I love a lot of favorite video game art styles but a lot of the game art styles that I like are rendered in 3D so I have decided to pick a couple of games that are in 2D because the art style that I do is mostly 2D drawing, oddly enough I really love 2D video games because when making a 2D games you really have to put in a lot of work into making the background pop out and catch the players eye I’m going to to talk about 2 games art styles that I love.
The first game that has an art style that I love is a game called Shovel Knight because I love knights so when I saw all of characters in the game overall design resemble some kind of knight another reason why I love the art style is because the way each character is created is that they are just shapes and they look really good it just goes to show you that simple art styles can be really good.
The second game that has a art style that I love is a game called Guacamelee Super Turbo Championship Edition and yes that is the whole name and I love this type of design because it uses the Mexican Day of the Dead as inspiration for the art style and the way all of the characters are drawn are with basic angled shapes and it goes with the art style.
These are 2 of the many 2D games that have art styles that is similar to the art that I draw and I love 2D games that use simple methods to make their characters because it shows me that a lot of people love the simple art style that is really easy on the eyes.
