Charity XBLA title 'Chime' announced
Published Wednesday, Jan 20 2010, 17:42 GMT | By Matthew Reynolds
Published by charity initiative OneBigGame and developed by Zoë Mode, the release will be a music-based puzzle game.
Players must place one piece into a grid at a time, accompanied by a beat that changes according to when pieces are placed.
Pieces bunched together will create quads, which will earn multipliers and a higher score.
Five songs are to be provided by the likes of Moby and Orbital, as well as leaderboard and achievement support.
Over 60% of the title's profits will be donated to children's charities around the world.
It will be released February 3 for 400 Microsoft Points (£3.40).
