PSN, WiiWare title Explodemon! looks explosively awesome

Recommended Videos

I’d argue that Explodemon! is a terribly silly-sounding name for a game. But God damned if it doesn’t look slick, setting off just about every retro alarm in the Destructoid offices (this also involves sprinklers and string cheese).

In development by Curve Studios for PC, PlayStation Network, and WiiWare, the game looks like a fresh take on classic platforming titles, with a look and feel clearly inspired by Capcom’s Mega Man. As the studio itself name-checks the Blue Bomber, Mario, Halo, and Half-Life 2 in describing the game… and that should really say it all. 

You can check out the video after the jump, which shows off Explodemon!‘s platforming and exploding game mechanic that defies description… mostly because I’m not sure what the hell is going on. But I don’t care, because it looks really, really damned cool.
