The point where I realized that they knew what they were doing with the iPad design (and not just simply porting) was when I realized I could pick up a blob with one finger and scroll the world with another. In other incarnations of the game, you have to drag the blob to an edge of the screen to scroll in that direction.

The iPad port actually does this, look at their preview video and experience the full joy: http://vimeo.com/17390761

The movie that is associated with that clip looks very interesting (Indie Game The Movie). Nice find!

Can't wait for 2011 :).

The linux version will even allow you to plug multiple mice into your computer, and let you and several friends each move around blobs separately.

This works even if you don't have multi-pointer X set up, which is hella neat.
