I’m Rodrigo Correa, art director for Sword Legacy: Omen. For this second developer blog post we’re going to talk about why we chose to work with cartoon aesthetics and how we adapted them to match the concept of our project. https://youtu.be/WsNvNNSMQgc Throughout this article, we’ll also share some excerpts from the Sword Legacy: Omen digital art book, available with the Digital Deluxe Edition on Steam.

The result would be something timeless but we knew deep inside that we would also bring our own unique touch to the art style. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F30961408%2F24295e116cd02223421c00b41cfda6%25E2%2580%25A6
