Machinarium is an award-winning indie puzzle/adventure game with an awesome art style(these are screenshots):

 

 

 

The demo is out now.

First pic reminded me of Beneath a Steel Sky, which is never a bad thing.

The art style actually reminds me of the style in the Planescape campaign setting books.(examples of which are really difficult to find...)

 

 

@vault_overseer: Yes, it's Amanita Design, who also made Samorost.

^Ah, good old Tony DiTerlizzi. I love his style. It's what gave Planescape a special place in my heart.

 

If you enjoy his art, you ought to check out "The Spiderwick Chronicles" (the books, not the movie). Though it's classified as young adult literature, it's actually a good little take, and it's all illustrated (and co-written) by DiTerlizzi.

Oh, I'm well aware of Mr. DiTerlizzi's exploits.

 

Too bad most of the Planescape stuff isn't online.

Downloading this right now.

Finished the demo, the puzzles are pretty clever and I really like the art style. Everyone who has a free hour to try something awesome, be sure to check it out, the demo is only like 40MB.

That was fun, and very beautiful, but I'm not sure how much fun more of the same would be.

Apparently it's a larger game than appears from the demo. May be it's worth $20 after all. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2009/10/16...ium/#more-19738
