I bought Samarost 2 and loved it, but I'm not very happy that this game is going to PC. I have a mac!

As a huge fan of Samorost I can't wait to get my hands on this game. All hand drawn? Sweet.

@Gladman: Go play with their other creations, you'll see what they can do.

I am definitely looking forward to this.

Absolutely gorgeous.

@badmoogle: Agreed. I have the same hopes and concerns.

The style of this game and the other by the same guy(s) is just unbelievable. It's like a Tim Burton/Schaeffer wet dream.

@Gladman: I have to disagree, this seems like one of those games where the animation will work very well.

Compare it to games like Full Throttle and Broken Sword: Full Throttle had some nice graphics and a very distinct style overall, despite a limited amount of animations, and Broken Sword looked like an animated movie, even if the quality wavered a bit at times.

Now, Machinarium's style looks suitably "robotic": rusted, worn, metallic etc. It "works", at least in those stills. I don't know about the rest (story, gameplay and so on), but if they can keep the graphics consistently good and use enough animation, I'm cautiously optimistic.

Kinda reminds me of Abe's Oddyssey. Looks great.

I can't see the animations working well in this game.

The industry needs games like this as much as we need oxygen.But i wonder if the market for these kind of games will ever be big enough to support even more diversity.

So hot...

Anyone interested in this game should also check out the other games they did. You can see Samorost 1 and 2 here:
[amanita-design.net]

They are really cool. The first one is free and I think the second one is a demo. There is an option to buy the full thing, but I never finished what they had on the site to know if it is the full think or not.

@FIRST!!!: That or ma-shi-nair-e-um. Now I'm just confusing myself.

Color me excited ***jazz hands**.

S&M didn't really do it for me. I would like my adventures to be epic a la; Gabriel Knight/Space quest.

Yes, Space quest is epic in my book. Naysayers can go home, your not allowed on the premise.

@Erwin: Thanks.

FIRST!!!

Such a beautiful looking game.

@FIRST!!!: Machine-arium? It seems like the most likely way.

Erwin

The art style is amazing to say the least. I hope the game turns out to be great.

Pyro Jack

any way these guys would sell prints of the art that screenshot looks great.

Truepatriot

So how do you pronounce the game?

FIRST!!!

Those graphics are spectacular. I can't believe that's actually in-game.

Erwin

That drawings are hot. Wonder how this game is going to turn out. Is it only for PC?

[KU]Shindokie:Pon Pon Pata Pon!

Can't wait, I love me some Point and click'em adventure games.
