The trend in indie game promotions has leaned towards lavish 2D animated trailers, resembling the CG trailers seen in AAA titles. 'Absolum', a new beat-em-up game from Dotemu, showcases a seamless integration of gorgeous hand-drawn animation in both its trailer and actual gameplay. Uniquely, the visuals of both elements are the work of Supamonks, an animation studio based in Paris, which worked closely with Dotemu to craft this distinctive aesthetic. CEO Cyrille Imbert emphasizes the drive to innovate within the beat 'em up genre by utilizing local artistic talent.
