Mobile and online flash games based on children's TV series on the way after new deals.
Silverbirch Studios and Breakthrough New Media have secured deals to develop two games based on the forthcoming animated kids TV series, Jimmy Two Shoes.
The show is due to be aired on Teletoon Canada and Jetix Europe in early 2009.
Silverbirch will work on a mobile game - which will be distributed through Swedish-based Global Fun - and an online flash game that will be housed on the official website at Teletoon.com.
"I'm very excited about the opportunity to work on games based on this animated property," said Wojtek Kawczynski, SVP and general manager of Silverbirch Studios. "Breakthrough is an accomplished Canadian multiplatform game producer and to be able to work on a concept developed by them is a great way to start our relationship."
Dorothy Vreeker, creative director and producer of Breakthrough, added: "We are very confident that Silverbirch will deliver top quality games on both platforms."
