Hey PlayStation junkies! This is Scott Hyman from TikGames/Creat Studios, back yet again to announce our latest and greatest title for the PlayStation Network. We’ve been working hard on this one for a while, and everyone here is very excited to finally announce our newest action platformer, Wakeboarding HD!

Do you like fast-paced arcade games? Do you like wacky, over-the-top tricks and stunts? Do you like crazy, high-speed racing and obstacle courses? Do you like beautiful, serene, tropical settings? Do you like wreaking havoc and chaos in beautiful, serene, tropical settings? (If you answer no to all of these… what are you doing here, anyway?) If so, then Wakeboarding HD is just the game you’ve been waiting for.

And you won’t need to wait much longer. Wakeboarding HD will be available on the PlayStation Network on Thursday, 18th March in Europe, and on 25th March in North America, for €14.99/$14.99.

Throw back to the non-stop action from the best of 90’s arcades, while embracing the highly realistic killer waves that only the might of the PlayStation 3 can bring you. Wakeboarding HD drops players into 20 top-velocity, water-filled levels to maneuver through tracks, perform high-flying tricks, collect bonuses and avoid dangers from exploding mines to bloodthirsty sharks. (Seriously… sharks!) Show your skills and transform the South Pacific paradise resort into an action-packed extreme playground.

Jump onto docks and over boats, balance on rails and waves, and launch over buildings and landmarks. Flip, grab, roll, and spin as you hurl across the water and through the air. Smash through billboards and boats, splash the skimpily clad tourists. Race against your buddy in any mission with side-by-side split screen action.

Sound cool? Don’t just take our word for it. Check out what the trusty folks from TheSixthAxis.com had to say about Wakeboarding HD. We’re confident that you’ll enjoy the insanity as much as they did.

As always, a big… no, HUGE thank you to all of our fans and customers! We love what we do, and we can’t do it without you all. Please let us know what you think of Wakeboarding HD, and what else you would like to see from TikGames/Creat Studios.

Enjoy!

Hi PlayStation junkies! Scott Hyman from Creat Studios here, yet again. Everyone at Creat has been quite busy making new games for PlayStation Network and PSP, and we will be announcing all kinds of new games in the coming months.

Today, I’m here to let you know about our free-to-play demo version of the Digger HD, available in Europe on Thursday, 18th February. We have received countless emails complimenting our 21st century update of the 80’s PC classic. Yet many folks have asked for the opportunity to try before they buy, so we made it happen.

Digger HD is a remake of the classic PC game, Digger, from the early 80s. We worked hard to provide the old-school title a major facelift for the new millennium, while staying true to its classic gameplay. You get to control a little construction vehicle that makes its way through an underground maze. Dig through the dirt (and ice!) horizontally and vertically to create your own path while collecting power-ups, jewels, coins and other bonuses. Oh, and be sure to avoiding the pursuing monsters.

The full game features local co-operative multiplayer, and a vintage mode that throws you back to 1983, complete with original graphics and sounds. After giving the demo a try, you can purchase the full version right then and there.

As always, we want to give a very heartfelt thank you to everyone that has been buying and playing our games. Everyone at Creat Studios greatly appreciates your support, and we couldn’t do what we love with you. Please continue to send your ideas, thoughts and suggestions!

Hi everyone! It’s Scott Hyman, back yet again with news about more fun content from TikGames-Creat Studios. I hope everyone enjoyed a great holiday season.

First off, we’re making a change… the coolest brick-breaker on the PlayStation Network has a new name, and some great new content to go along with it.

What was once Magic Ball is now MAGIC ORBZ!

So, I know what you’re thinking: “That is the greatest name that I’ve ever heard in the history of gaming, and I wish that I thought of it myself.” No, that’s not it? OK, then it’s “I am so impressed. Everything really does sound much better if you just add a ‘z’ at the end.” Not that, either? How about “Well, now that it’s called Magic Orbz, I simply have to play it. How could I possibly pass that up?” See… that IS what you’re thinking. You just don’t know it yet.

But seriously, we like the sound of it, and we like to play it even more. And to make you really love the name, we made a new Add-On Pack so you can stay up super-late trying to beat every new level and lose even more sleep while singing the praises of Magic Orbz.

For those of you not familiar, Magic Orbz presents a fresh spin on classic brick-breaking gameplay, enabling players to bust apart bright, colorful 3D environments, piece by piece. Using realistic physics and a super-high-tech system of object destruction, Magic Orbz is presented in stunning 1080p with Multiplayer Online and in-game live voice communications.

The new Winter Theme Add-On Pack is filled with penguins, igloos, polar bears, and lots and lots of snow and ice, featuring 25 new levels to creatively destroy, and new trophies to discover. The Winter Theme Pack will be available for €2.99/£1.99 on January 7th in Europe.

For those that have already enjoyed the wonder of Magic B… err, Magic Orbz, a patch is available to properly re-name your favorite PSN game!

As always, everyone at TikGames-Creat Studios thanks you all for your support, your feedback, and your purchase. We all work very hard to bring you great games, and we make sure to read everything that comes our way from our fans. We can’t do what we love without you!

Hi everyone! This is Scott Hyman, Director of Business Development at Creat Studios along with Jason Benham, Producer and Creator of Bubble Trubble, our new PSP mini game. Bubble Trubble will be available for download on the PlayStation Store on Thursday, November 12 for €4.99.

Almost everyone loves puzzle games, but the “Match 3 colors” concept has become so tired that we just had to tuck in into bed and put it sleep. On a quest to create a new color matching challenge, Jason was inspired to develop a new game where bubbles of the same color fuse together into one upon contact, and grow, grow, grow until they pop.

As bubbles grow, on-screen space gets more and more crowded. If the bubbles don’t expand enough to pop, all that room gets filled and the game ends. However, if enough like-colored bubbles are combined, they burst with points, bonuses and much more on-screen space to keep on playing.

Bubble Trubble is a single player game with two modes of gameplay:

• Survival Mode allows players achieve the highest score by matching and popping the increasingly faster onslaught of colored bubble clusters.
• Challenge Mode presents specific set tasks for players to enhance their skills, such as only popping certain colored bubbles or preventing bubbles from getting too big.

Create Studios is very excited to present our next game for the PSP mini program, and we are very confident that you will love Bubble Trubble. And remember… to avoid any Trubble, you’ve gotta burst your Bubble!

Thanks again to all of our fans, and please keep your comments and suggestions coming!

Hey everyone! It’s Scott at Creat Studios again, here to tell you about our seventh (yes… seventh!) release for PlayStation Network in 2009. Our new RTS, Mushroom Wars, will be available for €9.99 / £7.99 on Thursday, October 15th.

Now, you’re asking, what exactly is Mushroom Wars? Do I have to battle evil, killer mutant zombie mushrooms? Well, as cool as that might sound, (hmmm… maybe there’s a future PSN release!), you don’t battle the mushrooms themselves, but you will do battle for the mushrooms. Mushroom Wars is a fast-paced and accessible RTS, with a quaint, anime-inspired visual style, where you send your cute armies into battle, upgrade your mushroom bases, improve your weaponry and fight skirmishes in close-quarter maps.

You can play against the AI or kick your friends’ butts in Campaign mode. The Skirmish mode lets you quickly jump right into battles. Local multiplayer allows up to four players to tough it out to see who’s the baddest army in the meadow.

We’re very excited about Mushroom Wars, and we’re confident that you’ll have a great time. Whether you’re pursuing a full Campaign, or in the mood for a quick, five minute RTS battle to jump-start your morning, Mushroom Wars is simply great fun.

Creat Studios wishes to continue to thank all of our fans who have played our PSN games this year. We greatly appreciate your support and your feedback. We can’t do it without you!
