Has anyone else been playing the OSMOS Demo? It's fairly short, but addicting and fun. 15mb DL via steam, with the full-game (supposedly) being released 8/18.

It's an Indie game, where you play an organism (mote?) floating in stuff, trying to absorb other stuff before it absorbs you. Anything smaller (blueish orbs) is food, anything larger (reddish orbs) is your enemy. Basic strategy elements: to move you lose mass, making you smaller and vulnerable to others, and you get bigger by absorbing smaller organisms.

It's simple, addictive, beautiful, and the soundtrack totally immerses you in the game.

small fraps i made of the demo:
