Rovio has been teasing their new game, "Amazing Alex" for quite some time in their incredibly popular "Angry Birds" games, but there wasn't ever any information available outside of the name and a single promotional image, until now. Today, Rovio released a teaser trailer and details on what could potentially be their next big hit.

Sticking to what they know best, "Amazing Alex" will be a physics-based puzzle game. Things are a little different this time around though. Launching birds has been replaced with building 'Rube Goldberg machines' to stimulate the protagonist's imagination.

From cleaning his room to battling cardboard robots in his backyard, Alex creates amazing chain reactions to get the job done.

"Amazing Alex" will come prepackaged with 100 levels set in four different environments with 35 different interactive objects to use. If you get bored of those levels or simply think you could do better; you can actually create your own levels and share them with the community. Rovio is also promising regular free updates to the game which shouldn't be doubted with the level of support they've had for all four "Angry Birds" games since their launch.

Details on the release are vague, but you won't have to wait long as it's slated for a July 2012 release. No price has been set, but a $0.99 price point seems most plausible, seeing as that was the cost of each "Angry Birds" title.
