Band of Bugs latest expansion adds extensive downloadable content
Orem, Utah- October 15, 2007 -NinjaBee, a division of Wahoo Studios and a leading
independent developer of Xbox LIVE Arcade titles, announced yesterday its newest
expansion pack, Ninja Sticks of Fury, for the Band of Bugs title. With this new
expansion pack comes a new shadowy character, new achievements and a bigger challenge
than anything that came before it.
The new campaign is set in a new desolate and mountain area beyond the known Insect
Kingdom. Featuring a new unit class, players guide a ninja named Vail who leads
a group of mercenaries while a mysterious group wreaks havoc across the snowy wasteland.
The ninja adds a new level of strategy to Band of Bugs, forcing players to think
in new ways.
Band of Bugs has gained popularity for its innovative level editor, which allows
any user to create unique content for their friends and the community. Ninja
Sticks of Fury adds a brand new unit and a winter tile set to the editor allowing
level designers to push their creativity to the limit. The Snowy environment is
not only available in the editor, but will automatically enhance select existing
maps already in the game, adding new variety to old favorites.
Band of Bugs was released in June, 2007. It is available on Xbox LIVE Arcade as
both a free trial and as a full game for only 800 Microsoft Points. It supports
1-4 players in co-op or in multiplayer versus modes and also supports the Xbox LIVE
Vision camera. One of the few turn-based tactics games available, Band of Bugs provides
gameplay deep enough to be satisfying to established fans of the genre, but friendly
enough to appeal to casual gamers. Currently, the game has fifty levels, 3 map packs,
2 additional campaigns, and also features a level editor allowing gamers to design
custom scenarios and play them solo or over Xbox LIVE with friends.
