To me, the best thing about DS adventure game Hotel Dusk: Room 215 is its wonderful character animation. And why is that? Well, it all has to do with a little animation technique known as rotoscoping...

(Also, I'm attempting new things with the video exporting and sound quality, so this will look and sound quite different from previous videos. It's a learning process, so I'll try and improve on this for future videos.)
