Title: Axel & Pixel relation? Post by: ItsPTK on October 15, 2009, 06:02:16 am I had been looking at the new XBLA game, Axel & Pixel, and immediately recognized the Amanita Design art style and many similarities to previous Samorost games. I was wondering what was this games relation to Amanita Design since I didn't initially see the name anywhere, only that it was developed by Silver Wish Games.

It's interesting why they are making a game, that so dissimilar to previous games... And, of course, I'll play it, if there will be a PC version. Title: Re: Axel & Pixel relation?
