World Of Goo - heard of it?

June 21, 2008 5:52:38 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
World of goo is a strange game, a bit unique
http://2dboy.com/

It's still in beta, but I'll order it once it gets to the wii.  The previews of it look pretty slick!
And here's a small technology demo, pretty much an early sandbox form of the game.

World Of Goo is now out (for pre-orders, that is.  Actual game comes out in a week).

http://2dboy.com/

 

And I have to say it is one of the best games I have played in a very, very long time.  The puzzles are both hard and fun to solve (no head-ache causers) and I'm having a blast replaying it. 

The difficulty increases throughout the game, but it not by raising the conditions or adding a timer.  The puzzles themselves become harder to solve requiring more thought to them. 

The music in the game is amazing.  I've added some of the tracks to my ipod even, which is a first for me about game music.

I laughed out loud several times at the puzzles and their solutions; not because they were funny but because they were so genious.  I don't want to spoil anything, but many of the puzzles will leave memories.

 

 

I really, really recommend everyone checking this game out.  The wii will be getting it (download only) and will have multiplayer.  The game (PC) has no drm on it

No copy protection whatsoever, so go out and buy it if it's your cup of tea and show the big publishers that they don't need to put copy protection on their games. Looks intriguing and I think I may have to buy myself a copy.

Game is amazing,  easily the best 20 bucks I've spent , also there is a demo out now of the entire first chapter (10 or so levels).

I heard it's available on Impulse.

A question about that: I like having a box with my game. If I go and buy that box, is there a key somewhere in there that I can register it with Impulse and use nice stuff like auto-updates and so on?

Stardock offers that as an option but no one has taken them up on it yet.  So . . no.

Damn

And if I do it the other way around, buy it in the Impulse-Shop. Then I of cause can use the awesome download options in Impulse. But World of Goo also offers a Linux-Version. I guess if bought on Impulse I will never have access to the Linux client, right?

Both my 8 and 5 year old daughtes love the game.  They really enjoy figurign out the whole thing.  Not having instructions rocks.
