Australian based games developer Nnooo has revealed their award-winning game escapeVektor will be coming to both the PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS. escapeVektor is a retro styled arcade game in which the player controls Vektor, an entity trapped inside the console\u2019s CPU.<\/p>\n
The player has to help Vektor escape the CPU which has been holding him captive. In making his escape, Vektor must get through obstacles and avoid enemies, each with different hunting patterns and intelligence. As the player completes the various levels in the game, escape becomes more difficult. New abilities unlock to help the player outwit and destroy the CPU\u2019s army. As the player continues through the game, old code and memories are unlocked which reveal more about Vektor\u2019s past.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were delighted by the reception the WiiWare\u2122 version of the game received,\u201d said Nic Watt, Creative Director at Nnooo. \u201cWe originally planned to have four Chapters but have now decided to roll them all into one game and bring it out on these new consoles to reach a wider audience.\u201d<\/p>\n
The new version of the game will have new enemies and obstacles, plenty of extra levels and online leaderboards. Each console\u2019s unique features will also be highlighted.<\/p>\n
\u201cPlaying the game in 3D on the Nintendo 3DS is really cool,\u201d said Watt. \u201cWith the background to each level pulsing in time to the cool chip-tune soundtrack you really get drawn into game\u2019s environment. For PlayStation Vita players we hope to make use of near\u2122 and location based leaderboards. We\u2019ll also be experimenting with the front and rear touchscreen controls.\u201d<\/p>\n
An early build of the Nintendo 3DS version of the game will be showcased at GDC.<\/p>\n
escapeVektor for PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS is scheduled for release in late 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
