    The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom

    Game » consists of 4 releases. Released Feb 17, 2010

    Enter a macabre and comical silent film world filled with mischief, time travel, and delicious pie. Record yourself and harness your time bending abilities to cooperate, compete against, and disrupt your past, present, and future selves. Winterbottom's debut misadventures present whimsical spin on the notions of time, space, and play.

    Out now on XBLA, and it's pretty good.

    Add The Misadventures of PB Winterbottom to your Xbox 360 download queue.
     
    I'm really liking it so far.  While its presentation has a certain "website flash game" look, the art design, music, and storytelling has a charm to it.  The puzzle difficulty ramps up nicely as well.  I blasted through the first set of levels, had to do a little thinking in the second set of levels, and am now sitting with the controller down for a few minutes trying to figure out each level in the third set of levels.  The game looks pretty short though - only five sets of levels and an assortment of challenge puzzles, but the game is only 800 points ($10 USD).
     
    You can download the demo using the link up top, but I would recommend just buying it.  This is definitely one of the better XBLA releases.

    After all, who doesn't like to go through dimensions in search for pie!?

    it's pretty awesome
    i've already s ranked it, but i'll probably go back once a few of my friends have played it to make sure i stay up high on the leaderboards
    essentially it's just like braid, but with a different mechanic and with no ridiculously hard achievement

    @delicious_lie: You already have the S rank for it? O.O 
     
    Maybe I just suck at puzzles. But I bought it today and it's pretty neat.
