Abstract graphics does not mean stylised or cartoonish but,
it means to use bright colours and shapes that do not resemble anything that
you would expect in real life. So objects of enlarged size or a countryside of
yellow skys and purple meadows would be considered abstract as this is out of
the ordinary and makes your brain work to identify the points of interest
within this world. Games such as Limbo use this is a strange way,as it is
classified as an abstract game but does not use bright colours to emphasise
things, but it uses all dark shadowing to blend all things together and to make
it so nothing stands out. This is still considered abstract but it is used in a
strange way. A more easily identifyable way of showing an abstract game would
be with Geometry Wars, This uses flashing lights and a variety of strange
shapes to resemble asteroids. This is a much more understandable way to show
off an abstract graphic style.
