Roundabout's Trailer Explains Its "Revolving Chauffeur" Service

This up-coming indie puzzle game is all about getting the spins.


The last time I remember a game making me motion sick was [a href=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keS0Hts2LpQ]Descent[/a]. Back in 1995, my body had yet to adapt to 3D gaming, and playing too long would usually have me choking back vomit. Now, indie developer No Goblin is releasing a game to throw those previous decades of equilibrium into jeopardy with [a href=http://roundaboutgame.com/]Roundabout[/a], a puzzle game that's all about reckless driving and lots of loops.

Roundabout follows Georgio Manos, a "revolving chauffeur". Seeing as how Georgio is the world's first such chauffeur, the trailer helpfully demonstrates the concept. Essentially, it's a limo that perpetually spins around, acting as a threat to all life and property in its way. Meanwhile, you'll have to complete missions and solve puzzles, guiding your gyrating vehicle about the open, "maze-like" world. No Goblin describes it as "open world puzzle action" that's equal parts Crazy Taxi and Tony Hawk. Oh, and it also features a love story told in "revolutionary 'full motion video'", which I'm sure will push our VGA cards to their limits.

If Roundabout piques your interest, it's currently up for [a href=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=186357488]Steam Greenlight[/a]. It'll launch for the PC in 2014 for $14.99, but can be [a href=roundaboutgame.com]pre-ordered[/a] now for just $9.99. Meanwhile, I'm going to have a lay down until the spins stop.

It's like a bizzare cross between Katamari, Puru Puru Pururin and GTA... for my sins, I want it.
