Stretching lines across platforms: Line Rider goes mobile too |

While the Nintendo Wii and DS version for Line Rider has already been announced, it seems that the project's product line has stretched that much further: Line Rider is set to slide onto mobile phones as well. The PC internet meme game has surely become a phenomenal hit and it's, according to Chris L's words, "right up there with JezzBall and Internet pictures of Natalie Portman." Right-o, Chris.
Anyways, anyone who's familiar with Line Rider knows that one of the biggest features (and here's when the whole "meme" factor kicks in) is that you can share your very own Line tracks to other users. Both Nintendo versions have confirmed support for this feature, and now, with a mobile version (also with "track-sharing" support) set to be released, exchanging Line tracks with your friends becomes that much "on the fly."
Create tracks on your mobile phone, share them online, transfer them to the Wii, put them on your DS... this meme from Bostjan Cadez proves to be one unending ride. In-Fusio is picking up the publishing rights on mobile, and CEO Frank Keeling says:
Line Rider is a perfect application for mobile. It's fun, simple, addictive, and viral. We look forward to expanding the robust Line Rider community to mobile phones throughout the world.
While the game has strong a "pick-up-and-play" factor, adding the mobile platform to its version line-up will definitely stretch its influence.
