It will be difficult to convey those colors and mood of the comic book through the game. The watercolor drawing of Juanho Guarnido is something special. Let’s see what is with a noir plot. Will Blaxad get at least something except fig in your pocket and bad mood.
You are serious? The https://luckukcasino.co.uk/login/ comic book that takes the honorary place on my book shelf is ready to become a game?! Uuuu bitch, I will analyze every element with the meticulousness of the surgeon.
P.S. I completely and fully support the statements about the too striking difference between the visual style of original comics and games. I think she would have been suitable for the style of The Walking Dead or Wolf Among Us from Telltale.
The first volume was written in 2000, I would even say strange that the game comes out only now, when the hype of anthropomorphic animals has passed. The whole story is very reminiscent of animals for adults. But with the advantage that in Blaxad, animals are not just animals, they reflect the essence of people. Blacksad’s best friend, Jourk Jacker – affection, sneaking and curious. Blaxad himself is such a typical yard cat Zadir, but with honor. Police Commissioner – a German shepherd, honest and straight, appreciates friendship. And there are many such examples in the comic book. When you read and penetrate the characters, involuntarily in your head you can draw them humanly. The idea is like in Maus, only there were nations anthropomorphically, and here the personalities who are hidden behind muzzles, fangs and tails.
I look at the screenshots and I do not see either the signature style of "Pendulo", nor the comic book especially. For me, these heads of top in quest construction. They rarely release, but aptly :) I hope that they will not miss here either. Although three dimensions and soap are caused by some fears.
Most likely with Point & Click, what was the good quest Yesterday. Depends on the engine too. For some reason, Sam & Max comes to mind in such a manner. Take it, pump it, add an attributes of Blaxad and something pleasant will come out.
I looked at the screenshots, and somehow my enthusiasm disappeared. I really liked the drawing in the comic book, it is so noir and grotesque, and then some kind of kingdom hearts plush
Very good. Of course, it would be possible to drive to the graphics, but I will not do it. The main thing is that in principle Blacksad. It is even strange that some TELLTALE did not do this.
Correction. The authors of the comic book are the Spaniards, but the publishing house that printed the comic book is French, and it was published for the first time in France.
agree. It is also interesting what gameplay will be, whether it will be a Paint-end-click Advenchur, an interactive comic book in the style of the Games TV or something with normal gameplay.
If we proceed from such logic, then yes. Although at the same time, the comic book was written in French initially.
In screenshots, the game looks rather brighter than the original (where it was the “dark” noir). Where are the half -enlarged offices, smoke from cigarettes, sewage pairs on the streets? Slightly a little that atmosphere to the game.
Interesting, I hope Pendulo will cope with the task. The schedule certainly lacks some filter, and indeed it seems that the game would be better to look in Cel-SHADING style. He himself has the first part of this comic book, the second one has not yet reached his hands, so with the original source a more or less sign.
I have been related to Pendulo studio since the first Runaway (the beautiful series of quests, I advise everyone to get acquainted who is not yet), a loan of trust in hefty. I’m sure everything will work out as it should.
Yes, but for the country of origin it seemed to me more logical to push away from the nationality of the authors.
There would be more Cell-SHADING in the spirit of Wolf Among us. The comic himself came very much. Runaway trilogy, too, is an excellent developer.
I doubt that this is Point & Click, because the graphics on the 4th screening is very “plush tride”, reminds me of the game about the Simpsons, I forgot how it is there. Advencuras, usually decorated more beautifully. Since the Blacksades was a detective, I think that the gameplay will be written off / similar to the game Murdered Soul Suspect. But by the way, something similar to SAM & MAX.
