From 1up (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3170584) comes word of "Penny Arcade" developers Hothead Games new project.

Good things can happen when you leave developers to their own devices. Witness Swarm, Hothead Games' latest research and development project that may become a new game sooner than later.
Set in a post-apocalyptic world, Swarm is a proof of concept demo that stars a gaggle of tiny creatures tasked with rebuilding the environment. What was originally a simple attempt to try something new with artificial intelligence quickly grew into the game that you can see above.

Click to watch our exclusive video of the swarm as they learn to work together to negotiate their environment, complete with a step-by-step walkthrough from the people at Hot Head. When you're done watching, leave a comment to let us know what you think!

Looks ok I guess. Liked the PA game so might give this a try to later.

This is kind of cool, I wonder if it will be PC/Mac only though? I wonder how smart they will be at the end of the game?
