MURRIETA, Calif., Dec. 7, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Left Behind Games Inc. (OTCBB:LFBG), dba Inspired Media Entertainment, a leading publisher of Christian video games, announced today that they have signed an agreement with LifeLine Studios, Inc. to assist in the development of Bible Adventures for the Nintendo Wii and Microsoft Xbox 360. The new games will incorporate content from all three Charlie Church Mouse games for ages 3-8 featuring enhanced graphics, sound and unique game controller experiences.
Left Behind Games' CEO, Troy Lyndon, says, "Parents and kids already love the Charlie Church Mouse Bible Adventure games for the PC. Our strategy is to follow Nintendo's example by including up to 18 story animations and mini-games, providing significant value for our customers. We expect our financial projections to grow exponentially as we transition from a PC game developer to a Wii & Xbox developer."
The improved individual 3D mini-games for kindergarten, preschool and elementary children will also be released in PC formats, while the company is considering the release of iPhone versions.
LifeLine Studios' Co-Founder, Jeff Dotson, says, "We have been with Left Behind Games for nearly two and a half years. In that time, we have found this organization to be run with the highest level of integrity, transparency and a steadfast dedication to stay focused on the mission to make games which can reach the hearts and minds of this generation. We look forward with great anticipation to the upcoming games which will expand the brand originally created in 2001."
The games will still feature the familiar cartoon character on the Charlie Church Mouse Show. The show, which currently airs on TBN's Smile of a Child Network and Sky Angel's KTV Network is a mix of live action and 3D character animation in a fantastic place called Moose Canyon. It provides children a chance to learn, explore, and have fun with the help of Charlie Church Mouse and his lovable cast of friends. The goal of the program is to educate young children by teaching them academic lessons vital to early childhood development through Bible stories.
