Even as far back as the mid-1980s, videogame programmers were already experimenting with radical new graphics styles. Released in 1988, Homedata's relatively obscure arcade fighter Last Apostle Puppet Show, aka Reikai Doshi: Chinese Exorcist (1988) featured claymation puppets as its character sprites, which had been mo-capped and digitized for the game. Five years later, Interplay also used claymation visuals for the fighting game Clayfighter and the platformer Claymates. The site hardcoregaming101 wrote of Last Apostle Puppet Show's innovative aesthetics: "Without a doubt, Last Apostle Puppet Show is the most high-end looking fighting game to be released prior to Street Fighter II."
