Derby-based Strawdog Studios, have today announced that their fast paced arcade game Geon will  be coming to Sony’s PSN. The game will be packed with features such as trophy support, online multiplayer and will also boast 1080p visuals.

Geon sees players controlling a ‘Geon’ cube, as they frantically compete against their opponents to collect pellets and deposit them in the opponent’s goal to score. At the same time they must fight to prevent their opponents from scoring by the tactical use of the different powerballs as well as their cube’s all-new default attack and shield abilities.

The game enhancements for the PSN version include:

• Redesigned single player maps,
• Introduction of a new League mode
• Players have attack and shield as standard (instead of only via a power-up) allowing for greater interaction with (thumping the hell out of) your opponent,
• New goal scoring system make it essential to stop your opponent scoring,
• Redesigned Power-ups with the introduction of new ones such as Bliss’ ghost cubes (which collect pellets for you) and Rage’s extra attack – it’s one angry cube.
• Introduction of PSN trophies,
• Dramatically improved AI to handle the new game-play.

• Single player
