Quantcast



Well, judging from your response yesterday, you really seemed to enjoy our first installment in the Boy and His Blob video series. Today, WayForward Director Sean Velasco will take us through the Swamps level of the game (which he says is one of his favorites). In this level, we'll see Boy and Blob do a little puzzle solving, and Sean confirms the release window and format for the game (yes, it IS a full retail release and not a WiiWare game!).

Hit the jump and check out chapter two in our A Boy and His Blob video series. I hope you enjoy it!

Part of me hates that you're going to make me buy this game, but who can have hate in their heart when you're watching stuff like this?

GAH! Enough with the interviews! My DO WANT for this game is exceeding dangerous levels! Any more footage could very well cause my cranium to explode!

Colette, you look like you are falling in love with this guy and want nothing more in the world than to drop the mic and make out with him.

In other words, EXCELLENT capture choice for the header. ^_^

The bird that eats the beans is hilarious to me and I don't know why. Buying this game on day one.

Colette you look like you go well together with the blob director. I was like "Oh. What a cute couple." Was love in the air? Did you use the dedicated hug button on him?

Colette looks like she wants to set Sean on fire with that deep intense stare!

I never played the original, so I didn't really care much about this...until I saw these walkthroughs. The game looks so utterly adorable and fun that I'm planning on buying it now. :D

@MotoRobo: Let's see how enthusiastic you sound when running on as little sleep as Colette probably was.

Anyway, looks great. Any word on if you can use a classic or Gamecube controller on this?

ugh jesus man, some of those blob-calls are real deal breakers.
I hope they make them not so ear piercing.

but otherwise this shit looks cute as fuck

I'm so glad that this will be a full, proper retail game and not a pissant digital game. It infuriates to no end when people don't think that a 2-D game warrants a disk.

Goddammit. These videos almost make me want to buy a Wii for this game.

Almost.

I can see myself annoying people by making the kid shout "HEY!" over and over and over again.

Still looks great, saddened by the lack of hugging action in this video, can't wait for the release.

I'm already sick of hearing the "Hey!" over and over...Reminds me a bit of ICO and having to yell for the girl all the time, something else I didn't really like. I'm sure I'll give this a rental though. Super cute!

Yorda and blob would make a cute couple, but they'd never go anywhere.

The boy crying for his blob reminds me of Baby Mario in Yoshi's Island...
