Indie Developer, Straw Dog Studios just released a video for the upcoming (Spring 2010) XBLA Arcade Peggle-esque Space Ark. Bounce that penguin up into the fruits, and score yourself a healthy snack! Following are the features the developers are boasting about:
- Trigger a ‘Fruit Frenzy’. Collecting same-colour combos of three or more DNA blocks forms the falling fruit to be gathered by your Arkonaut or Bounce Pad.
- Max your score with ‘Level Up’. Fruit fuels your Power Meter and each Level Up increases your score multiplier.
- You want seriously huge scores? Longer combos yield better fruit to fill the Power Meter even quicker and reach the higher score-multiplying Level Ups. There’s 21 different fruit to gather, ranging from the modest cherry created by a 3 block combo to the magnificent melon created by the ultimate 15 block combo which fills your Power Meter by a whopping 33%.
- You want even more? Grab B O N U S to unlock the ‘Bonus Stage’ and feast on falling fruit to boost your score.
PR-speak aside, it sounds like it could be a sweet addition to the Peggle-lover’s arsenal. Keep an eye here for more details, as they arrive. For now, enjoy the trailer and screenshots.
