The PC edition of Zoe Mode's splendid musical puzzler Chime will cost a mere $4.99, Steam has revealed by opening pre-purchasing--the same as it did on Xbox 360.

A bit like Lumines blended with Tetris, Chime involves building up a music track by combining different-shaped blocks to cover the play area. Tracks from artists including Moby and Orbital's Paul Hartnoll are on offer, with the PC's 'Portal Edition' also packing Jonathan Coulton's iconic song 'Still Alive' from the Portal soundtrack--as seen below.

Chime: Portal Edition will be released on September 6 for download via Steam. A portion of Zoe Mode's royalties--working out to around 25¢--will go towards charity.

It's weird, reading the history on the game and how all the music was donated and it was for a charity you'd think more than just 25 cents would be going to the said charity. That's just 1/20th of the profits, considering it's a download game, with probably low overhead and low development costs.
