The Dream Machine is a point-and-click adventure game made with natural materials: "We decided to steer as far away from all things polygonal as possible, and are actually building all the environments, props and characters out of clay and cardboard."

    So in summary … The Neverhood.

  • Laroquod

    The Neverhood was a cool game, but I guess it must be universally disliked, since everyone seems to think that now that it’s been done, there is no point in talking about any other clay-based games. Just refer to the Neverhood — end of conversation.

    P.S. The Neverhood

    Hey, wasn’t The Neverhood kind of like this?

    The Neverhood?
    The Neverhood.

    But beyond using clay, being a point-and-click game and kinda trippy… the games haven’t got that much in common. Never mind Neverhood was great, this game seems great too and I’ll buy it when it comes out.

    (also buy… err swedish? and all that :))

    I can’t believe no one has mentioned The Neverhood yet.

  • Wordguy

    Oops, I meant to say “The Neverhood”.

    Don’t forget about 1996′s The Neverhood – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neverhood

  • Wordguy

    Reminds me a bit of the game The Neverhood, which was created using claymation (and with an awesome Tery Scott Taylor soundtrack).
