Max & the Magic Marker Hands-on

By  • 

Max & the Magic Marker, developed by Press Play, follows the story of Max and a Magic Marker that appears one day in the mail. Naturally, Max decides to draw using the marker and soon discovers his creations come to life on the paper. He draws a monster and soon realizes that it is wreaking havoc in his imaginary world. Max draws himself on the paper and so begins Max’s adventure through various worlds on his quest to stop a monster of his own creation.

The game is being developed for WiiWare and is already well on its way to becoming a great new title for the service. Max’s magic marker is a key gameplay feature of Max and the Magic Marker and is used in almost every situation as you play the game. The first few levels have various tips and tutorials on how to use the marker to get to higher platforms or across pitfalls. This can mean drawing a staircase or a simple ramp, or a bridge to get across some water. The current build of the game was on the PC so the mouse is utilized for the magic marker, but the WiiWare version will of course use the Wii Remote.

GAME ARTS ANNOUNCES THE RELEASE OF THE MAGIC OBELISK FOR WIIWARE

By  • 

NEW YORK, NY – December 21, 2009 – GAME ARTS announced today that the heartwarming action-adventure game The Magic Obelisk will be available in North America on WiiWare™ on December 28, 2009. This is the first original title in a decade from the acclaimed Japanese developer. The Magic Obelisk is an unforgettably original gameplay experience featuring fascinating characters, an extraordinary tale, and the forge of a deep friendship.

Featuring over 30 stages, The Magic Obelisk revolves around a tree spirit named Lukus. Like other tree spirits of this world, Lukus is gifted with the ability to transform into trees and is eager to use his powers to help people around the world. He is looking for the perfect place to take root and become a tree, but unfortunately the only way he can move is by shadows, a journey he cannot complete himself. Players are tasked with helping Lukus reach his goal by taking charge of Popo, a light spirit who can shine his light near the mysterious Magic Obelisks to create shadows. When Popo shines his light near one of these obelisks, he can create shadows and connect two or more shadows to help Lukus move through the level.
