N+ Is Coming So Stock Up On Points!
A while back, my fellow teabagger and Guitar Hero-ing cohort OwningXylophone turned me on to a little game called N, a free platformer that involves ninjas, switches, moving platforms, and jumping around collecting gold. To anyone who hasn’t played it, it looks ridiculously basic and featureless - but to those who are really into it, N is a crack-like distillation of concentrated platforming essence in it’s purest form.
Well, soon Xbox Live users should find themselves getting hooked, thanks to the all-new N+. Somehow it’s “new and improved” over the Windows, Linux, and Mac versions we know and love, so let’s hope they didn’t mess it all up with fancy graphics and things just to please the Playstation Generation.
This version won’t be free, though - it’s 800 points. Then again, it does come with 450 levels of bouncy ninja goodness (with more coming along soon), and it also allows up to 8 people to get in on the gold-collecting fun together via Xbox Live.
N FTW!
I’ve been playing it all evening now, and I can confidently conclude that this game is every kind of awesome - and I’m talking every single tiny little possible kind ever devised by man. This is the most awesome game since Portal, in fact.
Yes, it’s that good.
Also, you can use the level editor to draw a big cock and balls and then jump around all over them… Maturity FTW!
