Creators of Talking Tom app unveil multiplayer bubble shooter Mars Pop

Outfit7, the company that created the enormously popular Talking Tom and Friends apps, announced today that it has created Mars Pop, a new bubble-shooter mobile game with real-time interactive multiplayer play for casual gamers.

Mars Pop adds its own twist to the popular genre of bubble-shooter games, where you shoot a bubble from the bottom of a screen to the top in order to pop a bunch of bubbles. The market for bubble shooters is a pretty crowded part of the $30 billion mobile-games market, but Outfit7 has put a lot of work into this title. This is the first time that Outfit7 has departed from its popular Talking Tom and Friends app franchise, which has generated 2.8 billion downloads since launch and more than 250 million active monthly users.
