Hand-drawn animated video game : Run Hamster Run

[DNethery]

I don't know if anyone already posted about this , but I thought this was interesting.

Seen on CartoonBrew:

No one knows for sure where hand drawn animation is headed - but one outlet seems to be thriving: mobile video games.

Here’s another for the list of intriguing new 2d-cartoon iPhone games: Run Hamster Run (http://www.redpencilentertainment.com/runhamsterrun/concepts/index.htm).

Erin Humiston (http://www.redpencilentertainment.com/) did all the artwork and animation, and produced the game with a handful of people in Orlando, Florida. The animation is all hand-drawn.

It’s now available at the iTunes store. Here’s a sample:
