HAPPINESS IS A WARM FEZ: PREPARE FOR WONDERFUL
What kind of wonderful is about to happy with Polytron’s Fez? Speculation is running rampant that the key is in that ‘A’: specifically, that the image is tipping us off to an imminent announcement from Microsoft that the game is headed to the Xbox Live Arcade.
To test that theory, I pulled out my early IGF 2008 build of the game (as I do every few weeks when I need a re-up on sunshine) and found that– ah, wait, the ‘A’s been there from the start (that Fez is being created in Microsoft’s XNA and prefers an Xbox 360/Windows pad for optimal play has never been a secret).
That’s not to say that it’s not the trick up Polytron’s sleeve, anyway, but I suppose we’d just be as well off trying to strip hints off the hieroglyphics hiding in the preview shot from earlier this month. Wait, should we?

Actually I’m just hoping they decide to skip the XNA route and get featured on XBLA. It’d be great exposure for the designers and would introduce a wider audience to the product. Your right though, I believe the plan has always been to release the product for PC and X-Box.
Seems reasonable to assume that a demo might be forthcoming.
