Indie Game Spotlight: World of Goo

World of Goo is by far one of the most interesting games I've seen. It's got a quirky atmosphere and well done gameplay.

I like World of Goo because it has gameplay that you don't see a lot and has charm to it's little goo-ball characters. In World of Goo the goal is to build your goo tower/structure to reach the pipe and then the pipe collects your extra goo-balls and counts 'em up and if you have enough it lets you progress. The game is fun for anybody who is creative or likes a good puzzle. Sometimes you will find yourself in a level where you have balloons to keep your bridge structure from falling into a pit and another you just gotta build skywards. The game is uncomplicated at a glance, but when you get to the meat and potatoes you really gotta think about having a good foundation for your structure and you gotta keep it's balance. Sometimes you'll use special goo balls, some just hang and some you can take apart. Be careful, if you place a goo ball you cannot take it off, so make 'em count.

I really like the quirkiness the game has, the little goo balls make funny sounds when you place them, the music is good and the graphics are well done. Overall the game is good, just remember the time bugs if ya screw up. 

Thanks for reading and Merry Christmas.
