Los Angeles-based videogame developer Seriously--which is backed by Upfront Ventures, Northzone, Korea Investment Partners, Sunstone Capital and Daher Capital--has just rolled out a new promotional video, which features Kate Walsh of Grey's Anatomy and YouTube stars Joey Graceffa and Rosanna Pansino. The new video plays off the themes of obsessive videogaming by users and Walsh's role on Grey's Anatomy. Best Fiends was released in October of 2014, and Seriously says it has 2 million daily active players on the game, which has been downloaded over 40 million times. YouTube star Joey Graceffa is known for hosting "Escape the Night", a YouTube series featuring competitors trying to escape from bizarre situations, and Rosanna Pansino, known for her YouTube series Nerdy Nummies, where she makes tech-culture food items (i.e. Unicorn Emoji Cookies, Pokeman Ice Cream cones).
