TF2.

I feel like I struggle to visually identify my opponents in every other videogame but TF2.

Hyper Light Drifter in my opinion is a perfect synergy of beautiful soundtrack, ambiance design, atmosphere and gorgeous pixel art. I wish I had enough artistic aptitude to pull something like that off.

Dude, you took the words right out of my mouth. HLD is a masterpiece.

I really like the art style of Celeste

For the easiest option: i could reproduce the art from one of my games because i already made it once

House of the Dying Sun

I'm a big fan of cel shading. I like the comic-y style of it.

Maybe Borderlands or JSRF/BRC.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Either Borderlands or Breath of the Wild.

Mortal Kombat with the art style of Wallace and Grommit

(inb4 people mention clayfighters or celebrity death match)

Dishonored, love the art style and art direction in that game.

Outer Worlds. Colourful corporate dystopian. Purpleberry Crunch!

I would choose a game I don't care. Why? Because my art is bad and I don't want to ruin a good game.

Furthermore, if the selection of games was restricted to games released in the last 5 years, what game would you choose? (This is separate from the main question)

Probably Akira Toriyama's art style. RIP, you fucking legend

This is kind of the opposite but I would try to apply the Overlord Manga artstyle to a game, it would be sick.

Reproduce how? Like I can program a knockoff game or if I paint a mural it looks like Jet Grind Radio?

@[email protected] Reproducing by performing a study on the art style and then drawing something original using the style.

In that case I'd be pretty stoked if I could magically create images in the Wakfu style, but in my own tastes.
