This interactive animated movie was made by a team composed of many former Disney artists and employees.
The game was made for arcade machines and released in 2007, but it performed poorly and was discontinued the same year. Only about fifty arcade machines of this game were released in total. Cecropia, the company that made and distributed this arcade machine game, was shut down in 2008. In 2012, the game was ported to iOS by React Entertainment and released by Chillingo, a UK based iPhone and iPad company.
