It’s been interesting to see indie sequels go big like this. “Preserves the game’s signature art style/hand-drawn quality while allowing us to push animation and VFX.” “Has been a really cool experience working with our character modelers Kevin and Jordan to sculpt these 3D canvases for me to draw on,” said Red Hook co-founder Chris Bourassa.
