I like it too. It looks really nice to me, mostly good colours, cute characters and nice objects.
Two things i came across, at least in the videos, were a) some objetcs don't look after clay anymore, a confusing style between clay and computer and b) that the animations aren't fluent.
I also once experimented with getting clay made figures on the screen. The idea came up whilst claying with my daughter but at least with the quick shot i gave it it was a) a problem of proper lightining that it looks like clay in the end and b) that it takes quite some time and model skills as well getting proper figures done. Also some of my figures weren't meant to last whilst i tried to animate them. I guess if you do it properly you need some internal skeleton like structure.
Are they any other clay looking games around yet? The only other one i have in mind would be Wallace & Grommit from TTG ( http://www.telltalegames.com/wallaceandgromit ). I also remember one or two console games but i don't know if they skipped them, are still in development or have been released already.
Wish you good luck for the IGF, there are quite some good looking games around this year. With such a variety it makes a lot of fun looking at video games again.
