We’re tickled to announce that Sissy’s Magical Ponycorn Adventure is a finalist for TWO categories in the Canadian Videogame Awards!

Ponycorns has placed in the following categories:

• Best Social/Casual Game
• Best New Character (Sissy)

With the launch of Sissy’s Magical Ponycorn Adventure on the Apple iPad and Blackberry Playbook last June, 5-year-old Cassandra Creighton became the world’s youngest commercial game developer. Ponycorns became a viral hit and has won fans worldwide with its hand-drawn crayon art, voiceover, characters and puzzle design by the imaginative kindergartener. Ponycorns players have donated generously to Cassie’s college education fund, and have flocked to the Untold Store to pick up Ponycorn swag. Cassie continues to dream up new game designs with mixed media design documents that incorporate crayons, markers, glue, buttons, and feathers.

The Canadian Videogame Awards ceremony takes place on Saturday, April 21st, 2012.
