flOw

FlOw PS3 is the natural extension of the original flOw web browser game on the Playstation3, distributed through the Playstation Network. It is the debut game of thatgamecopany.

Initially an MFA thesis, flOw is a game about piloting an aquatic organism through a surreal biosphere where players consume other organisms, evolve, and dive into the abyss. With an embedded design of DDA (dynamic difficulty adjustment), players with differing skills levels can intuitively customize their game experience and enjoy the game at their own pace.

In flOw for the PLAYSTATION3 you can play as one of 5 creatures, each in a unique environment. Lose yourself in the crisp "deep blue" in full HD at 1080p and 5.1 Surround Sound. Use the SIXAXIS wireless controller for an organic experience that will allow you to glide, flit, and flOw though the universe.

You can purchase the game through PlayStation Store within the PS3 cross media bar and download the game through the internet.
