Interactive Project, the Italian start-up and leading creator and developer of strategy and managerial motorsport games for mobile and the web, will be attending Gamescom in Cologne from 21 to 25 August 2013. The company has enjoyed great success with MyGPTeam Career, a Formula 1–inspired managerial browser game all about running your own racing team in detail, with 60,000+ registered users worldwide. At Gamescom, Interactive Project will be presenting its updated MyGPTeam Turbo game, featuring enhanced gameplay and new 3D graphics. “Gamescom is a very important event for us right now,” says Interactive Project CEO Matteo Palumbo, “as one of our games is about to go on public release on Google Play.” The new game is available as a private beta version for Android smartphones; in just a few days, it has already gained 5,000 users, many from Italy and Brazil. “MyGPTeam Turbo is an innovative step forward in racing games for mobiles,” continues Matteo Palumbo. “Players run the team motorhome and get right to the heart of the action, talking to their driver from the pits and controlling tactics during the race.” The new version has evolved from the demo released in late March. It features fully 3D graphics, and the player has several mini-games and circuits during the race to challenge other players in fast, gripping multi-player games to win experience points and to improve their own car. From 22 to 25 August, Interactive Project will be glad to invite visitors to stand C011 in hall 10.1 at the Gamescom Entertainment area to try a sneak preview of its fantastic MyGPTeam Turbo game. There will be tournaments to enter and free themed gadgets to take home.

Another important piece has been added to the path towards Interactive Project internationalization. With only a few days left before the Monte Carlo Grand Prix, Interactive Project is very proud to announce the conclusion of the agreement with the French publisher Hexagame. “This partnership will give us the opportunity to publish MyGPTeam in all French-speaking countries, led by France and Canada. The localization and marketing services that HexaGame will undertake will give us even more visibility thus acquiring a greater number of users from those countries as well” says Interactive Project CEO Matteo Palumbo. “We’re very proud to have secured this deal with the talented team of Interactive Project”, says Nicolas Vincent, CEO of Hexagame. “We’re looking forward to bringing MyGPTeam to all french-speaking players.”

Interactive Project, the leader in managerial games for motorsports, takes the opportunity of “Game Connection America 2013” to announce that it has opened up to an initial group of groundbreakers to participate in the preview stage of its new exciting “MyGPTeam Turbo“ game. The multi-platform game, recently released in private beta as Android mobile app and web app, will allow the casual gamer to start a managerial career in the world of car sports inspired by Formula 1. ”With MyGPTeam Turbo” says Interactive Project CEO Matteo Palumbo, "in just a few minutes you can choose the circuit and the race strategy and enter a 'race-room' to challenge other online players in short races. The game has been designed for those who would like to live and share with friends the thrilling experience to manage a Formula 1-like team”. The new game is perfectly suited to complement ”MyGPTeam”, the managerial game for hardcore Formula 1 fans played by more than 50,000 players worldwide. Thanks to its partnership with publishers in Europe and South America, Interactive Project is planning another hit with “MyGPTeam Turbo” and is taking the opportunity of “Game Connection” to further broaden its partner portfolio for both games.

Interactive Project, the Italian start-up leader of the online managerial motor games, has announced today to have raised €400k by a group of investors led by LVenture. The startup, which successfully completed the incubation period at EnLabs, will use the proceeds to finance the international expansion of MyGPTeam, its first managerial browser-based game inspired by Formula 1. “The rapid adoption of our game by international users has convinced us to speed up the internationalization”, said Matteo Palumbo, CEO of Interactive Project, “so, after having closed the first international distribution agreements, we have to accelerate the graphic development and the integration of features that will make it easier for us to address the Asian markets”. “MyGPTeam clearly showed to be an extremely engaging game,” said Luigi Capello, CEO of LVenture that invested also in the micro-seed round, “convincing us of the opportunity to invest in a team which demonstrates an uncommon ability to scale at the international level”. Use of proceeds will enable Interactive Project to reach over 100.000 international subscribers by June 2013.
