This is the kind of content that the PlayStation Store/Xbox Live Marketplace/WiiWare need, because it gives developers a chance to do these experimental projects that wouldn't be funded, otherwise. The only thing that bothers me about this particularly is the whole "interactive screensaver" bit (I understand that's the premise of the whole thing, though). LocoRoco Cocoreccho! (the other PSN title that was described as an "interactive screensaver") is going for $7 on the PlayStation Store.
In terms of price, that's definitely pushing it. You could argue, though, that the Wii Virtual Console isn't really offering much for $7 (SNES games, I think?) in comparison. The PlayStation Store, luckily, isn't like Xbox Live Marketplace where the cheapest price out there is $5. There are a few games available for $3, which is great. I guess the quality is questionable when you're playing something so cheap, though.
But, yeah, there's a definite need for these more -- what you would generally associate as "indie" or off-beat -- games available as downloadable titles.
How ya doing, buddy?
