It is always a wonderful thing when music and gaming come together. It is even more wonderful when that union helps charities. Due to be released February 3, 2010 on XBox LIVE Arcade, Chime is such an example. Published by OneBigGame (a non-profit publisher of videogames formed in 2007) and developed by Zoë Mode, Chime introduces a creative twist on both music and block puzzle games. To make this event even better, proceeds from the sales of Chime will be donated to the following children’s charities to help with relief in earthquake stricken Haiti: http://www.starlight.org and http://www.savethechildren.org.uk.
Here are some videos and screenshots of Chime.
