    The blob that never was

    In a time before Splatoon, de Blob was the big name in spreading colourful ink around town. Unlike Nintendo's inky shooter, the series saw you take control of a colour-absorbing ball which would complete various challenges by spreading paint across a monochromatic landscape. You might remember de Blob on the Wii, its sequel...

    A button press by any other name...

    For some reason the fact that motion controls (or "gestures") are a major part of the Wii control interface bothers people; it is felt that this ruins the gaming experience and that the majority of such implementations would be better served by traditional digital button presses. Indeed some people go so...

About The Game

The Blob is a third person action maze challenge with a colorful, fun and shapely animated character everyone will love!

Featuring ball-rolling and color spray gameplay mechanics of captivating fluidity and an evolutionary design, gamers will laugh and play for hours.

Are you ready to wreak havoc in the streets of an alien city? Enter a world where color is outlawed and the citizens are like zombies. Your mission as the Blob is to return color into the world so the citizens can snap out of their trance-like state and become funky!

As the Blob uses the city as a playground to decorate he is forced to take on the evil INKT Corporation agents. Constantly under attack, the Blob in his own quirky way fights back. Rolling, bouncing and crushing are his weapons!

The object is to color and/or stencil as many buildings in the city as possible while avoiding the enemy. Race against time moving at Blob speed, or choose your own pace. The city is a canvas and The Blob is your paint brush!

Take the action to the next level. Compete against 2-4 other players in
the quest for multiplayer Blob supremacy.

This fresh new concept will appeal to everyone. Casual gamers will enjoy the simple and infectious aspects of the game such as the fluid animation and wacky Blob maneuvers. The hard core gamers can take on the challenge of earning as many rewards as possible and unlocking several hidden elements. It’s an experience for all to enjoy that’s like no other!
