I try to stay as on top of interesting and fun-looking games as I can, but I’m only one man, and I can’t know everything. So when an opportunity slides across my desk to review something I’ve heard basically nothing about, it’s always an exciting venture to be surprised—for better or worse. Elroy and the Aliens is a great game. An old-school point-and-click adventure bolstered by an interesting story and a ton of heart. In a way, it almost feels unbelievable—in this current videogame landscape, you shouldn’t be able to make something like this, let alone have it be half this good. Just more reason to keep an eye on the indie scene. The story begins when the titular Elroy meets with a journalist named Peggy Wolfe to show her his new prototype rocket built for commercial travel. However, during the demonstration, a strange electrical discharge causes the rocket...

Art Director), is sharing a bit of the vision and challenges behind the game's colorful and vibrant cartoony art style. We always wanted the game to feel like you're playing your favorite childhood cartoon or adventure movie. 🎬 We started searching for inspiration in classics from the '80s and '90s, an era very close to us. From a visual perspective, we’ve always been in love with LucasArts games, Hanna-Barbera cartoons, Spielberg movies, Disney classics, and so many other creations that trigger that special magical tingling — the one you got as a kid when you sat down in the living room on a Saturday morning and started watching your favorite cartoon. ✨ Speaking of inspiration, here’s some suuuuper early concept art of Elroy! It's taken from The Art of Elroy and the Aliens, a making-of book that we'll release later this year. Urban got his first inspiration for Elroy's look from Disney's short film Paperman. Read more about it in the excerpt below. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40790167/ccacfb35efa2f1999854cdbf44ef2b8ff47103ec.png Fast forward about 11 years... and here we are today!

Ghost Town Time LapseFeb 29, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHey, friends! It's no secret that we're huge fans of the old-school drawing and animation style from legends like Mr. Chuck Jones, Hanna-Barbera, & Co. They brought the timeless magic of Saturday morning cartoons into our living rooms, making us smile and feel cozy and warm. The vibrant colors, the contrasts, the tiny irregularities of the hand-drawn line and the perfection of it at the same time — what a treat! From the start, when we began creating Elroy about 10 years ago, we made a decision. We want both you and ourselves to experience that same feeling of warmth and coziness we had back in the '80s and '90s watching those marvelous hand-drawn cartoons, through Elroy's art as well. There should be no compromise, no cutting corners. Using modern tools, all of the art in Elroy and the Aliens is carefully drawn by hand, ensuring that all the colors, shadows, and lines are just right, exactly where they're supposed to be. So, how do we do it? Here's a little time-lapse of a desert ghost town named Losantos coming to life. And make sure to turn on the sound, too! ;) Until next time, folks! Team Elroy ----- For more updates, please follow Elroy on X / Twitter and Facebook!When Release?Dec 23, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsHello dear friends! The year is coming to an end and some of you might be wondering where we are with Elroy. Well, we're extremely proud to announce that we are sailing into the holidays with the game feature, story, puzzle and voice-over COMPLETE! Here is a glimpse behind the scenes featuring our amazing actors recording the voices for Elroy and the Aliens. Featured in this video are 4 of our 20+ actors for Elroy's 60+ characters. In order of appearance: Adam Longworth as Wanderbrust, Jay Rincon as Elroy, Dev Joshi as Peggie & Penelope Rawlins as Nikki. Directed by: the great Mark Estdale at the OMUK studios. We'll continue in 2024 with polishing, QA-ing, translating and preparing the game for the release in Q4. Have a wonderful holiday time! :) We wish you all a lot of love, happiness and peace on Earth. Lift Off: How to Build an Interstellar Vessel at HomeMar 16, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsHeyo, folks! With engineers having a knack for finding and building solutions to complex problems, they rely on various tools and tactics to complete the task at hand. This one seems to be plug-and-play, though. :) In this sneak peek, we catch a glimpse of Elroy as he navigates his home, picks up a propulsion module, climbs the stairs to his rooftop and, as engineers do, installs it in his DIY rocket. This video is a short example of how we strive to orchestrate the voice, art and sound of Elroy to make the characters and environments of Elroy and the Aliens as lively as the old-school Saturday morning cartoons we used to love as kids .. and still do as mature and responsible old farts.
