Songbird Lassos Loopz for Lynx
June 29, 2004
For immediate release:
ROCHESTER, MN -- After years of being in a holding pattern, Loopz is finally
making a landing on the Atari Lynx. Songbird Productions recently scooped up
the rights to this game after several years of negotiations with Audiogenic
Software Ltd. and Hand Made Software.
Loopz is the captivating puzzle game which has been published in at least a
dozen different formats. The premise is simple: get pieces, drop them on the
screen, and form closed "loopz" to clear the screen. The bigger the loopz, the
bigger the points. The three game variations included are Chain Loopz, Target
Loopz, and Match Loopz, each with their own twist on the basic game. Players
can also watch for "gophers" which appear occasionally to help clear incomplete
loopz from the screen.
Peter Calver, Managing Director of Audiogenic, was happy to work with Songbird
on licensing this release: "I'm thrilled that at last Lynx owners will finally
be able to play this highly addictive game!". Songbird founder Carl Forhan was
equally pleased, saying, "This is a game many fans have heard about and maybe
even played a few times over the years. I'm glad Songbird can finally give this
game the proper publication it deserves."
Songbird expects to have the game ready for release at Classic Gaming Expo in
San Jose this August. For details about CGE, please visit http://cgexpo.com .
