Quick Look: The Splatters

Cool, interested to see what this is like.

This game looks interesting.

not much game development in Israel, but plenty of DEVELOPMENT if you catch my drift

ha ha politics

Thanks for keeping the content steady, Patrick.

I'm scared of what this quick look will be. The splatters...

Is it just me or is the sound quality off? 

@The_Laughing_Man: the volume seems to change

@The_Laughing_Man: volume seems to change

wasn't there a QLEX of this a long time ago?

@The_Laughing_Man: No vinny or dave this week i believe so its kind of amazing ql vids have been going up at all XD

I once had a bad case of the splatters that kept me out of commission for awhile too just like the delayed videos this week.

seem to have been a lot of indie fluid dynamic-based action-puzzle games lately. Strange!

After playing some of Angry Birds lately on facebook (as my phone is too stupid to run it), definitely getting an Angry Birds vibe from this & kinda glad that I didn't get this as it looks like parts are fun but plenty of times of working on finesse/angles of shots. Game itself looks quite good & curious to see what the team does next.

I love Brad's reaction to the replay after sucking at the game for 15mins

Did I just watch q videos of a game of other people playing the game who are watching other people play the game.........

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brad is the worst at video games. Love.

I'm waiting for the follow up which focuses on smoke dynamics.

It's called The Vapours. *exitsstage*

I love long video features

lol

Where are the quick looks for those PolyJam games?

This looks really cool actually, and it got a surprisingly amount of depth it looks like.

This flips out near the end

Yeah this is very much doing the Angry Birds thing which involves a mixture of trial, error and blind luck. Angry Birds is a bad game because of this, and this has the same problem.

Edit: hmm, the time rewinding stuff is pretty cool.

Holy shit! Those clips at the end are insane.

@deerokus: did you watch all the way to the end? things get very different

Haha, poor Brad, he gets so frustrated.

Those videos at the end have really sold me on the game.

@Fleck0: so I see! mind blown!

Man, the game looks super slick once you nail down how it plays. Those replays were insane, and I was pretty much reacting the same way as Ryan and Brad, haha.

There was a PAX vid of it last year.

Wow, that's pretty cool. The replays totally sold me on it.
 
I can't wait for fluid dynamics games to go 3D next generation. Imagine a Bomberman where explosives travel down corridors realistically. Wait, I guess that's still 2D since it's top down.

I thought so too. Must have been part of the PAX Prime coverage, I guess.

The Splatters just does not look fun.

I get a bad case of this when I drink too much Stella.

+1

This game does not look like much fun. Plus, I can get a similar experience for about $1 on my phone, it seems like.

This looks crazy fun, I wish it was on Steam!

Guessing you didn't watch the end...

Now now, no need to incite. Surely we can come to some sort of SETTLEMENT here.

According to a Gamespot reviewer, this game is hugely derivative of Angry Birds.

Not seeing it.

Wow those videos at the end were crazy.

Holy shit! That looks awesome! Between this, Fez, and The Pinball Arcade, XBLA is blowing up.

Actually, Angry Birds Space is pretty fucking great.

@MrKlorox: Erm, gas is a gas guy. Smoke is gas+solid.

@MrKlorox: For some reason I read fluid as liquid. Derp.

My jaw dropped when they started watching the high score clips and did not aright itself until the end of the video.

This game pulled a Braid.

Is this an old quick look or did they just quick look a game that reminds an awful lot of this?

Okay, I thought this was a pretty simplistic little puzzler, but that clip at the end was crazy.

To be honest about halfway through the video I walked away from the monitor. All i can say is I am glad I came back for the end. I just might pick this up now. Damn you!, cheap, impulsive, $10 games!
