NinjaBee announces new xbox live
arcade title NinjaBee, now with more Keflings!
NinjaBee, a division of Wahoo
Studios and a leading independent developer of Xbox LIVE® Arcade titles, has
announced details about its newest title, A Kingdom for Keflings. This
innovative city-building title comes from the studio that developed and
published the popular games Band of Bugs, Outpost Kaloki X and Cloning Clyde.
A Kingdom for Keflings puts players
in the shoes of a giant who has the ability to design and construct an intricate
city for the local Keflings. Each giant starts out with a small handful
(literally!) of helpful Keflings who follow the giant’s every command. These
Keflings can be trained to become lumberjacks, miners, transporters, sheep
shearers, scholars, and various other professions as they help build the kingdom
from the ground up.
"We wanted to make a city building
game where the player is more personally involved instead of controlling an
abstract floating hand," said Steve Taylor, President of NinjaBee. "A Kingdom
for Keflings transports the player to a world they create and allows them to
relax, enjoy the world and create a strategy that works for them."
A Kingdom for Keflings will feature
fun and light-hearted gameplay with stunning visuals and original music to
match. Players will build through all four seasons, with a dynamic musical score
that changes depending on the progress of the city. Players of all ages can
customize their kingdom by painting buildings and walls, planting trees and
topiaries and constructing statues and other works of art. The online
multiplayer option allows up to four giants to build a kingdom cooperatively
over Xbox LIVE. A Kingdom for Keflings will be released later this fall on Xbox
LIVE Arcade.
