Outspark Unveils Pi Story as the Premier Launch Title for the New Outspark Publishing Platform
Posted By LordAbThe company receives an overwhelming response to the platform announced during the 2008 Game Developers Conference.
Outspark today unveiled Pi Story as the first title to join its rapidly growing virtual playground through the Outspark Publishing Platform. An exciting free online role-playing game for the PC, Pi Story will be available to the Outspark community during the second quarter of 2008.
Developed by NCONY, Pi Story is a 2D side-scrolling game featuring beautiful anime-style imagery, story-based gameplay and a suite of community features. Players create a character, battle through treacherous dungeons and gather lost Pi on their quest to reunite a shattered universe.
“We’re excited to bring Pi Story to our growing community of social
gamers as we build a new online entertainment destination for players of
all ages and experience levels,” said Outspark CEO and founder Susan
Choe. “Developer partners joining the Publishing Platform share
Outspark’s vision of the future of online entertainment, and Pi Story is
the first of many partnerships that will bring even more great games to
our community.”
Community features in Pi Story include a party and guild system for
cooperative gameplay, personal web diaries featuring text and photos and
a unique housing system that lets players customize their own dwelling
and visit those built by other players. Outspark and NCONY will release
additional details about the game in the coming weeks and months as they
work together to make the game part of Outspark’s virtual playground.
“NCONY couldn’t have chosen a better partner than Outspark, who is the
leader in game management and operations. With their full understanding
of the game market and extensive experience in working with Korean
developers, we are confident that together we will make Pi Story a
phenomenal success,” said NCONY Founder and CEO Gregory Lee.
