France’s Superprod collars Space Dog game for TV

French kids production house Superprod has partnered with a local social games producer to bring mobile and tablet game Space Dog to television screens.

Superprod is developing an animated series based on the game, which creator Adictiz says has been downloaded more than 25 million times worldwide in numerous languages.

Early stage developments will be presented to the industry at Kidscreen in New York next month and then at MIPTV in Cannes.

“We are thrilled with our partnership with Adictiz and enchanted to bring Space Dog to life on TV. Space Dog is also our first videogame based animation series and quite an exciting challenge. If Space Dog is already well known by kids all over the world, we want him to become a star on TV channels as well, said Superprods bosses Clément Calvet and Jérémie Fajner in a statement.
