E3 2014: Hands-on (again) with Metrico for Vita
Fourth time lucky
We've seen Metrico before. Many times. We saw it at Gamescom, Casual Connect, and GDC. And then we saw it again this week at E3.
But we don't mind. We'll take any excuse to play some more of this creative and wicked smart puzzle-platformer.
Inspired by infographics, Metrico features a world that is driven by stats. A platform might represent the horizontal position of your character, so it will rise and fall as you run left and right.
It's filled to bursting point with clever ideas, as you'll see in the video above. Hopefully, it will be out soon. That way, we can play it in our homes, rather than in a crowded expo centre surrounded by noise and sweat.

Die hard Suda 51 fan and professed Cherry Coke addict, freelancer Peter Willington was initially set for a career in showbiz, training for half a decade to walk the boards. Realising that there's no money in acting, he decided instead to make his fortune in writing about video games. Peter never learns from his mistakes.
