It's a thing!

Giant Bomb Quick Look

edit: I've heard it referred to as Happy Action TV, so it could be called that.

Free? Marvelous...until they say it's US only.

But I will be picking it up. That dubstep vid looks fun.

Tell it to the cleaning lady on Monday.

Wow!

Though, think you'll still have to purchase DFHAT, if you want all 36 channels...

If not

Wow!

If you want to see the future of gaming, then watch a bunch of seven year olds play this. 2D holodeck

8/10. Better than ...

Had a go just now. Initial impression it's fun with the kids (they had a bit too much energy for my liking, this fixed that

)
There's still quite some channels you can only "try". I did see some DLC that was also free but didn't get it yet. Maybe that is the missing content?

@Red_Bool Make sure you download the other files. 1 is in fact a key to unlocked the full game and the other stargazer is free DLC.

Explains the pay structure for those that don't get it now.

I downloaded this for my young kids and they love it. Games like this justify my Kinect purchase. It's simple, pure play fun. Likewise the Wreckateer was fun, but a bit tricky for the very youngest. But you can't argue with free!

really enjoyed it with my 2/5 year old yesterday as well.

Glad I loaded it up yesterday, as it's a bit sneaky to allow you to download it for 'free', but then not actually give access to everything unless you actually play the game during the free period.

Would like them to add the mature content as DLC at some point.

Not sure if you have already found out, but the very same games on Happy Action Theatre can be played on Double Fine's newest game, Kinect Party ... a sequel of sorts really.

I have played HAT to death and this doesn't offer a whole lot more to be honest, but still, I cannot complain seeing as it is (temporally) free!
