in the gameplay footage it shows then being not stick figures but this being a prequel how did they turn in to sticks? it not like they were beaten for money so hard they can't pay for attention of detail.

That's exactly what happened. They ran out of food and so are skinny, or stick-like.

The characters were originally spec'd to be stick figures, just like SA and DYC. However, the decision was made to use fully detailed character animations instead. The team felt that; while the change may have been slightly inconsistent to some; it was well worth it overall.

Attached here you can see the progression in a couple of characters.

Is that a a picture of the stick figure slicing of the hands index finger? Is it like, if all of your fingers get sliced off you lose or something?

Yes, its attacking the cursor, you can see it happen in the trailer as well. As to all the details on how it will work, you'll see when the game comes :)

Some of those detailed figures like the last superman guy doesn't really go along with the details of the peasant. Why didn't they use the second one?

Um....
I think Supermans must be more stylish than peasants? No? :D

Those stick figures in capes are pretty funny. Will the trailer and game be put on Newgrounds?

Actually it matches quite well. The second one wasnt used because that style was scapped in favor of more detailed art.

I think the trailer will be. I dont know about the game; probably not, for now.

Your cursor will be attacked and will shed blood if your damaged too much
