classic gameplay mechanic, the look and feel of Tumblebugs was what
really struck us, and elevated the game way above similar products.”
