JCE (GameKiss, www.gamekiss.com) announced Tuesday that its mobile game, “Angry Honey” which was released to global smart phone market for the first time, seized the top rank for downloading service in the category of Top Free Apps within two days since its update after it received a warm review from major Asian markets including Korea.
Since registering with the global AppStore late June, “Angry Honey” of GameKiss was ranked at the top in the category of ‘Top Free’ download for the entire global AppStore in 7 major Asian countries such as Singapore, Viet Nam, Malaysia and Philippine.
“Angry Honey” is a rhythm action game based on a storyline of domestic dispute between husband and wife, which contains mild addictiveness as well as offers soft game actions well-suited for mobile platform. The game depicts comic surroundings where an angry wife throws dish, chair and even a refrigerator while a husband responds by breaking the home appliances in order to avoid being hit. It is believed that the key element for its popularity is based on its strength to promote the feel of touching through light sound effects and irregular rhythmic feels.
World-wide users also pointed out the rhythmic, speedy and hitting feels for the strength of “Angry Honey,” saying that they started out the game just to release tensions but couldn’t easily stop playing it because of its subtle addictiveness.
GameKiss plans to further invest into a new product development after successfully launching and maintaining a popularity of their first-ever AppStore game, “Angry Honey.” At the same time, their second product, “Fly Gaga” is also drawing attention whether the game could follow the feat of “Angry Honey.”
Roman Lee, PM of GameKiss, said, “Our first-ever mobile game, ‘Angry Honey’ has garnered quite an attention from all around the world after ranked on the top of AppStore,” and he added, “We plan to expand into mobile game market in full-scale based on recent experience with success as well as long-standing know-how that GameKiss possesses.”

We always felt we were making a great, fun DS game with an innovative twist... but we never realised how much people would like it until yesterday, when we released our trailer.... 13,500 views in the first 24 hours and a slew of amazing comments. People are loving Fractured Soul! Right from when the DS was first announced, we’ve wanted to make a game that made full use of both screens. We always felt that gamers would embrace a game that truly fit the DS hardware. Fractured Soul is that game, and from the comments we’ve received so far, and the flood of interest on YouTube, gamers worldwide agree with us. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqCQCg95_2I)
ATTENTION PUBLISHERS! - We are in the final development stages for Fractured Soul and are looking to have the title signed for US and Europe over the coming month. If we have not spoken with you yet and you are interested in this title for either US or Europe, please get in contact with us as we would hate to miss out on your interest towards this fantastic title that is receiving great praise from the gaming community. Help spread this action packed thrill ride far and wide! (pr@n3vgames.com)

2010 Major Tournament of Online Street Basketball Freestyle, provided by global game portal, GameKiss, is to be held starting the first day of August. This Major Tournament is the second tournament hosted by GameKiss following 2010 Rookie Tournament which was held in June.
While the previous Rookie Tournament was mainly aimed to promote friendship amongst beginners and rookie users under level 15, upcoming Major Tournament is designed for the skilled users over level 16 to fully exhibit their skills that they have refined at Freestyle.
In this tournament, major users (Level 16 through 30) and All-star users (Level 31 through 45) will be competed separately considering the gaps in the ability of characters between them. Especially for All-star users, a private channel specifically designed for the Major Tournament is to be implemented for the competition.
“This upcoming tournament has been prepared to provide fairer competition in order to thank the users at the last Rookie Tournament for their tremendous support,” said ‘Joey,’ Main GM of FS. “Especially with private channel for the league, all characters logged into the channel are to have their ability value set at level 42, which assures all users to compete against each other solely based on their skills,” added ‘Joey.”
This Major Tournament is also to be held while separating preliminary rounds and the final round in addition to a separation of sections according to user’s level. By having winners from preliminary rounds to compete against each other at final round, it is expected to find out who the true champion of GameKiss Freestyle is in the end.
Upcoming Major Tournament is featured with far richer rewards comparing to the Rookie Tournament. Those who qualified through preliminary rounds are guaranteed for $60 dollar worth GameKiss cash, and the Champion Team winning the final round will be awarded with $150 dollar worth GameKiss cash along with VIP + package and costume item at their choice. The result of each game will be posted through GameKiss website, and the Champion Team is to have additional bonus of a priority right to participate future tournament and league competition.

One day last week our cleaner left a window open, during the night the notorious ‘Doodle’ entered our development studio and left its mark in a part finished pool game. Very early the next morning when the team arrived to start work (around 11.30am) they discovered the scene of the crime, it was shocking, it was frightening, it was memorising, we called it Doodle Pool.
