There is definitely a demo on the US PSN store (or at least there was recently). I found it immensely fun, though I haven’t yet gotten around to buying the game. It’s a very interesting physics-based platformer requiring a degree of skill to maneuver about, though I wish the visual quality was improved. Hopefully Boolat sells a ton, because I’d like to see them carry their ideas further.

And here is a favorable review: http://worthplaying.com/article/2009/8/12/reviews/64259/

I’m interested in this, but there is no demo for the original. Can’t really take the plunge without a sample.

Very fun game

Episode 2 was released in Europe a couple weeks ago and I really liked the new environments.

man plaztiksyke, you are one of the most obsessive people out certain things that really don’t matter, and one can never assume that the audio is poor purely based on the fact it used to be, you always ask the same questions of all the devs, and to 99.9% of people that stuff really doesn’t matter, idk what you do for a living but if it’s so easy etc, why don’t you start up your own studio and give us something to play

sorry, but this still appears to still have a lot of distracting aliasing artifacts and blurry textures. I assume that means the audio quality is still also poor.

the pricing is right, but until I play a demo with those shortcomings fixed, I won’t buy any episodes. you’re definitely not using all the SPUs, so dedicating one to 2X MSAA and updating your audio assets to FLAC shouldn’t be a big deal.

make another post when the episodes have been “remastered” to what Gamers expect of PSN games and then I’ll try the demo again.

I’ll be getting this tomorrow when the store is updated. I enjoyed the first part and also appreciated the free arcade style pack DLC.
