Exactly, except the version I saw didn't have color. So is this fanart or an actual game? Either way that's the creepiest thing I've ever seen.

It's concept art, so yeah, it's an actual game.

Nobody knows who the main is character is, I don't think that actually is concept art, I went on the (I pretty sure) main site and couldn't find it anywhere.

Could be wrong though.
Oh and some pictures on there are also a bugs life, or some just not in either game.

How did I not see this thread before, so keen for this game!
The concept art looks amazing, I really hope the game ends up looking a lot like it. I also hope the game ends up being really scary and slightly disturbing, just like the concept art. Take these beloved characters to a new level.

Subarashii!
this is the weirdest concept for a game i've EVER seen.
then again, everyone thought Kingdom Heart's concept was weird before it came out. Look at the masterpiece that series turned into.
I'm not judging anything until I play the game. I hope this works out well.

Source: http://micechat.com/forums/digital-...teampunk-meets-wdw-lots-information-here.htmlmicechat.com said:Alright, after analyzing everything, conclusion:
THE ENEMY IS THE INKPAINT BLOB.
How do I got to this conclusion? Let me present my ideas:
- First of all, lets analyze THIS picture:
You can notice several things.
1. The black and white characters are repeated. You can see 2 pigs, 2 eagles, 2 minnies...
2. There are construction things around that big bottle which is writed Paint Thinner. Now, first, you can see that there is a red circle around Mickey's head, that means that this is against Mickey, or, lets be clear COLOR CARTOONS.
3. Why only color cartoons? Well, its because of a simple look: every character working on the bottle is black and white. And in the other pictures, the character who got zombified/destroyed/anything else starred in COLOR CARTOONS. Exceptions are Goofy and Henry the Bear, cause Goofy first starred in black and white, but now its an color cartoon. And Henry the Bear is an animatronic at the Country bear Jamboree.
4. The dwarves are dead. They have no eyes. They have been modified, and there are teacups over their shells. Those are the teacups from an attraction in Walt Disney World based in Alice in Wonderland. Conclusion: those are the mad hatter teacups.
5. Soon we can understand one thing. Blob is the villain and he wants to destroy all color cartoons. But Mickey is the main leader of those. So Blob captures color cartoons, transforms them and captures black and white cartoons that are trying to escape on the sea to work on his Paint Thinner in order to destroy Mickey Mouse who is in the castle.
But why are they escaping through the sea? The answer is in this picture. Lets analyze it too:
1. It's Monstro, the whale that attacks Pinocchio in his movie. He is a color cartoon. He got zombified and been modified.
2. He is holding famous Walt Disney World icons. Conclusion: Walt Disney World may be an safe place where refugees can go, or where the color cartoons are hiding.
3. Spaceship Earth is destroyed, but the Earful Tower is not. Well, EPCOT has its own characters (Figment and Nemo), but Hollywood Studios doesn't have attractions with characters, except for Toy Story Mania, which has been excluded since its a Pixar movie and has CGI characters.
4. You can see Splash Mountain in the background.
Black and white cartoons are trying to escape to that place, but there is a Monstro zombified, and as we saw, Blob zombified all color cartoons. Well, the color cartoons may have zombified Monstro, because he is a VILLAIN. Remember, he tries to eat Pinocchio.
So we can conclude some things:
- The scenery for the game will be Walt Disney World and its theme parks.
- The enemy is Inkpaint Blob.
- The story may be like this: Blob wants to destroy Mickey and all color cartoons, and make everything black and white. So he tries to destroy Walt Disney World. He destroys some of it (hence the teacups from Alice in Wonderland ride and Henry the Bear), but Mickey makes the Cinderella Castle go above the ground in order to save himself, while the other cartoons get the rest of WDW, put it on Monstro and run away to the ocean. Blob then gets black and white characters to do the work for him, and he believes that by destroying Mickey, he will be able to destroy all color cartoons. That is why there is a Paint Thinner.
- The color cartoons - they have been zombified or destroyed. Example: The monster that is a mashup of Jafar, Goofy, Crocodile from Peter Pan, Sam the Eagle (from Disneyland's America Sings ride) and more.
- Why the black and white cartoons want to run away? Because Blob makes them live in a horrible city made of paperboard boxes and other stuff. But they try to rebel, hence the grafitti saying BLOB SUX and a Mickey head near it.

He forgot to mention Oswald the rabbit, I think he would be a more important character

Seriously digging to music. It has that hint of Disney flair in it, like some old 1990's Disney movie. I can't wait to see some info of the game soon :D.

I don't know why but the Concept Art and the Big Wallpaper look different somehow, I can't put my finger on it but I think it's cuz I don't notice the scaryness on the Wallpaper and also noting that it doesn't look steampunk-ish too

Well, I'm guessing the posters they put up for the game won't carry heavy steampunk influences. Really, you ask anybody who isn't a gamer what steampunk is, and they'll have no clue! It's a term that's usually limited to the realm of JRPGs. Steampunk is a very, very strange thing for newcomers to the genre, and advertising a Mickey Mouse game to be steampunk may deter some parents who will buy into the brand regardless, to not want their children to have the game.

If I can find that **** castle artwork, there isn't alot of steampunk influence in it as well.
Found it
I doubt parents would go to TVtropes to search up steam punk, and I'm guessing that Ocon knows what Steampunk due to giving a paragraph on it.
