Preview: World of Goo

I recently preordered World of Goo and was lucky enough to sample the first chapter (which I have almost completed….blasted tower of goo level!). Let me start off by saying that I absolutely love the art style. It’s hard to explain exactly what it is, but it definitely has a pop-up book type feel. All in all, it’s shaping up to be a very unique and slick game. Just as dragging and dropping the black goo got tedious, I was introduced to some mind blowing other goos such as inflatable goos and green movable goos. I am really excited to see what other goos make it into the final game. Hopefully, World of Goo will get the notoriety it deserves when it is finally released…I think it could make quite a splash on the Wii. Simple gameplay permeates this game, but you have to be smart with your goos or 2d Boy will cry.
