Creat Studios has announced that the studio’s latest game, Mushroom Wars: Online, has launched on the PlayStation Network today as an add-on pack for the original strategy game, Mushroom Wars.
Available now over the European PlayStation Network, with a release to follow “soon” in the US, Mushroom Wars: Online is a new piece of downloadable content for Mushroom Wars that adds several expansions to that game’s features, with the inclusion of 4-player online multiplayer support, amongst other neat additions.
TikGames and Creat Studios’ awesome SkyFighter has finally received a concrete release date for the North American version of the PlayStation Network (PSN), following the release of the arcadey side-scrolling aerial combat game on the European PSN in late September.
TerRover is a delightful puzzle platform game from Creat Studios, a developer that has rapidly become a PS3 and PlayStation Network expert with quality releases like SkyFighter, Smash Cars and Digger HD releasing in quick succession. TerRover, however, could just be one of the studio’s best, most polished and well-rounded titles to date, and is certainly my personal favourite of the company’s current selection of games available on the PS Store.
What exactly is a ‘puzzle platform game,’ though? As far as TerRover is concerned, it’s a game in which you need to methodically make your way through an environment using all of your available skills – you can’t simply race through a level and be done with it (Sonic, I’m looking at you!). There are obstacles and areas that require a modicum of thought (and at times, quick fingers) to get through, tasking you with being very familiar with your abilities, and to use them at the right time.
The closest comparison to TerRover would be a game like Trials HD, or an old PC game called Elastomania… but forget that old chaff! TerRover has a personality and style all its own, and underneath its shiny, cutesy exterior lies a challenging game of thought, patience and grinning robot rovers, and while it can be frustrating at times, it can also be entirely satisfying!

TikGames and Creat Studios have teamed up yet again to bring another title to the PlayStation Network. This time round you can look forward to an arcade style, side-scrolling aerial combat game called Skyfighter.
The good news for European gamers is that Skyfighter is available on the European PlayStation Store today for €9.99. The game will be available to download in North America next month for $9.99.
TerRover, the stylised 2D physics based all-terrain vehicle platform game from Creat Studios, is now available on the US PlayStation Store for $14.99.
The game sees players controlling a small off-road vehicle, using their “rover’s wheel rotation, pivot center, gravity system and weapons to overcome obstacles” while exploring “40 stages of puzzling arcade levels” in “five distinct worlds with unique art styles” to discover a new planetary home.
Creat Studios latest project TerRover will be arriving on the US PlayStation Network tomorrow for $14.99.
TerRover is a stylised, 2D physics- and vehicle based platform game that sees players taking control of a small off-road vehicle as they explore new planets and collect valuable items. You’ll get “weapons and tools and a chassis equipped with rocket launchers, magnet cables and more to assist in collecting all the mechanical parts scattered about and discovering the secret areas and hidden passages.”
TikGames and Creat Studios have kicked off their ‘End of Summer Sale Spectacular’ in the North American PlayStation Store, which will feature 40% off the standard retail price of their nine PlayStation Network games.
You’ll be able to get best-selling PSN games including Smash Cars, Magic Orbz, Wakeboarding HD and Hamsterball on sale from today until the 14th of September. In addition you’ll be able to get your hands on all their downloadable content packs for only 99¢.
TerRover is the next game from Creat Studios, a stylised vehicle-based platformer that sees players taking control of a small off-road vehicle and navigating it through a series of different terrains on new planets, collecting valuable items along the way.
But this isn’t just any ordinary vehicle, it’s a TerRover, complete with a little head and face that changes expressions depending on what situations the players find themselves in. It will get cross when it’s stuck and be happy when it’s collecting nuts, as you can see in the first gameplay trailers from the game. This is a physics-based game so your little TerRover will be able to jump over obstacles as well as climb or fall to different heights within a level, spinning and moving obstacles in order to progress.
This is where the head’s importance comes in because the position of the TerRover’s head can be changed during the game, with the TerRover accelerating forwards or backwards depending on where the head is positioned. Of course you’ll also be able to move the position of the head from the top of the vehicle to the bottom depending on the TerRover’s orientation.
In addition to a meaty-sounding single player campaign that includes five planets and 40 levels, TerRover will also include three different types of local multiplayer modes for up to four players.
Intrigued by what we’ve seen of TerRover so far, El33tonline caught up with Creat Studios to dig deeper into the nuts and bolts behind this little off-roader. Read the Q and A with Olga Sokolova, Producer of TerRover and Scott Hyman, Vice President of Development, both from Creat Studios, below:
Even though we’ve known of its existence for a little while now, Sony and Creat Studios have now officially announced TerRover, a stylized, 2D physics- and all terrain vehicle-based platform game.
According to the press release TerRover will launch players into a “surreal mash-up of unique cartoon graphics and a 2D physics universe.” The game will see players taking control of a small off-road vehicle with the aim of exploring new planets and collecting valuable items.
TikGames and Creat Studios have announced that a new add-on pack for their arcade racer, Smash Cars, will be available on the PlayStation Network next week.
Virus Run will be the first add-on pack DLC for Smash Cars and will set you back $2.99 or €2.99 when it arrives on the North American PlayStation Store on the 8th of June and a week later on the 16th of June on the European PlayStation Store.
Yesterday we got first word of Creat Studios’ next game, a stylised vehicle-based platformer by the name of TerRover, along with the release of a bunch of interesting gameplay details and screenshots to boot.
Now we’re able to clap our eyes on some in-game footage from TerRover, showing off those interesting gameplay details in motion, as the physics-based nature of the game is also revealed in full force - if you enjoyed Trials HD, this may be your next game!
Watch below:
Creat Studios recently announced its next PlayStation Network exclusive title in the form of a stylised, 2D physics- and vehicle-based platform game called TerRover.
TerRover will see players taking control of a small off-road vehicle conveniently named… TerRover (short for Terrain Rover?), with the aim of exploring new planets and collecting valuable items.
Creat Studios and TikGames will be releasing a free demo for Wakeboarding HD on to the PlayStation Network in North America and Europe today.
The demo will allow players to “discover what all the fuss is about by making high-flying jumps, performing insane tricks, and dodging pesky Great White Sharks before purchasing the full game.”
Creat Studios will be releasing another new game on the PlayStation Network this Thursday, this time for the PlayStation Mini. Freekscape: Escape From Hell will be available on the 8th of April in North America and Europe for $4.99/€4.99.
Creat Studios and TikGames have teamed up yet again, this time to launch a Publisher Page on the PlayStation Network in North America.
The TikGames/Creat Studios page will feature their games, videos, themes and wallpapers. And with nine titles between them, the companies have released more PS3 games for the PSN than any other company so it’s well worth checking out.
