Games like Returnal follow-up Saros and Marvel’s Wolverine may have been the highlights of Sony’s recent State of Play showcase, but a new game sandwiched in between the show’s biggest announcements was the most eye-catching. Chronoscript: The Endless End made its debut with a stunning trailer showing off its unique art style, and it’s not the first time its developer has pulled off such an incredible hand-drawn style.
The trailer for Chronoscript leaves a lot unsaid, but what was revealed already makes it a game worth keeping an eye on. As the trailer shows, Chronoscript is a 2D action game not entirely unlike the recent Silksong, with combat and platforming challenges galore. But it stands out thanks to its inky art style, which renders the entire game as a series of pen and paper drawings. Chronoscript’s art style is dense with cross-hatched shading, making it feel convincingly like a drawing in a notebook come to life.
