のびのびBoy - NOBY NOBY BOY first impressions

What is NOBY NOBY BOY?
It's a cool casual game where you take BOY, and stretch him anyway you wish. It's kooky, quirky, and pretty fun actually. Aside from stretching you eat up just about anything you can see and fart it out if you are not stretched long enough, like a snake, to hold it. Yes, I realize how bizarre this sounds.

One neat feature is the ability to create movies inside the game. You can create regular movies and also link up directly to a youtube account and upload with no hassles. Check out one of my first movies playing the games,



Another interesting feature is the relationship of BOY, SUN, and GIRL. As the player takes the role of BOY, you stretch him as far as he can and report your progress to SUN (which you can reach by flapping your arms and flying high enough!) SUN then tallies your length AND all the other players of NOBY NOBY BOY that are signed onto the PSN network and updates a world wide length. This length stretches GIRL and when she gets long enough, GIRL will be stretched far enough to reach the Moon and eventually other planets as well. Each new planet gives the player a new area to explore in. I'll write some more feedback as I get more into the game. That's going to be hard though since I have Flower on my to do list as well.

If you're looking for something simple and easy to play you can't go wrong with NOBY. It's a quick five bucks in the States and that can't even buy you a movie ticket anymore.
