Cel-Shaded

This form of graphic style is used to give the game a cartoon look. Shading and shadows are used in full clolur insted of gradual fading. Bright colours are used to give it a simplistic look, often using manga, anime and comic animation styles as an influnace. Animators tend to use this style when looking for a unique animation style, with a striking look.

The Legend Of Zelda series was re-invented using the cell-shaded graphic style when designing Wind Waker.

The Gamecube game, Viewtiful Joe, is another example of Cell-shaded animation used in video games.
