Back in 2010, Press Play developed Max & the Magic Marker for WiiWare. The game used the Wii Remote pointer as a marker pen, which could then be used to draw into the game's environments and help Max complete stages. After its success as a digital download, a budget publisher have now picked up the rights to publish it on disc format, as well as port it to the Nintendo DS.
Easy Interactive say both the Wii and DS versions will be releasing in mid-June for PAL regions, though no release dates were announced for other regions. Also, judging by Amazon's description for both versions, it doesn't look like there will be any extra content for either of them.
A brief list of features included are:
- 15 inventive and puzzling levels
- Unique drawing control in a truly dynamic physics environment
- 3 beautiful worlds inspired by children drawings
- Death traps, monsters and challenging puzzles
- Unlockable challenges, secrets and rewards
