Gameplay Video For Kokoromi's Fez

February 20, 2008

I've heard about gaming collective, Kokoromi's, Fez. I've seen screenshots. The platform/puzzler looked alright, but for some reason I never paid much attention. There's no excuse for that.

Kokoromi proved last year, with their Gamma 256 event, that, at the least, they have great taste. Gamma 256 brought the world The Passage, Jason Rohrer's five minute reflection on one small, pixelated man's life, from birth to marriage to death. Even the Wall Street Journal loved this game. Given all that, why would I ignore Fez?

Like I said, there's no excuse, and after watching this trailer, I realize, I was an idiot for doing so.

Fez is up for the 'Design Innovation' and 'Excellence in Visual Art' awards at this years Independent Games Festival held Wednesday night at GDC.
