Have a Japanese PSN account? Well, lucky you! You'll be pleased to see echochrome is now available on the Japanese PLAYSTATION Store. If you have a PSP, you're in even more luck. Our sister site, PSP Fanboy, has a free downloadable demo for you to try.
echochrome is a perspective-bending puzzle game, heavily influenced by Escher. It's due for a US release in the coming months.
The demo even has English voiceovers. I'm really impressed with how they've implemented this system. There are multiple solutions to puzzles, so it doesn't feel gimmicky. Definitely a must buy.
wow my ps3 just broke yesterday man i feel terrible right now ive never had a console break before besides my 360 (twice!) still rocking my ps1, ps2, and 64 o well probaly my fault anyways >.> so is it amazing or a possible pass?
what a perfect time for my ps3 to break but hey this is my first console break besides my 360 breaking twice plus my ps1/2 and 64 still work but crap anyways tell me if its good or is if its a pass :)
Is there any fucking reason why there is no-antialiasing in the game?? Why do console developers hate anti-aliasing so much? It wouldn't be computationally expensive to implement it in this game. I have my ps3 hooked up to an hdmi enabled 1080p ready computer monitor and I can definitely notice jagged lines.
This is what people have been hyping so much? I hated it. The controls were too slow and then it thought it would be funny to just start rotating by itself. And it wasn't sixaxis desync.

I...can...not...wait...
The demo was really really really short (5-10 minutes tops) but it whet my appetite just enough to make me want it even more.

Other than that gripe, the demo was great.

I got the demo from the Taiwanese PSN, it's a nice demo, it does remind me the feeling of playing Portal ;)
Only regret, the demo is far too short...
