Edge mag recently ran a report from Rez, Lumines and Meteos developer Q? Entertainment’s press conference, which in general showed the art-house developer keeping up with changing times as best it can, primarily with partnerships for free-to-play microtransaction-based MMORPG games like the PS3’s Angel Love Online.

The developer hasn’t totally given up on its roots, with an iPhone port of Lumines due in the near future, and a video message from Rez designer Tetsuya Mizuguchi promising that work is continuing with Ubisoft on the still un-detailed (and possibly Rez related) ‘Project Eden’, but the biggest and most unexpected surprise of the conference was Q?’Pid Finger Puzzle.

Described as a “brand new type of ‘Touch Communication’ application”, Q?’s iPhone app sees two players using the device’s multi-touch capabilities to trace lines on the screen to ‘un-fuzzify’ “titilating photos”, with an undercurrent of compatibility/love-testing between the pair made clear with an end-level Diagnosis that “gives you all the information you need to take it to the next level. Q’pid’s got your back!”

Arch one eyebrow at more screens and info via Q?’s official Q?’pid site.
