Guys, if you liked Braid and Cave Story and World of Goo and all the other great indie games that have made it through to XBLA, Wiiware, and so on, you owe it to yourself to check out this gameplay trailer (the teaser is here) for Fez, a space-bending platformer that might make you feel a bit of that old Portal disorientation.

I’ve been looking forward to this since it was announced ages ago, and the recent acquisition of Disasterpeace for the music is just icing on the cake. It’ll be out on XBLA later this year.
