SONGBIRD ANNOUNCES CGE2K LINEUP

June 9, 2000

For immediate release:

ROCHESTER, MN -- Songbird Productions recently unveiled its plans
for new products to be available at Classic Gaming Expo 2000,
which will be held in Las Vegas at the Jackie Gaughan Plaza Hotel
during July 29-30.

Topping off the list is the long-awaited release of Crystal Mines
II: Buried Treasure. This Win-95/98/00 software allows consumers
to build, swap, and download new levels on their existing Crystal
Mines II Lynx game cartridge. Over 50 brand new levels are
included, as well as the original 150+ CM2 levels. Plus, it
includes all the tools and documentation needed to help anyone
get started designing their own levels. MSRP for CM2:BT is $29.95
for the CD, and $49.95 for the CD and Lynx-to-PC cable.

In an unexpected move, Songbird also announced the availability
of a "CGE2K special edition" version of Remnant, the highly-
anticipated 3D space combat game for the Lynx. "This is a game
no Lynx fan should be without," commented Carl Forhan, owner
of Songbird and the developer of Remnant. "It puts the Lynx
into high gear -- from the explosions to the 3D scaling to the
audio, Remnant sets a new standard for 'next generation' Lynx
games." This special edition of Remnant is a complete game, and
features more than a dozen sectors to clear in the Arcade play
mode. A future version of Remnant is anticipated to include a
Strategic play mode as well, where the player must repel enemy
squadrons and protect friendly outposts. MSRP for Remnant is
$39.95.

Not to leave Jaguar fans out, Songbird also has plans to offer
for sale a new Rapid Fire Controller for the Atari Jaguar. Carl
explained the benefits of the new controller: "Titles such as
Zero 5 and Raiden are great games on the Jaguar, but can suffer
from slow fire rates which force the player to mash buttons
repeatedly. The RFC is simply a modified 18-button controller
with a special circuit that allows the player to enable or
disable multiple fire rates on the A and B buttons." The RFC has
been tested by several individuals and received very favorable
feedback so far. MSRP for the RFC is $39.95. Only limited
quantities will be available for sale at CGE2K.

Songbird Productions is the premier developer and publisher for
the Atari Lynx and Jaguar. To keep up to date with the latest
