Cloud

cloud logoYesterday, I bumped into Cloud, a fantastic game developed by students of the USC School of Cinema and Television — I decided to blog about it here because of its undeniable Japanese feel... From the game's kanji based logo, its cute character to the Joe Hisaishi inspired, super-dreamy soundtrack — they are all stylish and well-chosen references to Japanese anime and games. The gameplay (= collecting clouds) is also original and definitely harder than it seems at first — so, be sure to check out Cloud (tip: read the readme.txt notes before you begin!).

Also worth a look: the site's extra downloads section, featuring beautiful wallpapers and the game's complete soundtrack.
