Curve Studios show Explodemon trailer, new PSN/PC/XBLA game

Curve Studios have revealed they are working on a new downloadable game for PSN/PC/XBLA. The game goes by the name Explodemon, and is best described as a parody of the platform action/puzzler genre (i.e. Mega Man). The game sees Explodemon, who is prone to exploding, both jumping and exploding his way through 2.5D styled levels.

Mixing classic platforming action – from classics such as Mario and MegaMan – with the refined contemporary gameplay of Halo and Half-Life 2, it brings old-school gameplay bang up to date. Coming from Curve’s deep-seated love of video game culture and history, Explodemon! is wrapped up as a loving homage to SNES-era Japanese action games,comments Curve on their official site.

The game is currently set for a 2009 release.
