Our recent work on the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen DS game has been mentioned on Kotaku recently. To wit:

And this:

“The conflicts are waged by players connecting their DS online to activate daily single-player challenges and then uploading their point tallies. Those challenges are associated with regions on a world map, and the battle continues until a faction claims all regions.”
