This is the trailer for a new Xbox Live Indie Games title calledBlocks That Matter, just released yesterday and coming later this year for PC, Mac and Linux. It’s a hybrid of puzzle and platformer gameplay from a French outfit called Swing Swing Submarine and looks like it could be a lot of fun. You are a drilling robot digging underground to save your creators from kidnappers who intend to steal their work, which is charming as hell.

I can say with absolute certainty that we’ll be playing this game onSaturday Morning Hangoverthis week (Saturday, 10am Pacific), as a smile somehow managed to creep past my nature and on to my face while I watched this. How delightful.
