Part Time UFO looks super cute

It’s fun to see companies like Game Freak (Pokémon) and HAL Laboratory (Kirby) branch out with original smaller-scale games every now and then. Part Time UFO is exactly that — it’s an object-stacking action puzzler in which a sentient UFO with an extendable claw has come to Earth in search of friends.

HAL first launched the game last year in Japan, but it’s only now ready for a wider release on iOS and Android. Part Time UFO is available today for $4. The physics-centric design is simple enough, but the charming execution helps set it apart. Even just the screenshots are expressive.

I hope there’s more to come from the company’s mobile division.
