    Yep, the Music fits the Game well.

    It´s so great to see people are developing adventures again. A genre pronounced dead by some folks years ago.

    Preordered too. Nice bonus, getting the hi-res images and especially the 5 soundtrack downloads.

    If anyone interested in Machinarium hasn't checked out Amanita's previous work, I highly recommend clicking the link. They've got a bunch of free flash games, and you can dowload the full version of Samarost 2 for a measly 5 bucks! Do it, it's for a good cause.

    Simply magnificent! Any of the backdrops will make a nice desktop wallpaper.

    Yes, Amanita are good peeps who deserve our support. It's so rare to see games like this that are fun to play, but also function as pure art. Things like this just elevate gaming as a medium, hopefully helping to one day give games the cultural and critical legitimacy they so richly deserve. Just by looking at them, you know these aren't your average game designers. More like a bunch of hippies on a commune! :D

    I pre-ordered last month or so, on a whim. For $17 it looked fun and I'll have totally forgotten about it by the time I get an email saying it's released. So it'll be a nice surprise.

    I've been looking forward to this one as well, the trailer just reaffirms my initial thoughts of "Wow. Just...beautiful". I'm lumping this in with "Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet" under "Games That Actually Caught My Interest Due Mainly To Graphics".
