"And Yet It Moves" Game Released For Linux

Posted by Michael Larabel on August 06, 2010

For those too impatient to wait for next month for a new native Linux game release when Amnesia: The Dark Descent is set to premiere, there is another game with a native Linux client that was released today: And Yet It Moves.

While the title may seem awkward, And Yet It Moves is described by Broken Rules, the publisher, as "an award winning physics-based platform game where you run and jump through a world made of paper. To aid in solving the twisted mind-bending levels, you possess the unique ability to rotate the world at will! Walls become floors, slides become platforms – but a harmless pile of rocks becomes a hazardous danger when turned upside down!" A teaser video of this game is embedded below.


And Yet It Moves is certainly not your normal game, especially the titles that are available for Linux. The Austrian developers are selling this title to Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X gamers for a price of $9.99 USD at AndYetItMoves.net.
