Just got linked to this by someone at work, and holy s***, pretty amazing and innovative concept. I believe its one of the finalists in the independant games festival at GDC. Don't want to say much cos I don't want to give it away, but definitely watch this video :)

Ha, that is very cool

pretty cool idea, reminds me a little of paper mario. I imagine it'll be a pain in the ass to find some hidden items/areas though.

very cool indeed

first thing it reminded me of was Mario Galaxy

that doesnt make sense, he can just move horizontally whenever he wants, sounds like a bad idea to me

The idea is you can spin the world in 3d to get it in a different perspective, then everything is projected into 2d from that perspective and becomes the platforms and stuff you can jump on.

How do you think the mapping/projection works on that paper mario. They make the map once in 3d, and it kinds of works out the '2d' projection automaticallly?

looks like you need to be on acid to enjoy that

:(
its just a really really slow version of paper mario

although if its got less inane text, it would probably be more fun to play;

that looks like a pain in the ass

Felt like a cross between Paper mario and Echochrome. I would imagine it would involve a nice learning curve, like "thinking in portals". However, awesome looking game.

Looks interesting if you're into puzzle type games I guess.

Concept seems cool... im tired and that started to hurt my brain near the end O.o

Mushroom portal at the end ftw :D
