DNA Dynamics, Inc Announces New Development Project "Skillz: The DJ Game"

Slam Productions to Create iPad and Android Tablet Versions of IGF 2010 Award Winner

LONDON, June 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Slam Productions, subsidiary of DNA Dynamics Inc (PINKSHEETS: DNAD), is delighted to announce that it has been chosen to develop PlayPen Studios' 'Skillz' DJ music game, coming soon for iPad(TM) and Android(TM) Tablets.

Skillz, a music and rhythm game that puts the player behind the turntables as an up-and-coming DJ is currently under development at DNA Studios and will be available early in Q3 2011. Using the iPad and Android tablet's interactive touch-screen interface, users can mix and scratch their way to DJ superstardom as they spin their original sets in front of packed out crowds at hot venues all around the world. The initial track listing at launch consists of some of the hottest club bangers from around the world, featuring artists such as People Under the Stairs, Kid Cudi vs. Crookers, Tony Cook ft. Dam Funk, Diplo, and many others.

Slam Productions was seen by PlayPen as the obvious route to market for the mobile versions of Skillz due to the quality of previous titles and their Rapid Application Development tool, the Slam Engine.

"We're very impressed with the service from the good people at Slam - using their custom tech we're able to rapidly port our award-winning 'Skillz: The DJ Game' to both iOS and Android tablets. They've been excellent to work with at every step and their knowledge of both platforms has really helped 'Skillz' to set a new benchmark for rhythm gaming on tablet devices, and we can't wait to show off this experience to the masses," commented Joe Gilbertson, CEO, PlayPen Studios Ltd.

Skillz: The DJ Game will be featured on the DNA Dynamics Booth (#2959 South Hall) at this years Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) taking place at the Los Angeles Convention Center from June 7-9 2011.

DNA Dynamics, Inc recently announced that it had closed the acquisition contracts to acquire 100% of Slam Productions Limited and had also reduced the Authorized share capital from 950m to 350m as well as increasing the share par value from $0.0001 to $0.001 as a sign of increased faith in the share capital of the business.
