Indie game World of Goo coming to Wii and PC

As a stanch defender of Loco Roco, junkie for Tim Burton/Jhonen Vasquez inspired visuals, and life long fan of the indie game scene, I must say that this vid for World of Goo has my interest piqued. Due to delays around the newly announced Wii version, the game's release date has been changed from February 14th, 2008 to "coming soon". Could 2Dboy's plan be to distribute the game via the WiiWare service, which is rumored to launch world wide in March, 2008? Time will tell. 
 
It seems the Wii is quickly becoming the choice for the new generation of indie games about blobs of goo. That's a choice I can stand behind.

That looks like something I will love. That would be a great title to kick off WiiWare.

Oh 2dboy, I think they were the ones behind God Hand, weren't they?

Finally, something that looks good for WiiWare other than Crystal Chronicles.

->tazar: God hand was clover(R.I.P.). Man, I love that game.

This does look pretty neat conceptwise. Looks like bridge builder(which is awesome), but with added complexities and a very pleasing aesthetic. Me like.

It looks like they have really developed the concept, you can play the original flash version on the experimental gameplay project
