This week, the folks at Konami are excited to bring you the new PSN Release Puddle! Relying on the physics of water and other fluids (hot magma anyone?) in ever-evolving environments, you'll need to guide the fluid flow with precision to get to the goal.

While it seems like a simple concept, the gameplay requires a fun puzzle-focused mentality where you must tilt the entire environment, balancing the push of each fluid's unique properties with the pull of environmental factors of gravity, friction, and obstacles.

With PlayStation Move compatibility, and a demo available as well, Puddle is set to make a big splash on PlayStation Network.
