Touch! Kirby Magic Paintbush Details - NDS

30th October 2004, 2:38pm
Touch! Kirby Magic Paintbrush is a brand new Nintendo DS platformer revealed in the newest Famitsu magazine. Kirby comes across a sorceress who changes the world into a painting. Kirby is then turned into a ball...well, more of a ball.

Players will use a 'Magic Paintbrush' (cough stylus cough) left behind by the sorceress to move Kirby around the environment. Although the world already has some areas of land and platforms, you'll have to draw lines onto the screen to cover up the holes and dodge enemies. You can draw lines anywhere, and even draw loops and spirals. The scribbles will gradually fade away, so it's set to be a fast-paced game. The top screen will show the ever-changing map. Players will also tap Kirby himself to speed up and charge into enemies. There has been no mention of any of his copy abilities in the game.

Be sure to stay tuned to Gamebiz for more info on this crazy game, but while you're waiting you should glance at the pictures on this scan.
