Reviews
A claymation video game? Sounds really cool! There should be more games with different animation techniques. It shouldn’t be that hard. Don Bluth’s Dragon’s Lair games were hand drawn. I know a woman who made a Flash game using watercolor paintings, which was beautiful. Shigeru Miyamoto developed Paper Mario, but I don’t think actual paper was involved.
What’s left, puppets? A puppet video game would probably be cooler than it sounds. Um… Ooh! Pin screen! Canadians in the 1940s-1950s created a unique animation method of pushing pins through a screen! Why didn’t that catch on?
