Tango, the adventure game

I've been working for some time doing the backgrounds for the upcoming "Tango, the adventure game".
The game is a classic point & click adventure.

The legendary Tim Schafer (known for video games like Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island, Full Throttle, Grim Fandango, Brütal Legend, and many others) has honored us with a short but inspiring sentence about our artistic work on it.

Created by M. Arregui with backgrounds by N. F. Colacitti (New Concept Comics) and characters by G. L. Sanchez (Rotwang Project). More news and details coming soon!

Reviews

Tango, the adventure game (backgrounds) (2015):

"Art looks great!"
- Tim Schafer.

Time Samplers (2012):

“Colacitti is a goddamn powerhouse, handling pencils, inks, letters and colours (...) and doing so with style and skill (...). He is a great, charismatic storyteller.”
- The Lottery Party.

“It's lively and energetic and it jumps off the page in full color. He (...) have me appreciating the style more and more with every panel.”
“I can almost bet that they're not far from taking their properties to the small or big screen, especially if this issue's illustrator is behind the art.”
- Comic Reviews outside the cube.

“The devil is in the details, and that’s where Colacitti shines (...) this is the magic of illustration and Colacitti does it very well.”
- Behind the panels.

“Nicolas Colacitti does a stellar job. Colacitti’s artwork is glorious.”
- Geek Syndicate.

“The art is brilliant, with an excellent use of colours.”
- 3 million years.

“(...) all I can really say is just “wow” (...) Nicolas Colacitti does the pencils, ink, lettering, and colors for this comic (...) one might expect some lackluster results, but every page demonstrates excellent layout, coloring, shading, and line work.”
- Stumptown Trade Review.

"Artwork: 10/10"
- Florida Geek Scene.

Division Shadow (2006):

“(...) the art is the most impressive (...) Colacitti has a good sequential art sense. He tells a story well (...) I was just pleading to see some more Colacitti, because it got brutal.”
- Comics Should be Good.
