Ottawa-based developer Fuel Industries has launched a AllGirlArcade.com, an online entertainment portal targeted at young girls, providing casual games, user memberships, a point and rewards systems, an online mall, and the ability to play cooperatively with other girls. The studio also plans to release an accompanying MMOG in fall.

Along with feature articles and interviews with females in the game development industry, the site features a team of intergalactic female video game champions, The All Girl Star Squad. A series of animated "webisodes" set the tone for All Girl Arcade and serve as inspiration for the set of availabl web games. The planned MMOG will revolve around the All Girl Arcade universe, featuring characters and locations from the story.

Third party games will also eventually be hosted on the network in order to add to All Girl Arcade's offerings. Fuel Industries hopes to one day expand on the concept with a cross-media venture, involving movies, merchandise, and television.
