New LucasArts Game 'Lucidity' Revealed (Updated)

Update: More details and the first screenshots of Lucidity have arrived, with LucasArts specifying that the downloadable game will hit PC and Xbox 360 on October 7.

The company also noted that the "puzzle platformer" was crafted by the same internal team responsible for the recent Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition remake.

Original: After months of rumors about a new original effort dubbed "Lucidity," LucasArts today officially revealed the project. Coming to PC and Xbox 360 (as a Live Arcade download), Lucidity is a "puzzle platformer," going by project lead David Nottingham.

"What we mean by that is that it looks like a platformer, but it's actually more of a puzzle game," he told GameTrailers TV. "You're not actually controlling Sofi, you're placing pieces down in front of her to create a safe passage through this dream world."

An exact release date and price were not provided, though host Geoff Keighley noted that the Xbox Live Arcade version would be out later this month.
