LIMBO is a new arcade game released today(technically yesterday as of 2 minutes ago) about a young boy unsure of where his sis is and so goes in search of her, all black and white game. I played the demo today(yesterday) and thought it was awesome, its a puzzle platformer so you actually have to think. heres the trailer.

Everyone's been raving about it, so I'll definitely have to download the demo.

I bought it and beat it. Maybe a little pricey for the length. Probably my favorite platformer since N.

I hate this. Style over substance over content.

You really didn't like it? The game-play was pretty awesome. The whole game is a puzzle, getting the eggs is pretty difficult, let alone getting through the level without dying. Yeah it's style first, but I don't think the game-play suffers.

Hate might have been strong. I hate the design philosophy more than the finished project. That said, I find the gameplay rather average.
