Eets

Postby Steeltemplar » Tue Apr 18, 2006 8:19 am

While at my favorite gaming webcomic recently (Penny Arcade, notably not for the younger crowd), I came across this awesome little puzzle game called Eets. Essentially, your role in the game is to, through the use of various creative and wacky tools, guide little Eets through a series of levels wherein he is attempting to collect puzzle pieces. In an interesting gameplay addition, a good deal of the game involves using various the use of these various objects to effect Eets's emotions. For example: Eets is afraid of the dark. If you let him go into darkness for too long, he will become too afraid to jump off of ledges. So if you need him to jump, providing a light may be a good idea.

Gameplay is reminiscent of the classic Lemmings, for those who recall the earlier days of gaming. The art and music are well done, all set to the whimsical tone of the game itself. It's great fun and horribly addictive. Adding to that is the built-in puzzle creator.

Anyone else tried this out yet?

If you haven't you can get the demo at their site.

My roommate played this game and he had a lot of fun with it. It looked kinda weird, but still really fun.
