echochrome

The only thing that really impressed me during Sony's E3 press conference was a game called echochrome. Although it has a terrible name that isn't the least bit representative of what the game is, this PSP and PS3 download game looks to be a very unique and interesting puzzle game. Phil Harrison presented the game by saying it would be the game with "the least graphics and the most gameplay you will see during the show." Which is probably true, considering the game's graphics were simple black line drawings on a white background.

The game is played by manipulating your perspective on a series of impossible M. C. Esher style platforms and stairs. There is a little person, drawn to look like a wooden figure drawing model who wanders around the environment like a lemming, and you must help it navigate by moving the camera to connect and align platforms. I look forward to seeing more on this title in the future.
