We've gathered some screenshots for LocoRoco, which Sony has announced will hit PSP this summer.

A joyfully simple game, you're responsible for guiding grinning, jelly-like blobs - the LocoRoco - through snowy mountain peaks and moist jungles, while avoiding anything sharp and pokey.

LocoRoco uses PSP's shoulder buttons to tilt the levels and roll the blobby characters through the environments. By gobbling fruit scattered around the levels your LocoRoco will balloon in size - but bumping into nasties and spikes shrinks the wobbling mass. You can also break them into lots of little LocoRocos to squeeze through tight spaces, like in our images.

It's possibly the most beautifully absurd idea since Katamari Damacy, and we can't wait to give this enchanting oddity a hands-on test.

LocoRoco will be released for PSP this summer
