  • The Maw- Boy and His Blob for the 2000s?

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

They linked it on Penny Arcade today, I guess it was shown at PAX.

You're a dude with this pet that is basically an eye and a mouth on a leash that will eat anything, and whatever it eats it can absorb the powers of.

The demo reel actually looks really potentially fun & clever, reminds me of if Boy and his Blob got merged with Jak & Daxter or Ratchet & Clank.

Any thoughts?

I've been thinkin' of nabbin' the demo. Have you tried it?

Not yet. I'm tempted though. I have hated almost every 3D cute-mascot platformer since Mario 64, but this one looks REALLY fun.

If you do grab the demo, tell me how it is.
