From the Press Release
With a goal of turning the stories of the Bible into a video game for all ages to enjoy, Ruben and Efraim Meulenberg, internet phenomenon and identical twins known as the "Tornado Twins," have launched a Kickstarter, http://www.TheGameBible.com, to raise funds to develop several episodes about David, including the story of David and Goliath.

"The Game Bible Series" will be an epic 52-episode video game series to be released on multiple platforms and set to cover the entire Bible from Adam to Jesus, allowing the gamer to experience the entire biblical narrative in a side-scroller format -- a game-genre where character, story and world-exploration come together.

The Meulenberg brothers have set a goal of $35,000 on Kickstarter, a crowd-funding social media site, to fund the first three episodes of the story of David. The first 10 episodes entitled "David, Rise of a King" will be fully funded at $380,000. Those interested in helping to fund "The Game Bible Series" have several options for donating, $5 and up. Each level of giving will allow a different level of access to "The Game Bible Series" before it is available to the general public.

"The stories of the Bible have everything needed to make an epic game – adventure, deceitful and courageous characters, miracles, giants, armies, war and the list goes on," said Efraim Meulenberg, lead developer. "If you are very familiar with the stories of the Bible, this game will make you feel like you are experiencing the stories for the first time. But, even if you're not familiar, this game will be an action-packed adventure that will leave you wanting more."

"The Game Bible Series" will be a family-friendly game, specifically geared toward families with children ages 6-18. In the fashion of the Mario Brothers and Rayman games, "The Game Bible Series" will be void of gore or over-the-top violence, and fun and enjoyable for all ages. The Meulenbergs worked with a number of experienced game developers to create the high-quality graphics and infrastructure of the game and theological scholars to ensure accuracy and adherence to the Bible.

"Quality is of upmost importance to us," said Ruben Meulenberg, lead writer. "To ensure a high level of gameplay, several experts who have been involved in the making of 'Assassins' Creed' PSP, 'Stargate' PSP and the Lego games have weighed in on this project."

"The twins bring infectious energy and passion to everything they do and execute with the utmost competence and professionalism," said Chris King, CEO at SpeedTree, Creators of effects used in Batman Arkham City, Destiny, Battlefield 4, and more.

The Meulenberg brothers are versed media artists, programmers, consultants and the creators of FPS Control. As experienced professionals in the media industry, their training materials have trained over 20,000 musicians and 40,000 game and app developers globally, including Disney Mobile.
