Sydney, Australia, 3 February 2012 – Let the sweet, sweet revenge begin. Fly with Me! is a casual title where players will need to keep their cool and tap the screen to eat bees and maintain a steady flap. Help the birds avoid hurdles, catch bees and stay in flight or they could end up with a mouthful of dirt instead of delicious bugs!

Fly with Me! features three different challenge modes of fields, trees and tropical backgrounds with a variety of enemy creatures including spiders, fish and Venus Fly Traps. This title also introduces several different kinds of birds including a Pink Cockatoo, a Robot Bird and a Kid Mode for a variety of gameplay.

Robot Bird
To get ample revenge on the bees, the Sparrow realised he needed some extra help and built the Robot Bird. Players seeking an extra challenge will find gears hidden in each of the 45 game levels to build the dominating Robot. This bird is immune to fire, geysers, poisonous enemies and additional dangerous obstacles that have kept others from finally conquering the bees. Players must still beware! The Sparrow learned that there isn’t a magic answer when it comes to defeating the evil bees. While Robot Bird is strong, not even he can survive a thump into a solid tree.

Kid Mode
Kid Mode introduces a happy yellow canary who loves to fly for fun! Featuring 30 brand new levels exclusively designed for Kid Bird, the custom animations and friendly difficulty level allows users to be less competitive and play for enjoyment. Since Kid Bird isn’t out for revenge, this mode features Infinity Flap which lets birds fly without needing to eat bees to maintain altitude. Players can build their skills to find the right gust of wind adjusted for fast speed and watch Kid Bird soar through the sky sending him on an exciting rollercoaster ride.

Stay tuned for new enemy characters and birds to come.
