The Banff Venture Forum's last session in the Information Technology stream is happening this afternoon at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel. Wesley Clover pitchman Ben Morris is on the stage again today promising to blow our minds with GlitchSoft - he pitched on behalf of WC-financed Teldio yesterday.

Founded in late 2009 Ottawa-based GlitchSoft is an independent game studio that produces and publishes games for the iOS platform using its own proprietary game development engine and tool set, called the Helios Game Engine.

To date, GlitchSoft has published 4 titles on the iOS platform (including Bar Star and Destructopus) accounting for one million downloads. Of these 200,000 were paid downloads and 800,000 were free games focused on in-game monetization.

GlitchSoft is backed by investment from the Wesley Clover Group of Companies and has received funding as a part of Wesley Clover’s Digital Media Portfolio. Through the portfolio, GlitchSoft has access to in-house digital entertainment, live action, and animation studios. All of which allow GlitchSoft to maximize flexibility for production while maintaining efficiency.
