    I love the art style and color palette of this game! It's definitely cool to see more Jean Giraud/Moebius inspired art. I've been familiar with some of his work for a long time (like The 5th Element), but didn't actually know who he was until recently. Fun fact: the style of Studio Ghibli's unofficial first film (Nausicaa) was heavily inspired by Moebius. Also, some of the armor designs in Fabular remind me of those in Seven Deadly Sins, which is neat. Thanks for covering this one Splat, will definitely be picking it up!

  • @Wolfsheim23

    I like how you use Moebius' real name instead of the pseudonym everyone knows. By the way, his work is well known here in france and belgium among people with an interest in "bande dessinée". He will always be one of the very best and he didn't only draw sci-fi stuff. He was a tremendously talented artist and that shows too in his realist drawings

    Splattercat could you imagine The Death Star pulling out a planet sized dagger shanking a planet then moves forward just a bit more and there's just some guy on the PA system saying "Biiiiiiitchhh~" right before another arm from The Death Star rips off a chunk of the target planet's most mineral rich sector. I would LAUGH until I had abs.

    This one looks amazing to me, definitely going in the wish list. I'm a skinflint so I might try and wait for a sale once it drops but I may not be able to wait.
    Thanks Splat for making me aware of this title.
    I'm old and to me this reminds me a lot of Asteroids even though it's not really the same at all. I could probably put in a down payment on a house with how many quarters I pumped into arcades when I was younger. I loved arcades and arcade machines so much that I made my career in that field. I'm retired now but at one point I was the director of management for Nickelodeon Arcade Chain it was my first job in upper level management having worked my way up from assistant manager to general manager and eventually Director. A lot of good memories from games of all sorts back then...

    This game looks sooo good, and I mean art and play style. I love the jousting with such inertia, it pushes positioning and planning to another very interesting level.
    I'm also super glad to see art styles borrow/pay tribute to Jean Giraud, I was nodding so hard when you said he didn't get the attention he deserves.

    'tea leaves' is thieves. Cocky slang is almost always simply the last word rhyms with the real word- so look at the context, and try to think of a word that makes sense and in a lot of cases its fairly obvious.

    It's a game where you and enemies move and slide around where you're supposed to time melee attacks to hit targets while avoiding their own swings at you, and they added damage on touch when you come in contact with enemies. These devs have no idea what's good for them.
