Oh boy. Things are going to get wooly around here if you keep this up.
Some of these are so funny, I think I pulled a stitch.
Balls.

Yeah, it's time. I'm glad the price point of this game is reasonable. I figured they'd try to fleece us.

Really nice soundtrack for the game.

I played it through EA access and was going to buy it today but I decided to wait. The game is amazing, beautiful, and fun. The thing is EA access is going to be worthless to me if I keep buying them when I can play for free in six months. I'd love to support the developers on this one but money has been tighter as of late so I could only choose one game (gravity rush for ps4, which is also amazing). I do highly recommend it.
The game looks incredible. I still haven't gotten around to buying Ori and the Blind Forest though.
That's a great point, I feel the same. Now I had completely forgot it was on my EA Access so I think I'll DL it during the game tonight. Thanks for the heads up.
I put about 3 hours into the game tonight via EA Access and got to what I feel was near the end of the 2nd level and my little yarn boy got stuck. Not me, I was getting through the puzzles at a fair pace, neither too easy nor too frustrating. I may restart to my previous checkpoint (if possible, I may have to redo the whole level) since I was enthralled enough to want to finish. Very disappointing to run into a glitch in an otherwise engaging indie title.
Overall the the game is very pretty (but not mind-blowing), controls responsive enough for the action, and a great assortment of puzzles to figure out your traversal (though I didn't see more than 1 way to solve a puzzle). There are hidden items to find along the way which is about the only extra next to completing the level I have seen (no added powers, leveling up, time awards, multiplayer, etc, etc,...seems bare bones in extra stuff). Music is relaxing and fits theme. I guess I am on the fence about buying until I hear how long the game is and where game takes you on difficulty.
It is priced at $19.99 ($17.49 for EA Access members) which seems fair from what I've seen. Of course knowing it will likely be available in the EA Vault in a year gives me further hesitancy.

Finished it, timer says 6hrs 10mins. Really tugs on the heart strings. Its really a beautifully woven world and there is a nice variety in the aesthetics. Puzzles are easy and mostly really obvious, though I can see a challenge going back and roping in all the collectables. There are some sections that have a small window for success but only once or twice did I have to retry several times and the checkpoints are generous, so I never felt strung out.
I've played through 4 levels. This game really is something else and everything I wanted from the moment of the reveal. EA, if you're reading this, I'll pay anything for a soundtrack. Make it happen damn it. Until then:
