I’ve been toying around with the idea of picking up an iPod Touch just for the games. AndSeamancreator Yoot Saito’s title,Gabo, just might have pushed me over the edge. Too bad it’s not happening.
According to a blog posting onSaito’s official blog, the game was essentially complete when Apple denied the project its last breaths of life on their service. It seems Apple thought the game was a bit too odd for public consumption.
Granted, it kind of is. A spin-off of the Japan-onlySeaman 2game, Gabo had you poking, prodding, and raising a monkey-man stranded on a deserted island. Even though the video footage of the game gave me nightmares, my desire to playSeaman 2and inability to speak Japanese madeGabomy most anticipated game on a platform I don’t own.
