Looks like its time for Pi...Pi Story that is.

Aeria is burning up the press release lines lately with new game information almost every day. Now the feature is Pi Story, and its open beta starting today (July 21st). Pi Story is a side scrolling 2D game that thrives on player created content using Web 2.0 among other tools. According to Aeria, Pi Story features:

• Events hosted by Game Masters such as Hide n’ Seek and Monster Spawns
• Prize giveaway that include iPod Shuffles and apparel
• User Created Content Web Diary that is unique to each player.
• Guild activity system that is strategy-based and the ability to create a guild house.
• House system where players can decorate, and modify their homes.

This is just one of the games that Aeria will be presenting at Comic-Con, so if you are heading to the show look them up (Aeria employees will be wearing shirts representing the game on which they work), and if you want more information, go to Pi Story.
