What the hell even is this art style anyway? It's like a cute-grotesque fever dream. I find it mesmerizing, in a way appealing but also repulsive at the same time.

>>12166175What else did you expect from games about eldritch spawns duking it out for toonforce galaxy control? Military realism?
>>12166201>toonforce?
>>12166201>eldritch spawns duking it out for toonforce galaxy controllmfao that really hits the nail on the head
Not gonna lie, SNES graphics just haven't aged very well. This is yet another SNES game that just looks off.

>>12166242Shut the fuck up turd, graphically the game is impeccable which is why I asked about art style and not graphics. SNES graphics have aged like fine wine
>>12166175Cartoony pseudo pre-rendered 3D backgrounds with detailed, thick-outlined sprites. Pretty unique stuff, I've always like how it looks.

>>12166175Sakuraicore
>>12166468Yeh I get that and graphically it's top notch but I meant the artistic concept. The types of characters and the way they are drawn, the whole universe within the game even.
>>12166175Idk, it's a colorful 90s Japanese 16-bit game with some 3D prerendered shit. I remember when my mother saw me playing it on an emulator over 20 years ago, she said it was adorable.
>>12166440This. In fact they aged so well that both AAA companies and indie devs try to imitate it, but never truly succeeded.
>>12166175The art style tickles my brain in a certain way. This time period was really the only time games might look like this. I feel the same about Super Mario RPG. Could also just be nostalgia as I was a holdout to upgrading my systems and played a ton of late-era SNES games over an over.
>>12166175>What the hell even is this art style anyway?Fuck Kirby 3 style.
>>12166175>It's like a cute-grotesque fever dreamnigga where do you think the setting takes place
>>12166175They used pre-rendered backgrounds because they were popular at the time due to DKC. Sakurai said that it didn't turn out very well and regrets that decision. Ultra on DS is entirely 2D.
>>12170793ah so thats why the DS version looks soulless
>>12170793I think the backgrounds look great
