The A.V. Club writes: "The first screen of Osmos is a text display of Newton's third law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. You're forgiven if you expected a Darwin quote. After all, Osmos is a game in the tradition of flOw and Spore, where you play a mote who eats other motes to grow big and powerful. The difference in Osmos is that you have to eject mass to propel yourself around the environment (hence the nod to Newton). So as you strive to grow bigger, you're obligated to make yourself smaller. That small innovation is the difference between a game that makes a superficial observation about "survival of the fittest" and one that hooks into a deeper sense of simple motion."
The new Humble Mozilla Bundle allows playing some great indie titles directly on your internet browser, besides the usual DMR-free and Steam ket versions.
John Bedford (Modojo): If you don't already own the fabulous Osmos for your iPhone or iPad, you can grab the game from the App Store today for a mere $0.99 on either device - that's down from the usual price of $4.99 on iPad and $2.99 on iPhone.
