Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 8:41 am ¶Congratulations for this win. I hope this game does well. I look forward to more news.
XBox 360 – Demo? I hope so.
Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 9:36 am ¶Congratulations on your award! I recently saw some gameplay videos of Fez and it looks amazing. Any word on when and where I’ll be able to get a copy?
Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 10:10 am ¶Congratulations to everyone on the project. Wow. The feedback here at home is incredible. People in the street are chanting Kokoromi’s praises. Can’t you hear them from wait over there?
Jokes aside, this is the biggest coverage I’ve ever seen for an indie game. Everything from Gametrailers, to Kotaku and Joystiq are posting and buzzing about Fez. Oh and Awesome piece in Edge Mag!
Way to nail it on the head.
LET’S GET AWESOME!
Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 11:54 am ¶WOOO! Shouldn’t come as a surprise though.
Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 1:19 pm ¶Well done. Can’t wait to play it. Just wondering, did you get any influence from Cave Story? and what program is used to make the music?
good luck with the game, I’ll be getting it on release.
Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 2:32 pm ¶Congrats!!!
Bien hâte de dépenser des points Xbox sur ceci!
Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 5:06 pm ¶Congrats!
Posted 21 Feb 2008 at 6:50 pm ¶Congratulations, the game looks very good and I look forward to getting my grubby hands on it.
The other reason I’m posting is that the game is now out there growing in the public conscious. Links are flying around and people are talking about it. But it would appear to be very difficult to find out much information on the game.
I will admit I didn’t dig down too much into your links but I certainly expected some big FEZ link on the site to point me to more information.
Posted 22 Feb 2008 at 2:50 am ¶Well deserved, the game looks (and sounds!)amazing.
Posted 22 Feb 2008 at 4:14 pm ¶Can’t wait to get my hands on it
Congratulations. I’m not sure if I like the idea that this won an award for visuals when the style is so heavily based on Cave Story, but the transition from 2D to 3D effects definitely deserve some recognition. I will eagerly await this game.
Posted 22 Feb 2008 at 6:27 pm ¶Congratulations, I just saw Fez on 1up and loved the concept. I hope to play the game in the future.
Posted 22 Feb 2008 at 11:39 pm ¶Congratulations, it deserved it. Aside from the choice of pixels, it was the gorgeous palette of colors that did it, I think.
Would you care to release the one level demo before the official launch of the game, perhaps? Maybe to me?
I’m just sayin’…
Posted 23 Feb 2008 at 1:33 am ¶Is a PSP port in the plans at all?
Or at least Wii?
Posted 23 Feb 2008 at 6:24 pm ¶YAY!, so when can we play it?
Posted 24 Feb 2008 at 10:41 am ¶A-a-a-a-awesome! Really impressed and pleased for you.
P.S. Sausages

[...] Innovation award, so my prediction wasn’t completely off. I was also happy to see Fez taking home the Excellence in Visual Art award as it deserves [...]
