Set to arrive on September 16, Judero is just something you have to see. An action/ adventure game inspired by the rich folk history of the Scottish Borders but it's really the style and animation that's really something.
As the developers explained it's "made from handcrafted objects and bespoke figurines, animated in the stop-motion tradition". For them they said the art style "invokes something nostalgic; in part comical but perhaps a little bit creepy too" and with the real-life models then rendered into a 3D world, it gives a real unique flavour to it while also giving it some flair like real-time lighting, shaders and post-processing effects while the cut-scenes use traditional stop-motion animation techniques and are much more cinematic.
Together you get something that's just seriously weird and quirky.
