(OTCQB: SPYR), a holding company with wholly owned subsidiaries in the mobile game and app publishing and development industry and the food service industry, today announced that its subsidiary, SPYR APPS, LLC, has \"soft\" launched its first third-party published game, Retro Shot, in select overseas markets for testing.  Retro Shot is a retro-style arcade game that is fully equipped with neon lights, an original 80's synthwave soundtrack, free-to-play game mechanics and monetization.  The game is being co-published with its developer, SuperPlus Games, a Finnish company founded by former Rovio employees who were part of the team that worked on \"Angry Birds.\"\n\nRetro Shot has been in development throughout 2015 and has now been soft launched in select overseas markets in the Google Play Store.  A soft launch in the Apple App Store is expected to follow early this month.  A full launch of the game in both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store is anticipated in late January, once early data is collected and analyzed and the hard launch version is finalized after making adjustments based upon data gathered during the soft launch. \n\nThe three founders of SuperPlus Games have almost 30 years of combined experience in the mobile games development industry and have been involved in the development of more than 70 titles, including such Finnish success stories as Angry Birds and the Flatout Series.\n\nThe development team describes Retro Shot as a unique combination of mini golf and 80's pinball games.  Retro Shot has a very special soundtrack to complement its retro aesthetic.  Finnish game musician Tommi Salomaa and SuperPlus are planning to release the sound track on Spotify when the game is fully launched.\n\nPaul Thind, Managing Director of Games & Applications com...
