The forthcoming game is a nostalgic exploration of a city in summer. Its creative director explains how it helps players to feel they are making the world more beautiful<\/p>\n

How do you make painting fun for those without an artistic bone in their body? Game developers have come up with a few answers \u2013 or at least, they\u2019ve tried. There\u2019s the straightforward approach of something like Mario Paint, <\/em>where players are handed a mouse accessory and creation tools similar to Microsoft Paint. In \u014ckami, a painter\u2019s brush is used as a weapon and a magic wand in a Zelda-like world. In The Unfinished Swan<\/a>, the world (and the story) are gradually revealed by the player\u2019s spattered ink.<\/p>\n

Forthcoming painting game \u00c9t\u00e9 is less about the process of making art on a canvas, and more about making players feel as if they are making the world more beautiful. It lets you make art without any of the friction. \u201cLike lots of games, \u00c9t\u00e9 fulfils a fantasy through role playing, the fantasy of being a painter \u2013 and to do so, we assume your avatar is already a talented painter,\u201d says creative director Lazlo Bonin. \u201cPainting in \u00c9t\u00e9 is not about skill, it\u2019s about creativity and enjoyment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00c9t\u00e9 is out on PC<\/a> on 23 July.<\/p>\n
