In Max & the Magic Marker you take control of Max and must guide him safely to the exit warp at the end of each level. While Max can run, jump, and even climb ledges, there will be times when he runs into obstacles that can't be traversed with his basic platforming skills alone. Instead you'll have to use the magic marker to draw in certain items to help him out.
Indie Royale has launched their newest bundle which features four games available on both PC and Mac including one exclusive Indie Royale title.
Jody Mulhern of Brash Games writes "Available on iOS, PSN, PC, Mac, Wii and now, Nintendo DS, Max and the Magic Marker has enjoyed wide exposure to the gaming community, amassing significant cult status for itself and developer Press Play. And now, being a game where drawing is an integral part of the experience, one would assume that it should continue its reign of quiet conquest on the DS".
IGN - In Max & the Magic Marker, the titular Max must work his way through a series of side-scrolling stages while using his trusty orange-colored magic marker to help him on his quest. As various iterations of the game have been released on WiiWare, PC and iOS, the formula for the game hasn't changed; Max's magic marker can draw platforms, ramps and other basic items to assist him.
