Studios are using analog techniques to craft their virtual worlds with stop-motion video games.

Talha & Jack Co is running a Kickstarter campaign for its new project, Mashina , centered around a cute robot who has to drill.

The studio is fond of the playful and physical nostalgia of action figures.

Feltopia is a shoot-’em-up, traditionally a fast-paced genre, which clashes with the slower nature of stop-motion.

Creative director Andrea Love photographs and animates objects as individual assets.

Love also has to create the puppets using wire armatures to rig up and then remove the wires in postproduction.
