SGN Launches EXO-Planet App for iPad

PALO ALTO, Calif., April 2 /PRNewswire/ -- SGN today announced the availability of its EXO-Planet App for iPad on the App Store. The app is a third-person shooter game designed exclusively for iPad where players compete in live zero-gravity combat on two unique space stations, affixing themselves to the walls and ceilings of magnetically-charged platforms. For all the nuance of the game, the objective is simple: bring home the opponent's flag. SGN has provided an elegant technological solution to the challenge of movement and perspective in a zero-gravity environment and EXO-Planet's phenomenal views of space take full advantage of the iPad's large screen and faster processors.

"With the launch of iPad, the industry is going to see a different approach to app design and creativity," said Shervin Pishevar, founder and executive chairman of SGN. "EXO-Planet has been developed to take advantage of the more accurate game controls and large screen offered by iPad. SGN will continue to push the boundaries of social gaming innovation to offer engaging game-play to customers."

In high-orbit outlands throughout the galaxy, the greatest game of Capture the Flag is being played in zero gravity. Players compete in three-minute matches or can win the game by being the first team to capture three flags from the opponents. Every EXO-Planet player is equipped with an armored Juggernaut EXO-Suit and a lethal LX-Automatic weapon. As users play, they'll earn in-game currency, called Scrip, which can be used to upgrade their EXO-Suit and purchase additional weapons. Players also can purchase these upgrades within the game. As a player's experience grows, he or she will be able to level up and unlock three additional weapons: the EM-Blaster, the PA-Cannon and the ultra-precise CL-Pulse Rifle, which comes with a high-powered scope.

SGN's EXO-Planet is available for $6.99 from the App Store on iPad or at www.itunes.com/appstore/.
