News has been slow on Kim Swift’s upcoming Quantum Conundrum for XBLA but we got a whopping two new screens from the game which is way more than one! From what we see, we’ll be dodging our fair share of lasers and manipulating gravity to some respect. Square Enix and Airtight Games seem to be only teasing us slowly with each short reveal. One thing’s for sure, we’re excited to see more of this game next year so hit the break to catch these screenshots in action.

Quantum Conundrum was announced at PAX Prime this year coming from Kim Swift and Airtight Games with Square Enix publishing. We’ve seen the game in action before but here’s an official trailer that sets the scene for the game as you figure out what dimension your crazy uncle inventor ended up in. After the break, you’ll see another gameplay demo featuring Kim Swift utilizing all of the dimensions from fluffy to slow-time to reverse-gravity. The design when it comes to some of these puzzles looks intelligent and looks to get more challenging as you progress, be on a lookout for this title in early 2012.

Xbox Live Arcade is filled with all sorts of match-3 style puzzle games and platforming puzzlers, but perhaps it’s been a while since we’ve seen an action puzzler without all the jumping and the falling. Well Misfits Attic’s A Virus Named Tom plans to fill that void, fill it with all sorts of infectious action puzzler goodness. While the game may be a ways off, plenty is known about it and there’s even a gameplay trailer brimming with personality (and viruses). Watch it below the jump, and don’t worry, we guarantee it’s not a security risk.

If you’re too lazy to watch the video or fear the brimming of its hilariousness, we could go at length to describe the game but the developers have said it best:

Imagine trying to solve a simple puzzle. Now imagine people are throwing potatoes at you. So while you’re trying to concentrate, you now have to dodge potatoes (they hurt more than you’d think). Actually it’s more like you’re trying to diffuse a bomb, because there’s a timer that’s counting down to doom-o’clock. Yeah, so it’s basically like you’re a really unpopular bomb squad. But at least you can get your friends to help: by telling you how you’re solving the problem wrong, or kicking the potato-ers in the shin. That’s basically the game. Oh, and there’s also a territory mode you can play against your friends. Make sense?
