News: Draw Your Own Hero
Posted 23 Apr 2006 at 16:38 by guest
New DS adventure lets you draw the games hero and bring him/her to life.
From developers 5th Cell, more known for moblie phone games such as Full Spectrum Warrior, comes Drawn to Life for the Nintendo DS. The game is set around a dying village which you as "the creator" must save. The remaining inhabitants of the village need you to bring back all their lost possessions such as the sun, moon, fruit trees, fish, rain clouds, plants, animals and more!
However, you cannot recreate these items without a set of blueprints, so you must collect the "Template pages" for each object. To make the situation even more difficult, each page has been torn up and scattered across the world. To do this, the player must create their own heroes, a Creation specifically suited to fly, run, jump, swim or smash their way through snowy fields, tropical islands, dark forests, crowded cities and grassy hills.
Once you've secured a requested Template, you can enter the village, draw it and place it somewhere in the village. While in the village you can hang out and interact with the inhabitant's and your own Hero Creations. Follow them around and see their reaction to your work!
When Drawn to Life is eventually finished, the game will feature two modes of play. "Village Mode" is a full-featured option where you interact with the villagers and help to repopulate their village. "Challenge Mode" is more of a side-scrolling adventure where you control your Hero Creations to gain back the Template pages.
