Oh man, what a terrific little game! Samorost-ish, indeed, but with a style all its own. Is the game yours, JJ, or are you just passing the news along?

Hehe, I wish I was that talented :-)
Just passing it along. I rembered there are a lot of fans of samorost here, so I thought some would like this.

Cheers, JJ

Cool. Although its initial appeal lies in the awesome graphics, this little gem is really great at showing how far you can move away from the standard adventure game conventions and still come up with something that feels so much like an adventure (well, puzzle-adventure in this case).

Never heard of this other game, though.

You mean you never heard of Samorost? You're missing out man!

Samorost1:
http://www.samorost.net/samorost1/

And the price-winning Samorost2:
http://www.samorost.net/samorost2/

Alas, only the first half of samorost 2 is free. The second half you have to buy for a small fee. (which is very much worth it, imho)

Cheers, JJ

Oh, ok, never mind.
I think I'm missing some inside jokes here

I have actually never played the game called **censored** I was talking about

Aw. It's always fun to discover a new game.

Thanks for the Sprout link and reminding us of the goodness of Samorost.

Cool, but boring. The sounds are very repetitive too.

Don't really see the appeal of this one. The Samorost series is amazing, though (and well worth the price).

I found it nice. Nothing amazing, but I had fun. A couple of the solutions were amusing. Thumbs up.
