A Boy and His Blob review for Joystiq

aboyandhisblobjoystiqreviewMy review for A Boy and His Blob (I always type "blog" first, then have to erase it) has gone live at Joystiq. Here's an excerpt:

A Boy and His Blob tells the story of an extra-terrestrial, amorphous lifeform and his young handler as they combat an evil emperor, hellbent on doing what all evil emperors want to do: kill most and rule over what's left. The only thing standing in this extreme evildoer's way is the boy's willingness to feed the Blob different jellybeans, which cause him -- it? -- to transform into different shapes, thereby overcoming the game's many obstacles.
