Ricci Rukavina - President of Loose Cannon Studios (Former Vice President of The Walt Disney Company and Creative Director at Vivendi Games) http://www.loosecannonstudios.com/ ·         "CellZenith represents guerilla game-making at its best.  With a very small agile team of passionate gamers, Faramix has delivered a title that puts gameplay first yet delivers on outstanding visuals and replayability”

Cel Attack and Ball Escape should instantly hook any fan of classic  videogames while entries such as Black Hole will truly test your hand-eye coordination” ·         “It is a solid, neoclassic videogame entertainment package and well worth every penny of its $20 price tag.”
Rob O’Hara / J2Games http://j2games.com/new/forum/index.php?topic=2706.0   ·         “The sound and visuals are absolutely stunning and certainly has no lack of options for gamers.
