Have you driven on the highway past downtown and seen the Hyper Hippo in bright blue letters on the side of a new building? Just like me you must have wondered what that is.
Well, Hyper Hippo was highlighted this week by Accelerate Okanagan.
Hyper Hippo is a game design studio right here in Kelowna, whose games are played by millions around the world. Hyper Hippo uses a lean approach to game design.
They have a creative and experienced team that releases a new game every month. Their Adventure Capitalist is an award winning and record breaking game.
Hyper Hippo is the leading independent game studio thanks to its endless pursuit of fun and innovation.
Things happen in threes, so you shouldn’t be surprised that Deb Dunnigan and Karyn Mackenzie have opened the third Dunnenzie’s Pizza at Airport Landing.
Dunnenzie’s Pizza is known for great pizza and calzones, but yesterday I was told I needed to try their white pizzas. After reading their menu they are absolutely right, I need to try their white pizzas and so should you!
Their new location is eat in or take out and offers different lunch combo’s every day. See you there.
Motovida Cycle is turning three tomorrow and they are celebrating all day.
From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., they will have special pricing, food and beverages plus test rides on their Motto Guzzis and Aprilias. They will also be introducing their REV’IT motorcycle clothing and gear.
From 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. join them for the birthday party with Devon Coyote playing live music in the back. Go and share this experience with others that love a life on two wheels.
The third three is the announcement of the third annual Brewphoria at the Tree Beer Institute.

Congratulations to Christina Marcano because she has just launched I Dress Myself.
I Dress Myself is a unique kids clothing company that provides all kinds of styles for kids. I wish they had the Rock and Roar Tee in my size.
Christina has been on Dragon’s Den twice and it seems like entrepreneurship runs in the family because her mom started a clothing company called Silver Icing when she was small.
I Dress Myself has stylists right across Canada and they are always looking for more people who like to be their own boss too. Visit their website to find out more.
