I’ve been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth
enough for me. Personally, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did,
the web will be a lot more useful than ever before.

Apologies to Nintendo – they’re responsible for the eight months’ delay, but not for this further four months’ Europe-kicking. Roll on, RTL Playtainment. Well done you.

Either Vimeo’s having a hiccough or they don’t even allow trailers with gameplay in.

YEAAH! I’m very happy that with my preorder code I can play it on steam! :D

Nice! Once again, I bitch about something and it’s solved by Valve. I hereby accept full credit.

Great news, thanks Caleb.

According to the website you’ll be able to activate it on Steam using your “magic key” that you got in the initial email, which is really nice for those who pre-ordered.

I don’t want to buy it twice either :(

But I want it on steam so bad..

That usually involves entering the CD key to prove your purchase, and here you don’t have one because there’s no DRM. The lack of DRM is actually limiting the sense in which you own the game. Down with no-DRM! We demand DRM!

By: Chris Livingston

Chris Livingston — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 18:39:13 +0000

Isn’t there a way to activate it on Steam if you’ve already bought it, like there is for other games? That would be nice. That way I could get the achievements and updates without having to buy it twice.

Mr Brit, the real question here is, “Why on Earth was it left as “Submit Your Comment” for so long? I was aghast to find that I’d never customised that button from the default WordPress template. Even James 1.0’s guestbook presented users with the option to “Submit! Obey!”

I think I might change it from time to time, like Ryan North’s “E-mail this comic to a friend” link on qwantz.com.

Pentadact — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 18:19:14 +0000

If it helps, I don’t think that download link 2D Boy send you in the e-mail will expire, so you’ve essentially got the game ready to download on any PC you can access your mail from. The Achievements are probably going to be for the OCD criteria, which aren’t the fun bit to me.

Good, I can blame my not buying it yet on the fact that I was waiting for it to appear on Steam…

By: Rosti

Rosti — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 18:11:04 +0000

Ack – I “pre-ordered” this game immediately before finding out about it’s Steam incarnation. May have to count my pennies.

'Twas indeed - more specifically, gameplay videos. Machinima and evidently trailers are fine. Although...I guess some are exempt? Oh no Rule 34?

Pentadact — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 20:58:40 +0000

Tell you what, Vimeo is awesome for embedding. You can choose the precise size, so I matched it up to a standard James screenshot, and button colour, so those are James-post slate. You can probably add a border, too, but I haven’t figured that out yet.

Was it them who declared a moratorium on game videos? Shame if so.

By: Pentadact

Pentadact — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 20:56:39 +0000

Fixed, thanks for the info.

God dammit. This is beyond running gag. I don't normally make another comment to say sorry, but Sorry.

The song's closest to being named "Best of Times". Thanks to Smee on RPS for the info, thanks to my curiosity for looking around, thanks to Google for bringing stuff close, and thanks to Kyle himself for putting it up at his personal site. You could also just grab the video via Tamperdata and extract the audio via FLVExtract. Not that I'd do something like that.

Jason, I’m not one of those to single out that world, but what I loved about it was the freshness, the visual inversion, the departure from the organic and dirty, and the synthesis of concept, story and content. In neither this world nor the others is the basic mechanic the source of my enjoyment – I don’t even particularly like building stuff by making little triangles.

By: Pentadact

Pentadact — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 19:53:00 +0000

I don’t know if it has a name, but it’s a version of a track that appears in the game, and not available elsewhere yet – as far as I know. The game music is all done by the artist, level-designer, writer and designer, Kyle Gabler.

what is the name of the song in this video? thankyouplease

I’m on Chapter 4, the Information Superhighway – just completed, um, the one where you orbit. So far I’m not liking this chapter as much as everyone else seems to. I’ll find out soon enough, but if the base Goo here is the one that’s making everyone gasp…I’ve played Worms. I came here to build heartbreakingly wobbly trusses on friendly skulls over deadly ground and atmospheric flotation suspension bridges over whirling wind turbines. In isolation I love the art – sounds, colours, and especially the little trail of bits – but it doesn’t feel World of Goo. It’s not organic/dirty enough and my Goos aren’t really building anything – and Grapevine Virus in particular was an exercise in tedium.

So far it’s a “merely good” portion of a game that has otherwise been uniformly great.

And here I was sad I was going to have to wait until Monday when what do I find in my inbox? Glee!

Well, like, I’m sure, many others, I’ve pre-ordered it and am delighted (also pleased I had a $18 US I had forgotten about in my PayPal account).

A most excellent ludic experiment, what-what!

Roll on Monday.

I’m downloading it as I write this, having preordered it back in January. If you’re reading this and haven’t bought it yet, you should. It’s brilliant, and funny, and engaging, and frustrating all at once.

But it’s the slowest download I’ve had for years! I’m only getting 2 kB/s off their server, and my browser estimates 7.5 hours left for the remaining 56MB. That hurts.
