When I first saw the synopsis for Breeze my immediate reaction was that it sounded like something ThatGameCompany’s lawyers should be interested in. However looking into it in more detail, it looks just the sort of game that makes the Xbox’s Indie Games distribution channel such a good idea.
The idea of the game is control the breeze, or more precisely a fan to guide a flower around 60 levels of puzzles of increasing difficulty. Although the game does have chilled out vibe, you can compete against the clock for extra longevity.
Breeze is developed by Null City Software, which is a one-man software developer, and as you can see from the trailer, typifies everything that is great about Indie Games on the Marketplace. Breeze is available now, both as a free demo and the full game for 240MSP.

i can see this working well with ‘move’ if it ever makes it way to PS3. Title screen certainly has a bit of ‘Flower’ about it !!!

Ah, that looks lovely. I’ll get that, definitely. Takes a lot for me to say that but it’s true. Nice and relaxed.

So like charmless 2D Flower then?
Or more like those little spaceship games where you have to go through a cave and land on a pad.

Looks amazingly like flower that title screen, but the gameplay is nothing like it. Odd.

that game lacks the blades of grass to compete with flower….
