FAQ About The Influence of Art Movements on Video Game Design

Are there art movements that are particularly popular in indie games?
Many indie games draw inspiration from art movements like pixel art, which is reminiscent of early digital art styles, post-impressionism, and surrealism. These movements allow indie developers to experiment with unique visual aesthetics and unconventional storytelling methods. Games like "Hyper Light Drifter" utilize pixel art to create a nostalgic yet modern visual experience, while "Kentucky Route Zero" uses surrealist elements to shape its narrative and visual style.
