News \ A Boy And His Blob DS - Cancelled

A Boy And His Blob DS Is Shrouded in Mist From the Gaming Community And Not Many Actual Facts Was Known About The Reason It Was Shut Down. What has been said was financial troubles delay the release and as off Q4 2007 the game was canceled.


What we do know it that there were a long way through the development process (some rumors say the game is completed) screenshots were released:




Even A Brief Description Was Written By the Company:

Imagineering Said:

The Boy from the original Blob Adventure is now 16 years old, into pop music and still into jellybeans. He still recalls the day six years ago that Blobert burst onto the scene and thrust him into a great adventure. But nobody ever believed his stories of defeating the Evil Emperor and saving Blobolonia, so he has moved on with his life. His plan to forget about the past are put on hold when one day, a spaceship crash lands and Blobert emerges, having returned to Earth to warn everyone that the Evil Emperor of Blobolonia has been in exile on Earth, of all places, building strength. He plans to enslave the population for some evil purpose and only the boy and Blobert can stop him.

Game Play Features:

* Feed Blobert over 15 different colored jellybeans and have him transform into different devices and enhancements like a ladder, trampoline, bomb, blowtorch and even a suit of armor for the boy.
* More than 15 different levels to tackle, packed with puzzles to solve and enemies to knock senseless
* Nintendo DS touch screen features to include jelly bean management and overhead map
* Customize your blob between levels at the candy shop to control you inventory of jellybeans and decide what beans you'll need for Blobert in the next level.
* Practice within the tutorial mode by making your blob jump through hoops and negotiate various obstacles



How This game Would have Turned out we will never know but from where I sit pulling the plug may have been a very smart move...

It wasn't crap on the NES, it was a very in-depth game which required some amount of skill - I enjoyed it. Who is saying the NES version was crap by the way?

NOOOOO!!! I really liked that game, it would've done so well on the DS, possibly the most original game on the DS, that featured a huge range of elements of gameplay.
