I hear that there’s a World of Goo demo on the loose, for those of you that are still not convinced.
It’s also now available on Steam, if that’s your platform of choice.
It won’t be long before it’s in your bed, smoking a cigarette and lying to you about how good you were.
That’s right, there will be a World of Goo under your covers with you.

Eternity’s Child, a once promising-looking indie game, got slammed recently by Destructoid and the game’s developer, Luc Bernard, responded, er, slightly ungracefully to his critics in the comments under the post:
I wasn’t sure if it was a good idea to continue this train wreck, but like Kieron Gillen (Rock, Paper, Shotgun), I think there’s a good lesson here on how to handle criticism as a developer (including the unfair, thoughtless, and/or overly cruel kind). I see Jeff Minter and Denis Dyack’s names being bandied about in threads like these all the time and it makes me sad that such talented and influential individuals are now thought of as poster children for bad behavior (unlike, say, certain people who might truly deserve it!). I can’t see much value in these public arguments and there are certainly plenty I’ve been involved in that I wish I hadn’t been!
Also, I’m curious… if the game is so completely broken, how did it end up on Steam?
