Burly Men At Sea [official site] is another game from the Leftfield Collection at Rezzed which I want to post excitedly about. It’s a beautifully stylised folktake about fishermen heading off for adventure. It made me think of children’s books and how, when you get one which has been well-designed, the art and the story work together to create the sense of particular events or objects. A simple scene transition used a widening triangular shape to create the sense of exiting a whale’s mouth, for example.
