Bruno Productions is proud to present a new property: Calimero!

This lovable black chicken is a character that children can relate to best - reasonable, generous, perhaps a bit naïve at times but always loyal. This retro brand, well-known by adults from their childhood, returns to educate and entertain a new generation as it did many years ago. Calimero is the only black one in a family of yellow chickens. You can recognise him because of the white scratched egg-shell on his head; after he was born he never took it off. He lets himself be carried away by the enthusiasm of others, but his good practical sense helps him to counter his friends’ rashness. He is very patient but at times he also loses his temper, especially when there is a matter of injustice and he manages to show his colours with success. The story behind Calimero is one of friendship, family, community and good feelings. There are no monsters, disasters or enemies to fight and defeat, the only things you must contend with are Piero’s tricks. Dangerous or frightening situations that can happen always turn out to be positive. Sometimes risks are only imaginary, like children’s daydreams that disappear when they wake up. In the eighties and nineties this brave little chicken was a phenomenon amongst children because of the TV series and merchandising. Do you want to know more about this property?

Angel Cat Sugar’s first foray into videogames will arrive in Europe this fall, publisher/ distributor Rising Star Games confirmed beginning this month. Angel Cat Sugar will be released on Nintendo DS and PC-CD in Europe and Australia. Stockholm based developer/publisher PANVISION AB will publish and distribute the Nintendo DS and PC-CD versions throughout the Nordic territory. Commenting on the release, Rising Star Games’ Yen Hau offered “Having seen what is already available across Europe we are genuinely excited to be part of this brand building push, especially when you consider the underlying ethics behind the Angel Cat Sugar world and the potential to match – even surpass – the trend set by Hello Kitty”. Although primarily aimed at a pre-teen female audience, there is potential to reach a wider casual audience, where the merchandising till now has proven to be a big success.
