Boston, Massachusetts - Michael Denison, artist of the daily Bea Arthur art project, #BeaADay, has collaborated with developer Brian Kokernak of headRUSH to create the side scrolling mobile game, Busy Bea. Players tap the screen to maneuver the game's character across a lanai and through a series of palm trees to collect slices of cheesecake, all the while competing for the top score. Busy Bea fuses the aesthetics of a popular late-1980s sitcom with side-scrolling simplicity.

"Last September I began a year long daily Bea Arthur art project called, #BeaADay," stated Michael Denison. "I keep trying to find new mediums to work into the project and after I had drawn a retro style Nintendo Cartridge label for a fictitious Golden Girls video game, a friend introduced me to an app developer that he knew, Brian Kokernak of headRUSH, who suggested an idea for a game using my artwork and I loved it."

Feature Highlights:
* Pick-up-and-play game for the retro arcade fan
* "Fake-Bit" hand-drawn graphics
* Simple one-touch control
* Challenging gameplay requires fast reflexes
* Game Center Leaderboard

"One of the reasons I wanted to make this game with Michael was it so perfectly played into #BeaADay's main theme: inserting Bea into every pop culture reference imaginable," stated Brian Kokernak. "A Flappy Bird style iPhone game was the next logical entry."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5/5c/5s, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation)
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 6.2 MB
