PLAYER ONE BRINGS RETRO CLASSIC NEBULUS TO MOBILE
For immediate release: London, 3 July 2006 - Player One,
leading global publisher of games and content for mobile
phones, is delighted to announce the release of retro classic
arcade game Nebulus. Originally published in the late 1980's
for classic game platforms including the ZX Spectrum and
Commodore 64, Nebulus was a roaring success and has been
re-versioned for a variety of other games consoles since.
Nebulus places the player in charge of a high tech frog called
Pogo who is an employee of Destruction Inc. Pogo's job is to
make it to the top of the eight illegal towers that were
erected from the bottom of the sea high up into the skies and
destroy them whilst tackling bizarre obstacles and enemies set
to hinder him and throw him back into the depths waiting below.
The mobile game version of the game is easy to play but hard to
master and features a highly original game play mechanic. With
eight extensive levels and a simple yet effective 3D-style game
play, Nebulus is perfectly suited to become a major hit as a
mobile phone game. Pete Russell, Managing Director, Player One
commented: "Nebulus is the ultimate in 'classic platform' games
and is sure to appeal to a wide range of mobile users. Bringing
Nebulus to mobile further endorses our strategy of creating an
exciting variety of games for mobile gamers around the world."
Nebulus will be available to download from the Vodafone Live
and Orange World wap portals or by simply texting NEBULUS to
87070* from the beginning of July. "Nebulus" is just one of a
range of high quality licensed titles set for release this
year. Other releases this year include "Rogue Trooper",
"Freddie Flintoff All-Round Cricket", "Michael Vaughan Cricket
06/07" and "Jenson Button Grand Prix" and "Frankie Dettori
Vodafone Derby". -ends- Notes to editors: *Terms &
