PC, Mac, PSN, XBLA (most likely) Metroidvania game that looks totally amazing.

Loos pretty funky. The art style reminds me of Machinarium and Braid.

I can always get behind these sorts of games.

Saw a trailer for this game a while back, maybe a year ago or more. Nice to see it pop up again. Still looks great.

Nice video, those dudes are speaking my language with the design. I forgot about this, and now I really want it.

So again:

STOP TALKING

You can kinda stop wanting. I tried it out when it was released and more or less came away completely disappointed. The main problem was that I was expecting something more Metroidvania, but it's level based plateformer that's just not very good. The controls are too floaty and almost everything seems uninteresting. I've only been able to force myself through a couple of levels. While that seems tiny compared to the whole game according to the map screen, I have almost no desire to go back.

Hmmm. Will have to hold off on that, then, unless further evidence suggests otherwise.
