'Fez' Finally Comes Out April 13th
Thu Mar 29, 2012 at 01:30 PM ETTags: FEZ, Xbox 360, XBLA (all tags)
The indie game that fans have been salivating for over the last several years is finally coming out!
The game 'Fez' is absolutely brilliant conceptually. It's a 2D platformer that requires you to move things in 3D to create new 2D paths... look, just check out the video. 'Super Paper Mario' meets 'Echochrome' in a weird way. It's an exciting idea and it's been in the works for quite some time. Originally announced back in 2009, 'Fez' still hasn't seen a release.
On April 13th, the day finally comes. 'Fez' will be released on the Xbox Live Arcade at a price of 800 Microsoft Points, or $10 in real money. Since the game was made entirely with Microsoft's XNA game creation suite, don't expect to see it hit PSN any time soon.

'Indie Game: The Movie' Wins Best Editing at Sundance
Mon Jan 30, 2012 at 10:30 AM ETTags: Indie Game: The Movie, FEZ, Braid, Super Meat Boy, Sundance 2012 (all tags)
The independent movie about independent games has picked up an accolade at the biggest independent film festival around.
'Indie Game: The Movie' is a documentary that's all about, if you couldn't guess, indie games. It follows the creators of games like 'Super Meat Boy,' 'Braid' and the upcoming 'FEZ.' It's been in the works for over a year and was created by two first time filmmakers. It's also pulled in a significant honor at the Sundance Film Festival - Best Editing.
"Sooo, last night was kinda the best night ever...," write James and Lisanne, the pair behind the movie. "When we started this project, we had no idea it would evolve and progress to the point of taking us up on stage at the Sundance Film Festival."
This honor should help things along for 'Indie Game: The Movie' and, hopefully, get it released theatrically in a less limited capacity.

'Fez' Rated for XBLA - One Step Closer to Release
Fri Dec 30, 2011 at 11:30 AM ETTags: FEZ, XBLA, Indie Games (all tags)
We've been waiting a long time for 'Fez,' but it looks like we won't have to wait too much longer.
If you've never heard of 'Fez,' it's high time you did. It's a 2D side scroller that allows you to rotate the world in 3D as a means of creating new avenues for you to travel. Yeah, it's a bit hard to explain - just watch the video.
'Fez' has been in development for quite some time and practically everyone with a penchant for creative indie games has been looking forward to it just as long. As it turns out, despite a significant delay last year, the game may finally be seeing the light of day.
'Fez' was just rated by the PEGI - Europe's ESRB - which means that a complete or nearly complete game must be in hand. We're hoping sooner rather than later, but creator Phil Fish puts the current release date as, simply, 2012.
