Pizza Morgana episodic series targets spring delivery

Those who like their adventures in small episodic slices will be pleased to know that a new comedy series called Pizza Morgana has now been unveiled by indie developer Corbomite Games.

Based on a popular cartoon by Isreali writer Uri Fink, Pizza Morgana casts players in the role of a young girl named Jackie, who suddenly finds herself "accidentally teleported into a magical dimension filled with monsters, vampires, faeries, and daemons, which all just happen to be employed as pizza delivery guys." Helping players get accustomed to this bizarre world is Abbie Positive, the pizza delivery vampire who acts as Jackie's guide. Little has been revealed about the plot beyond that, but the first episode will allow gamers to "play through the events that lead to Jackie's teleportation into the world of TerraMagia."

According to Oded Sharon, the CEO of Corbomite, the new series will be presented in 2.5D with hand drawn backgrounds using a classic point-and-click control scheme. The developers are targeting both casual and experienced adventure gamers, offering two different levels of difficulty to satisfy both types of player preference and ability. With its heavy emphasis on comedy, the English version of the game will also feature voiceovers by Hollywood actors, though no names have yet been announced.

The "first season" of Pizza Morgana will consist of five episodes in total, to be sold through the game's official website. Episodes will be sold individually, but much like Telltale Games has done in recent years, Corbomite also plans to offer full season subscriptions at a reduced price, and hopes to release a packaged retail version at season's end.

Production on the debut episode is well underway, having already reached beta stage, and the target release date should occur some time in spring 2009.
