It's a tad on the freezing side tonight here in Los Angeles as I write this with temps hitting in the 30's, which admittedly is no big deal in many areas of the country but here it makes people a tad out of sorts.  With all this chilly weather, there's nothing I can think better than to curl up in front of a fireplace, pick up my Nexus 7 and fire up the gorgeous, part art, part game experience that is 'Contre Jour'.  If you haven't played 'Contre Jour' yet then you're in for a treat.  Here's some game play footage to get you in the mood for what's in store.

In 'Contre Jour' you have to guide the mysterious eyeball like creature, 'Petit' on his journey through fanciful landscapes that definitely have a dark, otherworldly 'Tim-Burtonesque' atmosphere.  You pull, tap and swipe various gadgets such as tendrils, air geysers, and pulleys to complete the puzzles and all the while you'll lose yourself in the mesmerizing orchestral soundtrack penned by David Ari Leon.  There's 12 different elements for you to master and the game is structured as 5 chapters featuring 100 unique and challenging levels.  Definitely worth the $1.99 price, hit the link below and let me know what you think of 'Contre Jour'.
