Cerrig Peryg
Gêm gyntaf erioed iPhone Cymraeg. Or: first ever Welsh language iPhone Game.
Cerrig Peryg is a fun game for all ages set in Space where the player has to shoot up and avoid being hit by Asteroids. Head game developer Dylan Jones said "we have developed other products for the iPhone but not yet using Welsh as the main language and as a company based in Caernarfon this seems only a natural thing to do and if it is a success we will do more."
The rise in the mobile phone app market has been phenomenal with over 51,000,000 sold to date or to put it another way the same figure as the total population of Wales multiplied by 17.
BAFTA nominated and prize winning Griffilms have produced many short films and hours of animation for television including the animation for S4C satire series CNEX and the short feature based on the legend of Gelert. MD Hywel Griffith, who set up the company in 1992, said "it is an age of convergence and Apps are just another way to use our production and animation skills and if Cerrig Peryg finds support from the Welsh community we have plans to create more such content for the Welsh market." Cerrig Peryg is available for download from the app store now for only $0.99 at http://bit.ly/cerrig
