The company behind popular services such as Toontastic and TeleStory will be joining Google. Launchpad Toys announced today that it has been acquired by the Mountain View giant and will continue to create digital toys and tools. The aforementioned current offerings will become available to everyone at no cost as the company works on new projects. In fact, Launchpad Toys could share a peek of its future as soon as tomorrow.



Here is the statement from Launchpad Toys on the company site:



We’re proud to announce that our little toy company is pairing up with a great big team of tinkerers to empower GAJILLIONS of playful storytellers around the world. Launchpad Toys is joining Google to create even more amazing creativity tools for kids. Today, we’ve made our digital toys and tools free to creative kids everywhere. Tomorrow… well, we can’t wait to share :)

Ironically, none of Launchpad Toys’ services are available on Android. Both Toontastic and TeleStory are iOS-only for the Apple iPad. The acquisition of Launchpad Toys likely means that Google will be directing the company to give attention to Android.
