Right, well, there’s my week made: every once in a while there’s a game that seems to know exactly which of your buttons to press and before you know it you’re smitten. This time it’s Kimi to Boku to Rittai (You, Me and the Shapes), a new WiiWare game from former D2 creator and Newtonica collaborator Kenji Eno.

The gameplay? Deceptively simple: drop helpless and unpredictable people onto a series of ever-more-complex interconnected cubes and attempt to maintain some semblance of balance and harmony.

The hook? God, just look at that retro-future shiny vector style that sits so perfectly next to Newtonica‘s star-spheres. The game is expected to hit stateside WiiWare in coming months, and appears that it’ll give Nintendo and Skip’s own ArtStyle series a serious run for their money.
