Man I thought this board was about the video game.
I'm disappointed.

It's an incredibly strange game.
You die, go to the afterlife and have to fight your way through a group of incredibly powerful souls known as The Brothers with colour itself while their counterparts, The Sisters help you through it all.

The art in this game is unlike anything I've ever seen in another.
The dialogue is crazy and The Brothers are genuinely threatening. Mantis is the first you fight and he really sets a precedent.

This is Mantis.
I already posted a picture of him, but it doesn't do him justice. He is absolutely massive, easily 50 feet tall.

The levels are all very dreamlike. They're filled with colour, enemies and other things.
There are different types of colour and they do different things. It's a very complex game, so I won't go too much in detail.

The art direction in this game is absolutely fantastic. Every single scene looks like a piece of concept art transformed into a playable environment.

The Brothers regularly go into different levels to "preserve" colour.
You see, The Void is dying, it's begun producing colour again for the first time in awhile. The Brothers first believe you to be one of them, but soon realise you're not a Brother at all, but rather what they call the Destructor. You spend colour instead of preserving it. The Brothers really don't like this as it speeds up the death of The Void.

YouTube embed. Click thumbnail to play.
Another thing I forgot to mention is that this game's music just as good as the art. Whatever mood it's trying to convey, it perfects.
Also, that one Brother's name was Mantid, not Mantis. I haven't played it in awhile
At this point I recommend you try the game for yourselves. It's unlike any game you will ever play. It's developed somewhat of a cult following over the years. I'm saddened it's not more known.

I don't want to spoil too much, anon.
Look for the game on torrent sites, or ask around on /v/ for it. It's quite a unique experience.

I played it years ago, gameplay was a little boring, but it has a story that feels like everything means something. Never finished it though.

Gets really tense during the Brother fights, though.
