Fez is that blew the collective minds of gamers at the 2008 Independent Games Festival. The creative use of 2D mixed with 3D was awesome enough, but the effects were enhanced with the awesome soundtrack by chiptune artist 6955.

Three unreleased demo tracks are available for free in the form of an EP (implying that a full album is on the way?) that Polytron Corporation has made available as a free download here. There’s also a torrent available right here. Or, for the super-duper-hardcore, there’s the mega-limited, awesomely-packaged 8cm CDR (pictured above) for only $10 — ten fucking dollars, people!!! — and it’s limited to just 250 copies in the entire galaxy!!!

Whoever buys this for me gets a blowjob, clitoris tickle, or ham sandwich in return. I’ll make the ham sandwich myself, but I can’t say the same about the other rewards.

Totally irrelevant, but somewhat related side story:

So, back when Fez was first announced, my girlfriend made these awesome plushies of Gomez, the game’s main character. She hand-made 50 of these things and sold ‘em all on Etsy. Eventually, Phil Fish from Polytron Corporation caught wind of it and sent an email asking that she limits production to no more than 50 because what my gf was doing was basically copyright infringement and they’d hoped to make Fez plushies at some point. He also asked if he could have one.

The plan was for my GF to make a Fez for everyone at Polytron, but after the initial 50, her hands were all kinds of jacked up, so she took a small break which turned into a huge break which turned into her never getting around to it at all. I feel pretty shitty about the whole ordeal and I think that Phil Fish hates my guts and everything Albotas-related. Maybe I’ll get the GF a sewing machine for X-mas so she can finished what her lazy woman ass started.
