GDC: Noby Noby Boy

We missed this one amongst the mayhem that is GDC. Kotaku have posted news that the popular PSN game Noby Boby Boy is coming to iPhone. The strange game from Katamari creator Keita Takahashi, sees you stretching a worm/dog like ‘Boy’ by eating objects in the world. This length, in turn, ads to the length of all other players online, and makes Noby Noby Girl in outer space grow too. Currently ‘Girl’ is growing at the real world equivalent of 40 million meters a day. Keita wants to link the iPhone edition with the PlayStation users to increase this length in order to stretch ‘Girl’ across the entire solar system.

I’ve played the PSN version and it’s definitely a unique experience. Look out for more news on this crazy game.

Weirdest. Game. EVER. But kinda addicting for some reason. This kind of game is perfect for the iPhone.
