My expectations: I haven't the foggiest idea what a Kishoutenketsu, so I don't have much to inform my expectations beyond the image above. What is this aesthetic? Super early Game Boy game running on a GBC? With no disrespect to true pixel artists—its a medium that takes tremendous skill and effort to do well—a lot of retro-style games come from developers who think it will cover up a lack of traditional artistic talent. Rémi Töötätä's creator page, however, features some lovely illustrations, so unless they were commissioned by an outside artist or donated by a friend, the lo-fi choice is deliberate. I'm looking forward to seeing it in action.
