Strange Loop Games had announced yesterday via a blog post that their physics-based platformer Vessel is slowly inching closer to completion and on track to be released sometime this year. A demo for the game will be playable at PAX later this month, and the new trailer will also debut in just a few weeks from now.

WIP :p
 
Strange Loop Games has released Vessel, a terrific-looking PC puzzle-platformer featuring an impressive liquid physics engine.
Vessel is a side-scrolling title in which players create liquid automatons to do their bidding -- mostly for the purposes of cheap labor, as the above video demonstrates. These automatons have evolved within the game's world, however; the more advanced lifeforms in later levels must be creatively manipulated in order to solve complex puzzles.


The game's soundtrack (composed by electronic musician Jon Hopkins) is also notable, as the game uses a custom music engine to give players subtle context-sensitive cues throughout gameplay. I really like this game's atmosphere, and I'm looking forward to checking it out.


Vessel is regularly priced at $14.99, but is available for $13.49 during its launch week. A trial version can be downloaded via Steam. The game is also planned for release for Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network, though no release date has been announced yet.
