Zynga And Twisted Metal Dev Release Looney Tunes Game

Have you ever wanted to play an endless runner game developed in part by Twisted Metal developer Eat Sleep Play? Now you’re in luck, as Eat Sleep Play and social gaming giant Zynga on Thursday released Looney Tunes Dash!, a free mobile game for iOS and Android devices that promises something different than the standard runner game.

Developed in partnership with Zynga and Warner Bros., Looney Tunes Dash! is of course set within the zany, over-the-top world of Looney Tunes. You’ll play as well-known characters such as Bugs Bunny, Road Runner, Tweety Bird, and more as you run and jump through colorful worlds.

What sets Looney Tunes Dash! apart from other endless runners, and there are many, is that you don’t run until you die, but rather you run until you win, Zynga says. As you move through the game’s levels, (there are 90 at launch) you’ll escape foes such as Elmer Fudd and Wil E. Coyote, just like the original cartoons.

Some of the game’s levels, as well as music and moments, are inspired by classic Looney Tunes episodes, Zynga says. The developer has even enlisted Jeff Bergman, the current voice actor for Bugs Bunny, Daffy, Elmer, Yosemite Sam, and others, to do the voice work for the game.

“While the setting will instantly evoke memories for Looney Tunes fans, we’re also delivering a unique experience based on the requests we heard most often from players–a Runner game that rewards completion and puts new challenges around every twist and turn,” Zynga general manager John vanSuchtelen said.

Similar to other runner games, Looney Tunes Dash! lets player collect coins to unlock new skills and amass power-ups. The game also features Looney Tunes Collector’s Cards scattered throughout each level. These include facts about classic episodes, challenging Looney Tunes fans to put their knowledge of the series to the test.

You can play Looney Tunes Dash! today by downloading the game from iTunes or Google Play. For more on the game, check out the image gallery below. Be sure to click each image to see a full-size version.
