GD: N+ developer Metanet Software has announced a new action puzzle game currently in-development by the name of Office Yeti. Which I officially nominate for Game of the Universe based solely on the title and my imagination.
BeefJack writes, The incredibly fun ninja platformer N+ is finally heading to European handheld systems later this year.
At one point, it wasn't looking good for N+ on the PSP and DS. Not in the eyes of the Metanet Software, developers of the original game, anyway. Currently it's not working – it's not the game we wanted to make, said Metanet's Mare Sheppard to Edge in May. There are a lot of changes we haven't been so happy with. Those changes appear to have been made. N+ arrives on PSP and DS next week, and Metanet told MTV Multiplayer the handheld versions from Atari have come a long way.
N+ offers equal parts platformer and action gameplay with incredibly fluid animation, fast action, amazing acrobatics and instant playability. N+ embodies the same brisk pick-up-and-play style that has endeared gamers worldwide and improves on the adored flash game with downloadable content, multiplayer components and a built-in level editor. N+ has taken its amazing acrobatics and simple-but-fast gameplay and has clearly become a standout hit, winning top award recognition at this year's E3, said David Geudelekian, Producer, Atari, Inc. With an impressive set of new features including wireless multiplayer, downloadable content and over 200 levels exclusive to each version, gamers will be able to settle, once and for all, who is the greatest ninja. New impressive features like cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes and level sharing over the ad-hoc PSP system and wireless NDS connections will expand upon the gameplay possibilities that have made the original flash game a sensation. Complimenting the game's 'old-school' feel, the control layout uses directional buttons and one of the face buttons to jump and move. With the built-in level editor, players can use the stylus to design maps and share them with friends or the world and downloadable content will continue to add exciting elements long after the game's initial release.
Metanet Software's highly touted flash game, turned XBLA game, turned DS and PSP game N+ has just received a price drop and release date for the DS and PSP versions of the game.

Atari has announced it will publish N+, a souped up version of the popular Flash game N, on the DS and PSP this November. For those that have never played N, it is described as a psychotic mix of Pac-Man and platform jumping acrobatics. With ninjas. The handheld versions will recreate the Flash game and include local competitive and cooperative modes along with a level editor, online leaderboards and downloadable content.
Similar in idea, graphical style and playability to Line Rider, the latest ubercool web game to get the nod for DS and PSP conversion is N (The Way of the Ninja), or as this version will officially be known, N+.
