Ripten: The desolate winter season of new releases continues with such a sparse release week that if I were to not include DLC, would only have a total of three measly releases.

The story of a peculiar young girl, in an unusual world with a rather remarkable sleeve. This sentence pretty much sums up the narrative behind Scarygirl. It’s a 2D sidescroller with a twist, literally panning around corners as Scarygirl makes her way through the various levels of this storybook world. While I commend Nathan Jurevicius for his creative art style and character creation, I found this puzzler’s learning curve downright frustrating.

Scarygirl is a project by Australian artist Nathan Jurevicius. Ambitious and haunting, the graphic novel follows the charming but strange orphaned girl raised by a giant octopus. The graphic novel is full of colorful, trippy illustrations – everything is very dreamlike yet whimsical. One of the most beautiful things about Scarygirl is the complete lack of any dialog whatsoever – speech bubbles have images, and thoughts and feelings are expressed through facial expressions and body language (as much as this can be done in a graphic novel). But everything about it just works – which is sadly not true for the video game adaptation recently released on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade.
Scarygirl!!
