World of Goo is easily one of my favorite indie games so I just thought I'd give you all the heads up about this promotion. The sale runs until the 25'th. I think it's for WiiWare as well.

(Sorry if this has been posted already. I searched, but "of" and "goo" are not search friendly)

I'd never played the game so I gave it $5 based on good rep. Been fun so far!

It's a digital game. Has anyone tried inputting one cent? Bandwidth is hardly worth anything and it's a game you probably wouldn't have bought without this promotion, so one cent seems fair.

I wouldn't say that. It's been getting tons of great reviews and winning awards. Looks like plenty of people paid 1 cent but others have paid $50 because that what they felt it was worth to them. I think the logic is that most everyone who would have paid $20 for it already did so now they get to make more people aware of it.

They're also making the results of this promotion available to the public...

If I could get it for the Wii I'd grab it, but I don't have any interest in playing it on my computer. Oh well, it's a nice gesture.

I double checked, the promotion is available for the Wii as well.

I paid $20 for it, but I'd have paid $30 if they let me play with the soundtrack turned off.

How? Via the Wii Channel?

I'm assuming. It says it is anyways. Checking the Wii Shop Channel online says 1500 points though. :? I havn't checked on an actual Wii yet.
