Scribblenauts Unlimited is coming to Windows, reports
Polygon, saying the PC edition of 5th Cell's action/puzzle game will use Steamworks to distribute user-created content (thanks
loonyboi). They offer some first-hand impressions of this version and its new interface:
Using the keyboard to quickly type in all those commands, Aubert was able to burn through the in-game event, which bundles a series of quests into a larger goal. 5th Cell promises more than 300 puzzles throughout the game.
Currently, the PC version of Scribblenauts Unlimited supports two control schemes: WASD movement for Max and click-to-move control with the mouse, similar to the tap-to-move scheme of previous Scribblenauts titles on Nintendo DS and iOS.
5th Cell confirmed during our demo that the Steam version of Unlimited will feature Steam achievements in addition to sharing of objects via Steam Workshop. But Slaczka declined to confirm whether Scribblenauts Unlimited would include any Team Fortress 2 goodies (or vice versa).

It's the Labor Day weekend here in the U.S., marking the unofficial end of summer. This is traditional a big occasion for cooking out, so we'll probably do that. As if I need an excuse to get the fire going in Manstovia.
R.I.P.:
Why was 34,969 Count von Count's magic number? Thanks nin.
