Hi everyone, my name is Johnny Coghlan and I’m Head of Publishing for Chillingo. I’m posting on the PlayStation.Blog to confirm that Chillingo’s record-breaking physics game, Angry Birds, is going to release for PlayStation minis!

In Angry Birds, players take control of a flock of different birds as they attempt to retrieve their precious eggs from a fiendish group of thieving pigs. The pigs have taken refuge within levels containing structures made up of materials such as wood, glass and stone. There are over 100 levels to play through! The object of the game is to catapult the birds into the pigs and their protective barriers, in order to eliminate the pigs and rescue the eggs.

Each level gives the player a certain number of birds to catapult at the pigs using a giant slingshot. There are six different types of bird, each with its own appearance, weight, sound effects and special abilities such as exploding or splitting into three mini-birds for maximum impact! If the birds hit the pigs or knock a piece of material onto a pig, the pig may explode into thin air and disappear.

When all of the pigs are defeated without the player running out of birds to catapult, the level is complete and a new level is unlocked! Players may re-attempt levels as many times as they wish, and may also replay completed levels to score more points and achieve more reward stars.

Angry Birds for minis features all of the content that has made it a record-breaking addictive success! Controls are instinctive, meaning that anyone can play the game straight away, while visuals are optimized for the PSPgo to ensure the overall experience is the best it can be on the platform.

This is going to be a hit release when it launches soon! For more information on Angry Birds you can visit Chillingo.com now!

Hi everyone, my name is Ralph Egas and I am the producer and lead programmer at Abstraction Games. We are the developer of Chillingo’s Dracula – Undead Awakening for PSP minis, which releases in Europe, Australia and New Zealand on Thursday, November 26, 2009!

Having been through the development process for PSP minis, we are convinced that Dracula – Undead Awakening feels and plays perfectly on the PSP, and of course we hope that you’ll agree! We have put our heart and soul into developing this game, with a result of an amazingly playable, enjoyable experience.

Because of the PSP’s great hardware capacity, abilities and dedicated gaming power, we are able to provide you with a one-time loading mechanism that speeds up starting the game and subsequent play sessions by a tremendous amount; it’s almost embarrassing! The always-available built-in Save feature lets you pause and stop playing whenever you need to, and you can start up and continue again at any time you wish.

Furthermore, the game runs at a stunning 60 frames-per-second at all times. This frame count makes the game look amazing. It allows for a groundbreaking level of smoothness and fluidity when you’re plowing through an insane amount of werewolves in Rush Mode, for example! As Johnny Coghlan from Chillingo recently said, we’ve really focused on allowing players to choose their favored control scheme. You can shoot in eight directions and move in any direction, or conversely you can switch the controls over so the movement is in eight directions while you can shoot at any angle! We think this works amazingly well on PSPgo.

Download the game as soon as you can – we’re sure you’ll enjoy it!
