Also coming to PS Vita

 

[Montresor]

Thank you god.

So Gone Home + A Boy And His Blob coming out to XB1 and PS4.

I need as many of these indie darling puzzle/story games as possible on my XB1... this is what I live for. There is nothing I love more than just relaxing with these quirky, beautiful indie puzzle games. No stress, no worrying, just diving into a beautiful world with bite-sized game play.

PC, PS4, Vita and Xbox One confirmed, and they are working on more platforms as well. Port by the excellent Abstraction Games.

All that's left is Wii U, 3DS, iOS, Android, Mac, Linux, and I guess NX?

 

[Vandole]

I really wanted to like this game. The graphics were beautiful, the entire concept was just really cute, but god it was so boring. I am happy that people are finally going to get a chance to play it who did not try it on the Wi, but keep your expectations in line. This is a beautiful but very slow paced puzzle game rather than a platformer, and won't be for everyone.

Those upscaled screenshots are rougher than I would have guessed. I hope there's an option to play the game windowed.

 

[Robert at Zeboyd Games]

Good game for what it was, but I wish it had been structured more like the original rather than divided up into stages. Now that I'm an adult, I would appreciate the challenge more.

 

[Parsnip]

Heh.

 

[punkmaggit]

Will buy for HD hugs.

 

[Qwark]

Hooray, I love this game, so freaking charming. It is pretty easy though, and a bit short. Though the extra levels provide more of a challenge. I hope this gets confirmed for Vita soon.

One of those early extra levels we couldn't figure out at all. I'd like to think with some distance we could go back and figure it out but man nothing feels defeating like being stumped at a video game puzzle. 😵

 

[fernoca]

Hopefully, people will buy this game now. Shame that it was ignored on Wii.

 

[wouwie]

Looks interesting, might buy.

 

[Ingueferroque]

So Vita is confirmed? Someone update the thread title!

 

[2+2=5]

It looks awesome and a game i would totally like, i'll buy it for vita

 

[Oneself]

Looks good enough for a double dip!

 

[Joqu]

Ashamed to admit I never played this on Wii even though I own a copy. I'll be happy to amend that now though.

Any word on PS4 / Vita cross-buy? That's gonna be the deciding factor for what platform I'll pick.

It'll support cross-buy.

 

[NIGHT-]

Hmm.. I wonder how much it'll cost?

It's a bit misleading to describe it as a very slow paced puzzle game when there are 80 stages, and fully 40 of them you have to unlock, and they are not the slower puzzle levels but are more based on using one particular power and reflexes. 40 puzzle levels, 40 "action" stages.

The sub-HD assets look less than great :/ At least use/give the option for some upscale filtering.

It doesn't specify Vita anywhere that I could see in that trailer, unless I'm missing something?

Edit:

You missed this

Derp, thanks. Hooray!

 

[randomlee26]

I was hoping for a new game, but this will certainly do

Yay for PC release

 

[Shaanyboi]

Yaaaay!

[Psychoward]

Wait was the Wii version different from the original game boy version?

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

Really nice to see cross buy and Vita launching simultaneously. Perfect Vita title

 

[Robert at Zeboyd Games]

Wait was the Wii version different from the original game boy version?

Completely different games. There's the original game (NES), the sequel (Game Boy), and the Wii game.

 

[Son Of D]

Well they could do PS3/360 versions too. But I'm guessing we'll see Mobile, Mac and 3DS versions before the other platforms.

 

[Azure Phoenix]

Hoo boy, that's rather rough. I think I'll pass on the PC version in favour of the Vita one.

 

[Strike]

Hmm. Might actually pick this up for Vita.

 

[Carlisle]

Amazing game on Wii and criminally overlooked. It'll be perfect on Vita.

Spoiler

Or Wii U Off TV

 

[The Lamonster]

I have this on Wii. It's good

 

[mattp]

oh dammit...
i don't know why i was thinking they actually had produced these assets at higher resolution and this would look better
oh well. still looks pretty great. better than shitty filters

 

[Green Yoshi]

That's why I will play it on PS Vita.

 

[Melfice7]

But why?

Why do they still call me greedy? and mad? All i want to do is to create the perfect port. Not for graphics, not for money, but for good! A Boy and His Blob will be the first of many, they shall march out of my studio and sweep away every fanboy, every thread until the very forums are in the loving grip of a Blob's hug, and then peace will reign in Neogaf and all the internet shall bow to me in humble gratitude.

Ah okay, had no idea,

 

[WordAssassin]

I have this for Wii but I never played it, and always wished it had released on HD consoles since it's so pretty.

Screens in this thread look fine to me, better than anything the Wii could have done, so I'm happy and will gladly buy this again on the PS4. Do we have a price yet?

 

[Rhaknar]

Any word on price? I'll be deep in Dragon's Dogma by then but if it's like $10 I might bite

$20...not so much

 

[Omega Kirby]

So glad about this, always wanted to play it but never got around to getting it.

You realize it looks 100% identical to the Wii version, right?

 

[Crub]

Let's hope someone can put a vector-like shader in the PC version.

 

[dkeane]

Loved this game, glad it's coming out on other consoles.
Such great artwork and nice little touches.

 

[WordAssassin]

So you're telling me that piping the image through an HDMI cable instead of a VGA will have absolutely no effect at all on the picture clarity?

Not trying to sound like a smartass I'm genuinely asking. I see that they didn't redraw the assets or anything for HD but I assumed that there would at least be some improvement.

 

[ElTopo]

Er, Steam release? Just seems weird to ignore Steam.

The thread title doesnt mention all platforms.

it looks fine on Wii U BC (which IS over HDMI)

Ah, my bad.

 

[Neuromancer]

I heard this was a good game but I didn't have a Wii. I am pleasantly surprised to get to try it now.

 

[WordAssassin]

Hah! For some reason that didn't occur to me, I could always just play it that way I guess if there's really no image quality difference otherwise. Save myself some cashhhh
