I love these videos. Brilliant marketing. Really sells the atmosphere of the game and makes me want to just explore the world. In this one, especially, there are lots of little hints and teases about a wider world than we’re shown. Like… is that a door in that tree at the top?
It’s probably difficult to see or feel this yourself with a game you’ve been working on for so long, but I wanted to let you know how much these videos have drawn me to want to EXPLORE this world. Each one (not to mention the PAX East Gameplay) leaves me with so many unanswered questions… Locked doors, distant floating islands, doorways in tree trunks, or blocked off with stone… I just want to look around! I want to know what’s going on here! And what’s with the owls?! My wife would love this game. She has an owl obsession. Anyway, as if my previous (blunt) comment didn’t say it already, I am really excited to play this game.

It breaks my heart that this will only exist on xbox…

Same here. Maybe if I slowly turn my computer 90 degres it becomes an Xbox and I can play Fez. Maybe…

Polytron is my favorite producer of animated 360° screetshots. Maybe someday they’ll make a game based on these.

You think it’s just an average waterfall at first, but then it’s revealed to be a crudely constructed weeping, vomiting bovine. Art indeed.

OMFG I want this game.

Easily my most anticipated game of the decade. I’ll be so glad when I can finally give these guys money for it.

I don’t get it, why you don’t want to make a PC version of this gem. It would bring you a bunch of money.

Hey Phil,
Are you going to be at either the Winnipeg or Sundance premiere of IGTM?
December 9th, 2011 at 18:59

December 9th, 2011 at 19:04

December 13th, 2011 at 17:42
That was fucking magical.
January 7th, 2012 at 13:06
I live in Winnipeg! What’s IGTM?
I wondered what these long screen shots would have looked like on the 3DS.
