Looks pretty interesting!

Wait until you watch it.

I really like the art style of this.

Am I the only one that sees faces in the rock formations in the background? It looks like a profile view of the soldier from TF2

Reminds me of Poyoyo (or however you spell it).

See the constellation ride across the sky...

"The more I play of this, the more comfortable I shit"

Game looks really interesting mechanically

game looks like fun, hope they put a demo out on steam or something.

Im so glad that guy woosed out. Im so tired of quick look ex's i wish more developers trusted giant bomb to show their games. But i understand why they wouldnt lol Also game looks ehhhh it has a cool idea but i dont think its enough to carry a whole game.

I have been waiting to see this since Mr. Boyes came to show it. Looks fucking sick, I can see how level designers can have a lot of fun making some devious shit to destroy the players, not to mention it looks pretty beautiful

This looks kinda cool. Worried that the frustration level might exceed the fun level and my gamer-pride seldom lets me just give up easily.

I'm really impressed.

This game looks pretty damn dope. I'm really liking the mechanics and look. The music was kind of wearing thin on me though but that's mostly because it was the same looping song the whole time. Also, Brad works himself up so much and gets too nervous. Just gotta relax man and let the Pid flow right through you!

Digging the fuck out of the music. Also really like the art style.

@Terrents: Totally agree; Without the developers breathing down their necks and controlling the whole presentation the guys get the chance to be a lot more honest and entertaining. But obviously that's the precise reason why the games usually only get previewed with developers/publishers in the room.

Not into this game at all. Something in my brain says NOPE.

HELL YEH.

Music is very cirque du soleil.

Wonder how much it will cost, I feel like these kinds of games should be closer to 5 than 10 bucks.

Also, that red ballon bandit, looks kind of like Adam Boyes, or is that just me? :P

Great looking game, and the variety in the gameplay looks awesome.

Game looks cool and its made by some good devs. They also get points for not doing a quick look ex.

i liked the part where Brad panicked

This music is boss.

Jesus this thing is still in development? (Rhetorical question don't answer it or do if you wanna waste your time)

It feels like ages since I last time saw anything from this game. Actually I had completely forgot about it up until now.

Absolutely amazing. Could be one of the best indie games this year.

...um, the game was just announced a few months ago.

That's probably the trailer I was thinking of, even though I remember it as being older.

Also Brad just replied to one of my comments! I feel like I could knock down a brick wall right now... O_O

I will never feel this special again.

BOOM,

but seriously though, i thought when adam left beefy that this thing was dead, good to see its still alive in some shape,game looks pretty cool

Looks fantastic.

That second song sounds like an acoustic version of an NES Mega Man song. So they still do pretty amazing soundtracks, is it the same guy who did the BCR music?

The music is done by Retro Family.

are the videos loading kind of a lot lately or is it just me? cause youtube works fine.

@DigTheDoug: Cool, thanks for the reply. Seems like I got one of their influences right. But then again, who doesn't love Mega Man music?

Well that's just funny. Still, games take time. Especially one that requires you to have some level of precision to it. This game looks neat and frantic as all hell. What were some of the other items, Brad? Or are those way too in flux to be worth talking about?

Those puzzles remind me so much of the gravity beam in Portal 2. Only in 2D, which is cool. It's just the exact same amount of wiggling around to try and make it over.

Pid looks cool & interesting. I would be willing to try it when it has a final release.

Not to mention Pid was without a publisher until June/July this year and it is being made by a team of 15 people who had no real financial backing.

I think some slack needs to be cut, considering also that the game is due out in a few months or so.

Pelvic inflammatory disease?!!?!?

@Brad: also the name might be a reference to two things-

a pid controller

or

a process identifier

This looks alright.

i would call it a repuslor beam

Looks damn cool, and kudos to the developers for letting GB play it themselves. Hopefully they're not discouraged by the reaction to difficulty, would love to have another proper balls-hard platformer.

Really digging the music and art.

Profanity Inducing Device.

Yeah. I'm getting a bit of that, and a bit of Genesis-era Sonic the Hedgehog. Awesome.

I'm sold .

Slack needs to be cut? Is announcing a game a year before it's release really that unusual? Hell, Fez was first announced 5 years ago, this is nothing.
