Pluto Games offers an educational iPad game that combines scrolling gameplay dynamics with musical notes to introduce children to piano. The app, described in the article as Pluto Leans Piano (also referred to as Pluto Plays Piano), follows a penguin named Pluto learning songs and awards stars for level performance. Children can learn simple tunes like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and classical pieces such as The Magic Flute, Ode to Joy, and Swan Lake. The game is free to download and uses star-based progression to unlock new songs. The company plans to expand with music and education tablet games in other verticals soon. Pluto Games was founded by Luis Sampedro and recently completed a seed financing, which impacts its current funding runway.
