Within its category, Space Heroes Universe was up against serious competition including Walt Disney’s Jake and the Never Land Pirates, Square-Enix’s Final Fantasy and Nintendo’s Pokemon.

Now in its seventh year, the Pixel Awards have since 2006 taken a fresh look at the best on the web. The awards honor compelling creative content design and development in 24 diverse categories with thousands of entrants from around the world.

“Storytelling is at the heart of everything we do.” said Phil Mason, Bubble Gum Interactive CEO“Our global fan base of kids and families have told us they love the pilot cartoon so we’re excited to announce that we’re already in production on episode 2, with more to follow during 2013!”

Based on the  multi-award winning kids virtual world, the Space Heroes Universe cartoon tells the tale of the intrepid Space Heroes Ace, Kira, Professor Q and their friends as they embark on an intergalactic adventure to rescue the life-giving glows. Together, they pit themselves against the“I-wish-I-was-more-evil” Lord Shadowbot and his long suffering sidekicks who plan to steal all the glows and bring darkness to the galaxy.

The cartoon is freely available via the official  Google Play and coming soon to the Apple iTunes store.
