Echochrome coming tomorrow


Recommended Posts

Hello PlayStation.blog readers. It?s Kumi! First, I wanted to thank everyone for reading my last post announcing the free demo for echochrome.

So as promised, I am back to tell you just when you can get your hands of the full version. echochrome will be available for you to download this THURSDAY, MAY 1 on the PlayStation Store for the PS3 and via the PC Store for the PSP. Both versions will be available for $9.99, so make sure you have funds in your wallet! There are 56 unique levels on the PS3 version, as well as 56 completely different levels on the PSP version (112 levels overall), so no matter if you are sitting at home or on the go, there are plenty of puzzles for you to wrap your brain around.

If you did not see my last post and are wondering ?What is echochrome?? It?s a fun and addictive puzzle game with really elegant and simple graphics. The concept is inspired by the famous MC Escher artwork, which explores infinity, architecture and impossible constructions. In echochrome, you control the camera and perspective on an infinite canvas, guiding a mannequin figure by carefully tilting and turning the level to create a continual pathway, allowing your character to walk safely through the design. Also, there is a Canvas mode, where you will be able to create your own puzzles from scratch and share them with your friends, or even the world! You can still download the demo for free and sharpen your skills before taking on the full version when it is released on Thursday.

Stay tuned to the Playstation blog, because later this week, I will give you some tips on creating your own mind-bending levels to play and share with friends, as well as details on getting the top user-created levels each week for free (on the PS3 version). It blew 1UP?s mind ? now it?s your turn.

Some of those levels look like they'd cause me to smash my face in :x

I kinda suck at puzzle games though :laugh:

Whats the odds that this doesn't come out in Europe?

It will... next year.

I'm applying for a job at SCEE, think even I could do a better job.

Get PJ Monsters first, it's an incredible fun and addictive game. Echochrome looks fun, but it won't be as fun as pixeljunk monsters.

I was really looking forward to this game, and I admit it kind of got lost in the crazyness of the GTA release.

I checked out the demo, and, I don't know, it is just not as good as I thought it would be.

The biggest thing was the controls. I was not using the motion sensor, so to anyone else who has played it, should I be using the six axis? Does it make it any easier? I thought the cameras were terribly difficult to control with the controller.

I may still buy it, I may not.

Wondering if there is anymore feedback on it.
