Machinarium Trailer Is Just Lovely


We've talked Machinarium before. Mostly because it looks amazing. Just in case you're not quite sold on the amazingness, here's a trailer for the game, which somehow manages to make me think Monty Python, Robo Story and the opening of Space Quest IV, all at the same time.

Latest by Ehardergardens: @vex-solo: tool videos which were inspired (ripped off?) from shorts of the Brothers Quay(which inspired the movie A Zed and Two Naughts), which highly recommend for strange stop motion animation.. they themselves were inspired by Jan Svankmajer ... this game does look tip top notches! more »

More On Machinarium

Loads of you seemed to dig Machinarium when we posted some stuff on it the other day, which is great. So here's some more. Hope you like it. The story revolves around a cute little unnamed robot, who's thrown out of his robot town, then has to stop an evil brotherhood from blowing up the leader of the town, all the while trying to rescue his girl-robot-friend. Gameplay-wise it'll be a textbook point-and-clicker, same as Samorost, although developer Jakub Dvorský says it'll be bigger and "much more complex". Oh, and yes, like I said last time, those screens are real: the entire game, animation included, is hand-drawn (new screen above). Loads more info, like what inspired the game, how it'll differ from Samorost and what else the Amanita Design team are up to, is at the link below.

Machinarium, From The Makers of Samorost

Ah, Samorost. So beautiful! So woefully underappreciated by the gaming public at large. Maybe machinarium, the Samorost team's latest outing, will fare better. It's a "full-scale" adventure game for the PC, and should be out later this year. More info is coming "sooner or later", so for now, pass the day away gazing at these gorgeous screenshots. More »
