Super X Studios Terminates Wild Earth Publishing Agreement with Digital Jesters

Wild EarthSeattle, WA - 2005.12.01 -- Effective immediately, Super X Studios® is terminating their publishing agreement with Digital Jesters Limited for their long-anticipated award-winning independent game, Wild Earth®.

Super X Studios owner James Thrush stated, "It has come to our awareness that the company we signed with, Digital Jesters Limited, will not be able to fulfill its publishing role as its staff and assets are being subsumed by the new DJ Group publishing company. We wish them well on their new venture but as of this moment we are looking to place Wild Earth, which is now completed, with another publisher."

Developed by Seattle based Super X Studios, Wild Earth is a PC and Xbox safari adventure set in the heart of Africa, offering gamers a breathtaking journey through the Serengeti National Park. The mass-market title, which centers on exploration of the spectacular African terrain and photography of an immense array of beautifully and accurately rendered indigenous flora and fauna, has also been developed by Super X Studios as a motion simulator thrill ride recently installed in several locations worldwide, including the Philadelphia, San Diego, and Miami zoos.

Wild Earth is the winner of the Seaman McNally Grand Prize, Innovation in Game Design, and Innovation in Visual Art awards at the Independent Games Festival.
