I’ve always had a deep affinity for game projects that break from the popular crowd and provide a unique gaming experience, perhaps even creating a new genre. The upcoming, World of Goo, is just such a game. It began as a freeware game experiment, Tower of Goo, which is still widely played on the internet, and its grown into a beautiful beast of an experience.

I have much respect for the work of the two authors, one of which happens to be behind the Experimental Game Project. That author has created some other game projects that are easily as inventive and wonderful as World of Goo and I’m venturing to guess that given that so many numbers of people seem to be snatching up pre-orders for World of Goo, this author’s previous projects will likewise materialize into stunning commercial games.

If you’re interested in purchasing the game, it is scheduled to be released on October 14 and it should become available at various commercial establishments such as Wal-Mart and Amazon.com. I’ll offer my own affiliate link here wherein you could purchase the game through Amazon.com, though admittedly, I personally don’t have much patience in waiting for things to arrive when ordered through the internet and I suspect others wouldn’t have as much patience, either.
