Yeah, kinda surprised the article makes no mention of it considering this is a straight rip-off of that game's art direction. |

Came to this topic to mention that there's an obscure Nintendo DS game with a suspiciously similar art style that was released a couple of years earlier, but judging by the posts, it's not as obscure as I thought  |

To be fair, the art style in Dark Spire was more influenced by pulp/horror comic books than old RPG manuals, and way cooler in my opinion.

Haha, came to post about Dark Spire, too. Still got my attention, though, ripoff or no.

To be fair, the art style in Dark Spire was more influenced by pulp/horror comic books than old RPG manuals, and way cooler in my opinion. It's certainly helped by the fact that the character/monster designs are looking less amateurish, but also actually use a color or two to make them stand out against the backgrounds. Also, I still think Mugen no Shinzou was a bit an inspiration to The Dark Spire, too. But that might just be more. |
