A Boy And His Blob Preview

I spent an hour or so playing A Boy And His Blob for the Wii for this preview, and word that springs to mind is "adorable." This is the kind of game the Wii was designed for.

David Crane Interview: Game-Designing Icon 1-On-1 With Billy Berghammer

A Boy and His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia was one the hardest games for me to play as a kid.

Exclusive Interview: WayForward's Voldi Way

Just about everyone who played innovative NES platformer A Boy and his Blob fell in Nintendo-Love with the game. Feeding magical jellybeans to a shape-shifting, alien, jellied companion to solve puzzles is just somehow so right. So when I heard the franchise was being revived for a new generation, I had to contact developer WayForward and get...

'Boy and his Blob' For Wii Announced

Just about everyone who played 1989's A Boy and his Blob for the Nintendo Entertainment System loved it. There's something bizarrely wonderful about feeding a gelatinous goo-pile jellybeans so that he turns into a ladder. But luckily, if you missed it, a new version is coming to the Wii this fall! Majesco and WayForward are responsible for...
