Kingdom for Keflings available
today
NinjaBee’s
newest title first Xbox 360 game to feature playable
NinjaBee, a leading independent
developer of Xbox LIVE® Arcade titles, announced today its latest title, A
Kingdom for Keflings, is the premium and only new Xbox LIVE Arcade game to
incorporate in-game Xbox LIVE Avatar support for the launch of the New Xbox
Experience. Players can use their customized Avatar in the game to personally
build their kingdom and boss around the tiny Keflings.
Players can use the new,
customizable Avatar system to create a unique Avatar that looks the way they
want and reflects their individual personality. These custom characters can
instantly be put to work in the game interacting with Keflings, building
buildings, collecting resources and even doing some custom animations like
scaring the Keflings away, dancing, posing, and pointing and laughing. Xbox LIVE
Avatars can be personalized through a wide variety of apparel and accessories
that will be updated every two weeks and available for free. Your custom Avatar
can be shared with friends, used to chat with people in LIVE Party, and can even
star as the main character in certain games, such as A Kingdom for Keflings.
"A Kingdom for Keflings allows
players to create a kingdom according to their own play style," said Steve
Taylor, President of NinjaBee. "It was designed from the start to be a
customizable experience. With the addition of Xbox LIVE Avatars, players can now
further tailor their experience by putting themselves into the game. Avatar
characters can do everything the built-in giants can do, but they look even
better doing it."
A Kingdom for Keflings is an
innovative new city-building title from the studio that developed and published
the award winning Band of Bugs, Outpost Kaloki X and Cloning Clyde. A Kingdom
for Keflings features fun and light-hearted gameplay with stunning visuals and
original music to match. The gameputs players in the shoes of their very own
giant avatar who is personally helping a village of Keflings become a full city.
Giants start out with a small village and a handful (literally!) of helpful
Keflings who are small humanoids that follow the player’s commands and try not
to get stepped on. Each game is different as players customize their kingdom to
their personal vision. The online multiplayer option allows up to four giants to
build a kingdom cooperatively over Xbox LIVE Arcade. A Kingdom for Keflings is
rated "E" For Everyone and can be downloaded directly from Xbox LIVE Arcade for
800 Microsoft Points
