Machinarium
« on: January 13, 2009, 02:27:50 AM »

I just found this and thought I should share it with you guys. I can't wait for it! The game is called "Machinarium"

More Information, Artwork and Video is here:
http://www.machinarium.com/

I love it already. It reminds me in its unique style a bit of "Woodruff and the Schnibble" - I'm sure some of you will remember this awesome classic. Though Woodruff is a king of it's own, surely.

I am looking forward to it. I had the idea for a robot adventure myself a while back, but I scrapped it - and it's nice to see someone else got the idea too and realizes it :)

I don't think they use WME, that's why I put it in the General Category :)

But I agree with you, it looks great!

EDIT: I think it's Flash, kinda like this game from them: http://amanita-design.net/samorost-2/
I didn't even know Flash can do this :)

The style reminds me of one of the three movies I saw this year: Wall-e--the other two were KungFu Panda and Bolt.  So you can see what age group I hang out with.  :   )

It looks like it would be very easy to do this in WME.  :  )

It's a Flash game, I read about it somewhere. It looks really nice, can't wait to play it.

Some new gameplay footage was released: http://vimeo.com/3082659

Still looking good.

But I start to miss the traditional feeling of an adventure on this one. I mean items/inventory with item combinations and especially dialogues. Let's start a remake on WME guys! ;)

If they did such a master piece as "Samorost" as a very Indie and small project,just imagine how it is going to look "Machinarium" with a full-scale project such as this. :o The truth is I was looking forward this game since the firsts news of the project were announced,and I can't hardly wait its release.And as a comics illustrator,I only could fell absolutely blown away by the magnifical artwork,that I could only compare with the most artistical european comic books,on their total freedom of bizarre imagination,and their visions of these fantastical worlds.Believe me,when I see games like this I immediatelly feel the urge of throwing away all my 3D software,and start drawing all by myself again,and bring back some REAL art to games!BTW Machinarium RULES!!! ::rock
