Echochrome: It's like being stuck in M.C. Escher's mind
We're not sure exactly what the title Echochrome means, but after the game is released, it may mean inventive puzzle gameplay. Combining M.C. Escheresque art with Crush-like gameplay, Echochrome should appeal to gamers looking for puzzle games that don't just involve falling blocks. The music in the above trailer really fits well with the game (let's hope that is actual in-game music) and gives it a moody tone. While the graphics are simple, they're unique and actually seem to add to the game. The only thing more twisted than the puzzles in Echochrome, will be your brain after playing it.
Echochrome is coming to multiple Sony systems. PS3 owners will get it in downloadable form, but PSP owners will snatch this puzzler on UMD.

Hey! This is a lot like the minigame found in Xenosaga 3, except its obviously a lot more Escherish. Cool

This is easily the most inventive game (real game, not non-game) that was at any of the three keynotes. Its simple, visually refined and elegant. I am looking forward to this whenever it comes out. Its good to be a puzzle fan if you own a psp.

Looks like a nice concept & design. Not sure if I want to shell out big bucks for too many minimalist puzzle games though.
That music really is beautiful. I too hope it's in game.
