Intermediate Development State: Limbo

Limbo looks amazing. We're all certain we've posted this video before, but there's no evidence of that on the site. Indeed, the short clip is three years old, but Limbo is up for the Technical Excellence award at this year's IGF, and the trailer is haunting and brilliant. So throwing caution to the wind, risking that snorted comment, below you can see why it's been nominated, and join us in wanting to see whether the game is able to pull of such seemingly natural movement. I mean, when he jumps, he jumps like he doesn't have springs in his shoes and isn't made of floaty polystyrene. That alone makes this game stand out.
