A new Indie game from No Brakes Games, Human: Fall Flat, was released today on PC, Mac, and Linux. You can pick it up from Steam for $14.99 (USD) with a launch discount bringing it down to $11.99. Console versions are still in development.In Human: Fall Flat, the player must guide Bob through a series of surreal dreamscapes using only Bob’s limited dexterity and the objects around him. By operating Bob’s limbs independently, players must traverse wrecked trainyards, clamber over cavernous wastelands and lay siege to fairy-tale castles, all in the pursuit of… whatever it is Bob is seeking.
Human: Fall Flat encourages repeat playthroughs, as there are often many ways to overcome obstacles and reach each level’s exit. Experimenting with the way Bob interacts with various objects and environments can lead to some genuinely inventive moments—players should never wonder if they can make a solution work, but instead how they will.
“It’s been quite the journey,” said Tomas Sakauskas from No Brakes Games. “From an idea, to a test level, to a prototype, to close to 30 million YouTube hits to date, and now the final release, it’s been an unbelievably wild ride. I’m so excited to see people discover new ways for Bob to complete his journey.”
Developed by No Brakes Games and published by Curve Digital, Human: Fall Flat is now available for Windows PC, Mac and Linux via Steam for $14.99 / €14.99 / £11.99. Console versions are currently in development and are planned to become available later in the year.

This game however, one of the few 2016 games i've played this year, is a contender for my GOTY. It's short, silly, but very fun and well made, i'm a sucker for physics tech demos and this is totally just that, but with lots of things to interact with and an open approach to solving puzzles i didn't stop playing until i finished it.
I have a slightly more in-depth review on Steam, for what that's worth.
And it looks like people will be making some fun stuff with the character editor.
