The lights are on
Katamari Damacy is possibly the most Japanese game ever to be fully embraced by North America. I'm surprised I haven't seen an artist re-imagine the game's art style in the one popularized during feudal Japan already.
The King of the Cosmos' concerned look over the Prince's progress is really what sells the piece.

Oh man, this could definitely become a series of works. I hope they consider it and make a pretty unique body of work. I would love to see this idea taken into a 3d instillation format. Nice idea.
I played this game a few times at my uncle's house when I was younger. I had no idea what was going on. Only that things needed to be picked up by the thing rolling the giant ball.
Seeing as how Katamari Forever featured different, optional art styles, this could totally fit.
Now how bout a katamari game for ps4
This is amazing! I really like the style.
the *note cracked me up.
this would be a cool game
Speaking of which I want a new Katamari game.
Touch My Katamari is excellent. I hope they keep the "stretch and squeeze" mechanic in future Katamari games.
I really wanna play a new Katamari game now....
well, this is something. seems like I want to play katamari again. XD
I love it. Well imagined and beautifully drawn.
"Most Japanese"? I hate it when people think Japanese means weird -.-
This is really well done.
That note XD
All games need to have a reboot that takes place in feudal Japan!
THROWING MONEY AT MY SCREEN BUT NOTHING HAPPENS, PLEASE FIX IT!
