We have been working hard on improving the character art of Mzito these past few months and would love to know what you think of the new and improved Mzito Characters.
They were drawn using 64 x 64 pixels which allowed us to add more depth to their look.

What is the French Tech Ticket ? It is a program where 70 startups from all over the world are selected and will join 41 startup incubators in France for a period of 12 Months to grow their companies and their products.
We are both honored to not only represent Kenya and Africa in this program but the growing gaming industry in the continent. Due to this our team will be split working from both Lille, France and Nairobi, Kenya.
During this 12 month program, Weza Interactive Ent. will be incubated at Plaine Images. Which is a work space for creativity and economic development dedicated to digital media and creative industries. It is an ecosystem for digital media composed of thriving start-ups and companies offering a vast array of skills.
We believe 2017 will be a game changer for us and the gaming industry in Kenya . A lot of great things are coming . The Awakening has begun and it began in Africa .
Besides continuous updates on Mzito we have been working on a short gameplay trailer . Check it our below and let us know what you think . Dont forget to share!
The time is now … no more wars against brothers and sisters , no more shall our hearts be filled with sadness, desperation and corruption . Rise up Africa and weep no more.
Open their eyes Mama Africa . Open the eyes of your children
Wake them up from the deep slumber
Let them see the vultures, hovering up in the sky
Patiently waiting, waiting for their corpses
Let them unite and reason
Let them embrace one another with warmth
Warmth of their creative ideas
Created in their own soil by their own hands
Let your children arise and dance
Dance to the greater heights of Kilimanjaro
Let them sing, sing of a future
A fearless future of consciousness,
A future of hope, a future of a proud Africa
By her children

Over the past month we have been working on the finishing touches on Mzito and if everything goes according to schedule we should be releasing in the next 2 weeks! . Today I would like to share with you some of our latest updates which include new items in the Mzito Kiosk plus brand new levels inspired by more African locations . Please let us know what you think.
Do you feel the Awakening ? The raging vibrations from the land that will bring forth the new beginning . Like slowly rising tremors in our chests it brings hope. Its harmony unconsciously bringing us together in unity. The future is bright and we are that light.
So I ask again Mzito , do you feel the Awakening?
“Voice of the Ancestors”
