The idea behind ibb & obb is to grab a friend and scratch your head over a series of gravity and physics puzzles, all while nabbing shiny diamonds and dealing with enemies. The controls are as simple as walking and jumping, but it's the warped environments that make the game so intriguing. Fuzzy gates instantly flip gravity for the player that jumps through, allowing ibb to be facing "up" while obb is mirrored below. Crossing the landscape is an exercise in weaving in and out of these portals to pick up momentum and reach the next highest platform. It's all so elegantly simply, but the puzzles will throw your gray matter for a loop.

ibb & obb hit PSN back in August 2013. It puts players in control of the little green guy ibb and the slightly less little purplish guy obb, two characters whose powers are limited to walking and jumping around. The surreal world ibb and obb inhabit is filled with clever gravity-inverting portals that change physics for the character that leaps through. By using these portals and working as a team, ibb and obb can solve the fiendishly difficult puzzles that block their progress. We absolutely loved the game in our ibb & obb co-op review, if that tips the scales at all.

Never heard of ibb and obb?  Shame on you.  The game is a PSN classic, rocking in at the full 5 out of 5 for co-op play.  ibb, and indeed obb, is a 2 player co-op puzzle platformer that can be played either locally or online.  You must use gravity bending tricks and seamless co-op play to successfully traverse each level.  As part of the PS+ Collection, members should certainly check out this game.

The biggest item on the patch list: ibb and obb no longer disappear when passing out of the camera's range. Before the update, jumping too high or falling too low means you simply had to intuit where you would be when you came back into view. This made some of the puzzles extra challenging, as pinpoint accuracy is an enormous boon in the game. With the update, when ibb or obb flies off the screen a small marker shows their position and relative distance. To that we laugh and say HA, because we totally beat that game before that noob-friendly feature was added. We're just hardcore like that, you know.

Released a week prior in North America, ibb and obb suffered a tiny delay for European territories (which, according to Sony, includes Australia). It's out now and all is well in the world, so stop panicking and get the game. Seriously, it's a winner.

ibb and obb is one of the best co-op puzzle games of the last few years. It looks innocent and sounds a bit frightening, but once you sit down to play it with a friend, you, too, shall be hooked....

In ibb and obb, players take control of both ibb and obb as they traverse a strange mirrored world of platform puzzles and gravity that goes all flippedy-flop at the craziest of times. Work with your co-op partner to survive the surreal world as you two nudge things back and forth, hop through portals, use each other's heads as platforms, and play with the cute critters standing around this dual world.

Some of you may remember an indie co-op game called ibb and obb that we mentioned way back on our "Co-Op Games of 2012 Preview" episode of the Co-Opticast. The premise of the game (based on what we've seen so far) is fairly simple: two creatures (the titual ibb and obb) attempt to traverse a landscape that is mirrored across a horizontal plane. Traversing this landscape entails working together and using the inescapable affects of gravity to reach higher ledgers, soar past enemies, and generally pull of some pretty cool jumps.

In the latest episode of the Co-Opticast, the Co-Opticrew talked about all the co-op games coming out in 2012 and those about which we're most excited. Being the resident "indie guy," there were three games that I've been told would be seeing releases this year, but indie games do have a way of suddenly slipping into new release dates. Fortunately, one of the games to which I'm looking forward, ibb and obb - a co-op platformer with a new twist on gravity puzzles - will definitely be seeing a release on the PSN (and possibly the PC) this year according to the game's developer.
