30th July 2004 - Coyote Wireless, a division of Coyote
Developments Ltd, developer and publisher of award-winning
games, announced today that it has entered into an exclusive,
co-publishing agreement with Airborne Entertainment,
a leading publisher of top-flight branded wireless entertainment,
for the J2ME and BREW versions of Super Yum Yum throughout
North America. Also on the cards are similar co-publishing
deals in China, Korea and Brazil with key players in
those territories.
All of this is timed with a television appearance on
Sky One’s Gamezville on July 24th and coincides with
a fresh re-launch of Super Yum Yum in Europe, with the
first site in Europe to launch the game, Coolfinger,
seeing a resurgence of sales of the IP. In addition,
Super Yum Yum is now being launched by carriers O2 and
Vodafone across Europe.
Developed by Airplay UK Ltd, who were recently nominated
for the Develop Award’s Best New Studio, Super Yum Yum
was the only original game nominated for a BAFTA (British
Academy for Film and Television Arts) game award last
year, up against the likes of Tony Hawks and Tomb Raider.
Super Yum Yum stars Leon the Chameleon, who is lost
and must eat fruit, change color, and cross gaps through
36 different levels to find his way home.
A most addictive and colorful game, Super Yum Yum has
been consistently in the top 5 or 10 in multiple languages
across European mobile carriers and portals. It is expected
to carry this tradition into the U.S., China, Korea
and South America.
Coyote’s MD, Matthew Nagy stated: “We’re looking forward
to working with all our new publishing partners. Each
of them has a strong presence in their marketplace,
and we know they’ll do exciting things with Super Yum
Yum.”
