    I highly recommend everyone checks out "Prelude to Eden" on Michael Gagne's website http://www.gagneint.com/Final%20site/misc/Prelude%20to%20Eden/Prelude.htm


    He is an amazing effects artist with YEARS of experience in 2d animated films. I am sure he has influenced countless artists and animators, effects and otherwise, and I would say if anything world of goo looks like his work. :)


    This game looks amazing and I can't wait to play.

    Looks awesome! I don't understand why you'd put all that effort into making a trailer for your game, and then fail to declare the platform(s) it's heading to... even the splash page of their website says nothing.

    isn't that sort of a 'fail' from a marketing standpoint?

    @stranger: Not if they are trying to get some buzz behind it to get some publishing money. They aren't trying to get our money (yet), but M$ or Sony money so they can put it on some consoles. Kits cost $$$

    So far that was the best thing I've seen all day, but for a name like "Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet" I'd expect no less. I remember playing "Flowery and Pleasant Shadow Planet" and "Mildly Interesting Shadow Planet" (I didn't play "My Little Shadow Planet," but then again, who did?), so I'm looking forward to "Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet". And then they'll hopefully follow it up by "Adverb Verb Shadow Planet" or even "Adjective Verb Shadow Planet"

    The presentation was very showy and it's nice to see a game which bleeds art, but the part that really drew me in was where it's currently for the PC. You really don't get that many 2D games with this level of polish for the PC.



    It has a Solar Jetman evolved feel, combined with any number of the newer similarly styled console games that roll off the tongue. I hope the gameplay elements are as rich as the visuals.

    This game looks cool, hopefully it's nothing like Solar Jetman aside from the 2d-space-corridor flying.

    Certainly looks amazing, lets hope the gameplay can match its awesome art direction. Its got a kind of patapon meets world of goo feel to it, and thats awesome.

    I've always been a fan of Michel Gagne's work, but that looked amazing, even for him. This game just made my watch list.

    @rich8606:

    Quite amazing indeed. I always thought around my n64 days the 2d would surely die out. But years later and many games have proven that 2d can actually be more entertaining than 3d photo-real visuals. I just never understood why 2d games seem a thousand times more creative that 3d ones(which cut and paste other devs ideas).

    @Curse_Lily: I was looking at their web site, and there is a part where they talk about presenting the game to microsoft, they then went on to say the presentation "extremely well" and that " ITSP on the Xbox could be a cool thing indeed!"

    Who knows if anything came of that, but at least they are interested in putting it on consoles. I would love for this to be a Arcade/PSN game, it looks really wicked.

    Just looks brilliant - very Papaton in visual style, although obviously with far superior animation. Let's hope it actually happens!

    The game is awesome, and is an excellent example of what games as art can do. Hope they manage to find a publisher, looks like they deserve it.
