I'm not sold on this style, it just seems to difficult to imagine operating a character in. However could you imagine a MMO with a world design similiar to the PS3 title LittleBigPlanet? I really like some of the new games, or indy games utilizing hand painted backgrounds, and other really sharp fun visual styles. I think there’s merit to exploring games with these different styles.

I want to find out though. I mean that I can’t even imagine running around in a world that looks like that does. I want to find out though.

That's why I think it would be amazing to see this in motion, because it literally looks like a 2D image you're looking at when looking at those screens. Not to mention that really odd figure, that almost looks like some deformed bear man. It'd be interesting to see how motion looks and how the grass seems to recede around you as you move, because it's so 2D looking.

I am having problems coming to grips with it. Perhaps my imagination has died. I’ve been looking at that site for the last few days.

First Cryptic studios announces that Champions is going to be cell shaded and now this one which looks almost like it was done in digital chalk.

Why be 'cartoony' and low rez, or 'realistic' and high-rez, there are so many other options. I was going through some old comics getting ready to sell all my old crap, and found one small series.. the name escapes me (Marvels ?) but it was Marvel and about the beginning of mutants and had some old X-Men in it. Anyway it was similar to this, not quite as abstract but the coloring was very much like it. But that's where I first started getting the idea.

It looks like the style of Ico, Wind Waker, and Okami put together with a heavy dose of its own, blotchy style. I gotta see this game in motion.
