There are some graphics that look terrible in still, but amazing in motion.

Some amazing in stills, but terrible in motion.

This is atrocious in stills, and even worse in motion.

yeah, this looks like early 2000s Newgrounds. How did they think this was acceptable to release after stuff like Cupheads?


B. Weed - 2019-06-12

Well, at least they didn't try to make it look like the actual Battletoads cartoon.

Getting through this video without scowling in frustration is harder than the hover bikes level on SNES.

I find it amusing that an obvious Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles rip went off and created its own legend. I wonder if the people who worked on the game are surprised by its longevity.


JesusKhan - 2019-06-11

The art style is kind of like the new Toejam and Earl game, but for this one it's like they have about half as many frames of animation as they need for it to look okay.

Yeah I mentioned this above. You can MAYBE get away with graphics that terrible if the animation is absolutely mindblowing.

This is a fucking turd. The most successful kickstarter of all time would be the Battletoads creators offering tiered rewards for flying down and punching them in the face.

Does this mean people are going to start prank calling the Pawn Stars guy again? Cuz I'm here for that


NewHeavenSockman - 2019-06-12

the real treat in this is the half-second flash of the dark queen's new design, i guess so they would delay the internet's freakout about it by about fifteen minutes

i get that titty monster dominatrix is probably untenable design in 2019, but was the only solution to make her unremarkable as possible?


Old_Zircon - 2019-06-12

It didn't work, they found it and they are offended:

Though to be fair, they're right about CalArts.


IrishWhiskey - 2019-06-12

That subreddits response to children's animated character not having big tits is "SOCIETY IS COLLAPSING. CALIFORNIA NEEDS TO GO FALL INTO THE OCEAN AND DIE."

Both Dark Queen designs were generically and boring, just in different directions.


Nominal - 2019-06-12

The art design for everything else is like they tried to be half Stephen Universe and half Ren & Stimpy, ending up at some horrible middle ground.


William Burns - 2019-06-13

The "calarts style" John K revered to was the Disney/WB/Don Bluth style of the 80's and 90's. The original Battletoads was arguably more "calarts" than this. This looks more like the 90's Beetlejuice cartoon.


betamaxed - 2019-06-13

It's pretty funny that all the gaming incels are MAD at 'cal arts style' because a known pedophile told them to dislike it.


MacGyver Style Bomb - 2019-06-13

Well, when you consider how upset they get when a publisher adds more fabric to the clothing of an underage character, it all falls into place.


MacGyver Style Bomb - 2019-06-13

The term "Calarts style" has been so abused and misused by online fuckwits that it might as well mean "art style I don't like".


Old_Zircon - 2019-06-14

I always assumed it meant "thin line animation whose main stylistic feature is being easy/cheap to knock out digitally" with the CalArts association coming from the pipeline from CalArts to the LA commercial animation industry, and Reddit types just parroting it to look smart.


I didn't realize it was a John K thing, that changes everything.


William Burns - 2019-06-14

John K believed that script-driven cartoons were ruining animation. The ironic thing is that most of the shows labeled as "Calarts style" by internet SQW'S are clearly board-driven, and clearly not at all what John K was complaining about.


Cena_mark - 2019-06-13

I can't jack off to the new Dark Queen. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW, why don't people take gamers seriously?


Nikon - 2019-06-15

Those are some terrible design choices.


William Burns - 2019-06-17

I don't even think the designs are that bad, but the animation is very choppy.
