E3 2008: Let's get physical with I Heart Geeks! on DS
Is there an Ecko in here?
The spirit of invention appears to be alive and well in the forthcoming I Heart Geeks! published by CDV Software Entertainment.
It's a physics-based puzzler that sees you tackling over 100 puzzles by making use of a bunch of devices such as rockets, fans and conveyor belts.
With the realistic implementation of forces such as inertia, gravity and friction CDV is promising that there will be multiple solutions to each problem. Experimentation certainly seems to be the key here, with the game encouraging you to chop, change and test your outlandish contraptions.
It certainly shouldn't lack on the presentational front either, with urban icon Mark Ecko being roped in to provide a hip art style and a humorous story about one geek's revenge on the bullying jocks.
All DS boxes are being ticked for this one, with full stylus control implementation and a two player wireless mode included.
We'll be keeping an eye on this intriguing experiment to see if it's a success.
