While the characterful early screens would lead you to believe every cobblestone in the world was placed for artistic impact,
We Happy Few is an entirely different kind of trip for the artists behind Contrast. “It’s challenging to come up with ways of putting unique, memorable elements in when you’re not sure where they’re going to [be seen],” Clayton tells us. “All the fiddling to make it just sit where it should – it’s a lot of problem-solving. It’s a good thing our programmers are so good! What’s really nice from an art side is that we can get the look and feel of a section that we want and then all the tech people work their butts off to try to match it. I’m lucky that the company here really vibes the art direction a lot, so it’s a priority to get it to look amazing.”
