PixelJunk's Eden = awesome electro-organic* gameplay

Today I played the most beautiful game called Eden.

I usually never play video games but this afternoon was a special gaming day at school and I found myself in front of a Play Station.

I really enjoyed the aesthetics and sound design of Eden a lot. It wasn't too complicated to get into either since the number of buttons required were kept to a minimum and the use of the joystick on the controller made gameplay especially intuitive.

* Electro-organic is a word I came up with a long time ago to describe a certain aesthetic I enjoy -- a combination of very digital design elements (e.g. pixels, vectors) with natural world inspiration (e.g. plants). It fell out of my vocabulary a couple of years ago but I am happy to see it return.
