The art style reminds me of Don Hertzfeldt.

Seems more like Jhonen Vasquez than Hertzfeldt to me.
Either way, this game is very strange.

Rock, Paper, Shutgun (

So do I. A sandbox soft body globule simulator/fiendish puzzle game/weird, yet utterly wonderful thing might not be absolutely everyone's cup of tea, but if you like awesome or sniggering it ought to float your boat. I think they just pulled the preview release though, so you'll just have to wait a week.

This game is spectacular.
Next superlative?
Seriously, a premiere example of independent development on the PC.

Not this goo again

Mmm, goo. I smell another purchase.
Ack, wait! Do me a favour guys - keep that hyperbole down! I just bought Spore on Monday. At this rate, I don't think I'll ever be able to finish any of my games. :(

I am totally in love with this. It's so perfectly realised from the simple, yet addictive gameplay, to the unique art direction and whimsical score that's all filtered through it's kooky bent. As soon as the full game is released I think this is gonna be a hot contender for my GOTY.
