    We're finally coming out of stealth mode...

    The formal marketing-speak is "Bamboo Bunch (bamboobunch.com) is an Internet destination for families, where kids can learn, play, and explore in a safe environment. Bamboo Bunch is updated weekly, so there is always something new to do."

    In developer-speak, we have a family portal, with some casual games and a growing virtual world. We're developing at a maddeningly rapid rate and eschewing the notion of "feature complete," something that would not be possible without Unity.

    Bamboo Bunch is online at http://bamboobunch.com. A few random screenshots are online at http://bamboobunch.com/parents.html. The whole thing is being developed by Benxing Entertainment (http://benxing.com).

    Congratulations on such an expansive release!
    My six-year-old son liked the island and the hit the birds with the beach ball game the best and my three-year-old daughter liked the crystal forest best.
    It would be interesting to see how your site does and how you go about promoting it now that you have put so much time into making it (I am curious how long it took how many people to build!).
    I think this site is a really good use of the technologies available and shows how useful Unity can be in developing complex online "worlds".
    Keep at it!

    Great work! And welcome out of stealth mode... sometimes the fact that so many cool projects are in stealth mode makes me sad :)
