Acclaimed 2D indie side-scroller Max & The Magic Marker expands to PlayStation Network on 28th September, publisher Pan Vision has announced.

First released on WiiWare back in 2010, the Press Play-developed effort sees you drawing in your own platforms and other objects to help the titular hero to the end of the level.

The PSN version, dubbed Max & The Magic Marker: Gold Edition, adds updated HD visuals and Move support.

The game is currently also available on iOS, Mac and PC.
