Transistor - The Art of Transistor

Suzanne Verras of Cliqist has a new article where she talks about the art of Transistor.

I’ve played Bastion and I enjoyed it, but I had not taken a peek at Transistor yet. I knew I had to, even if it was only for the watercolor painted style that I had also love about Bastion. Even if you don’t like action RPG’s, you should really try Transistor, because the art style, the story and the music are amazing. I’m not going to go into all those things because we already have, I’m just here to show you how incredibly stunning this game looks.

All the scenes are a simple build up out of three layers; the background layer, central layer (where you run, shoot and experience everything), and the foreground layer. When running around the background and foreground layer move with you and add some life to the environment. Sometimes you come across a flock of white doves who fly up if you come near them. Together with the bright colors it makes for a festive eyesight.
