De Blob Headed for Wii

Derek Yu — Mon, 02 Jul 2007 19:02:00 +0000

De Blob, one of this year’s IGF Student Showcase finalists, is heading to the Wii thanks to publisher THQ and their development studio Blue Tongue. In the game you play a giant blob of paint trying to cover the city in… yourself. It’s fun, it’s original, it’s pretty, and apparently even Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov praised the game highly at this year’s IGF.

The original game can still be downloaded for free here.

Congrats, fellas!

bizarre that not a one of these upcoming wii indie game ports (they keep piling on, eh?) are dev’ed by the original creators.

Are you sure they’re not going to “update the graphics” and get a McDonald’s tie-in? That blob does kinda look like the Grimace.

(I guess I shouldn’t give them any ideas.)

Yay! More independent games for my Wii to play with!
