It was a premise...

I got the original game through PlayStation Plus. It really is a fun, addicting and creative puzzle-platform game. I am interested in seeing how this new 3D version will turn out. Amazon is taking pre-orders for it now, looks like it will retail for $29.99. If you would like to learn more about this game check out this interview with the game's developers: http://indiegames.com/2012/02/interview_fishing_cactus_on_shi.html
This game is great fun. BUT it's incredibly frustrating that it doesn't have checkpoints, meaning that you get sent back to the beginning of the level when you die.
Also can induce motion sickness.
