All the best children’s stories have a vein of gristly darkness running through them. Or so the argument goes, anyway – and it’s obvious from the that developer Zoink agrees. Tim Burton is the obvious comparison point here, specifically his work in animation: like The Nightmare Before Christmas’s Halloween Town, everything is spindly and rickety, with cracked surfaces held together by thick stitches. And while Burton might be the better-known touchstone, we’d argue director Henry Selick is really the one who should be calling EA to discuss royalties.
