Description: RoughEdge Software is a limited liability corporation formed in the state of Arizona. Developed as a softwarehydra, which is a company with a business model that encompasses any industry and any software genre, RoughEdge Software is poised to dominate this new niche in software. By putting its customers first and delivering the end product with the lowest TCO (total cost of ownership) RoughEdge Software delivers the customized software required for company’s to reach their next level of success. RoughEdge Software is in the final stages of releasing its first video game; KuBus. KuBus will be released on the XBox 360 (XBLIG) and PC. We are also looking at releasing it for Zune (Microsoft’s mobile device) as well as other platforms such as PS3 and iPhone. KuBus will take advantage of the latest craze in casual gaming led by games like Bejeweled and others. Bejeweled since its release has generated somewhere in the neighborhood of $40 million in sales over the last two years. It’s now crossed into the social networking sites like Facebook and Myspace; potential targets for us as well. We have several other games and business applications slated for development over the next several years, with an eye on tapping into the iPhone and SaaS (Software as a Service) trends. RoughEdge has developed these products with no capital infusion other than what the founders have contributed on their own. Their commitment, determination and hundreds of hours of contributed time has gotten RoughEdge to where it is today.
