** ''[[Banjo Kazooie]]'' itself is quite prone to this at times, considering the truly titanic amounts of [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|adult humor]] and dark storylines [[Rare]] snuck into their family-friendly game.
* ''[[Mother 3 (Video Game)|Mother 3]]'' is a prime example. For the first 15 minutes, it's averted, but after that it takes a swan dive into the depths. Compared to the art style, the story gets so dark, you would need the light of a thousand suns to be able to see three feet ahead. Though, admittedly, there are comic relief sections, it's still one hell of a contrast.
* Intentionally done in ''[[Yggdra Union]]'', where Kiyuduki Satoko's [[Puni Plush]] art style helps to conceal the dark nature of the game until [[Wham! Episode|the player gets whacked in the face with it]].
* ''[[The Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker (Video Game)|The Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker]]'' introduced a cartoony and very brightly colored art style very different from the ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Video Game)|Ocarina of Time]]'' era's more realistic art. However, it is arguably even darker than ''Ocarina of Time''; central to the plot is {{spoiler|a [[Great Flood]] that reduced the world to a handful of islands that were once mountaintops}}--not to mention the fact that the final battle culminates in {{spoiler|Ganon being stabbed ''[[Impaled With Extreme Prejudice|in the forehead]]''.}}
* ''Raze's Hell'' features mostly cutesy art... since you play as a monster bent on fighting the [[Cute Is Evil|cuddly]] [[Evil Army]] bent on [[What Measure Is a Non-Cute?|destroying ugly creatures]].
* ''[[Bastion]]'' looks like a [[Sugar Apocalypse]] at first, but it eventually becomes clear that the world (or at least the main character's nation) was pretty messed up even before the Calamity.
Line 60:
* ''[[Sonichu]]''. This incredibly-disturbing webcomic has art that looks like it was drawn by an elementary-schooler. Of course, this is because its creator is [[Giftedly Bad]].
* ''[[Kagerou]]'' starts out this way, with extremely bright colors and cartoonish art contrasted against the dark plot and tendency towards gore. Eventually, though, the art [[Art Evolution|evolves]] into a more realistic but still brightly coloured style.
* ''[[Nanas Everyday Life]]'' has very cutesy, somewhat [[Super
* ''[[Purple Pussy]]'' is a super cutesy drawn webcomic for girls... featuring an unending supply of [[Cluster F-Bomb|Cluster F Bombs]] and [[Toilet Humor]] that will burn your eyes out.
* ''[[Wondermark]]'' is a [[Cut and Paste Comic]] made from sophisticated Victorian art. The jokes tend to be either very silly observations on modern neurotics to very silly poop jokes.
