Echochrome UMD - doubles the downloadable one’s price
It seems that UMD version of the Echochrome will have the double price tag compared to it’s downloadable counterpart. It makes a bit of sense with the additional levels UMD version will contain.
About this entry
Echochrome in the PS Store in March!
Like we previously reported in our short preview of Sony’s upcoming puzzler - Echochrome, it is bound to show up in the PS Store. Now we have the date when that will happen. You have until March to prepare yourself for some sense overturning action when you will be twisting and turning world upside down to save your stick-man. Sony has not released much details about PSP version of the game except the date, but it is speculated that the price will fall in $25-$30 range. Not as low as we hoped it will be but we’re really interested in this game.
About this entry
Echochrome - Preview
A world where your common sense is overturned - thats the slogan for the upcoming Echochrome, and after seeing the trailer posted below, we believe it. Echochrome will feature puzzle based levels with approach simmilar to mixture of Lemmings and C.R.U.S.H. Stick figure will go on madly through the world while it’s up to you to change current viewing angle of the camera and affect the game world.
So similarly to C.R.U.S.H., viewing a game world from different angle will allow your stick-figure to go from one point to another, avoid holes in the ground and eventually come out to the other side of the puzzle. Dropping from one point to another, which are not by far connected, or avoiding gapping holes by covering them with another piece of the in-game world are just some of the features of this game. Unlike the C.R.U.S.H. Echochrome will not feature different types of “blocks”, but just one type - solid. You either have ground beneath your feet or not, or it seems so at the moment.
To achieve all this, Sony has in-house developed a Object Locative Environment Coordinate System, or for short OLE System, on which Echochrome is based on. OLE System was developed by Jun Fujiki, and hugely inspired by the eye-candy paintings of M.C. Escher. Echochrome will be available through download on PlayStation Store.
