Is that the famed Beast renderer at work? One thing about Unity is that it really fosters originality, because devs don't aim at making it as real a possible, but rather look for artistic solutions. So the games often look more original than their sophisticated counterparts (e.g. Trine), albeit not as beautiful.

I think you got an interesting development going on. The last time I played a comparable game was on my C64 I think. Some kind of Robinson game.
The only thing I'd change is the size of the foreground black blobs. They often seem too flat, instead of giving the picture depth. Instead make two blobs with slightly lighter shading on the one and size them both down a bit. It will still look like intended, but won't be flat looking.
Overall I admire the teams that can put an original artstyle at the base of their production, because they make the best progress and produce the most original looks. Your project is one of those, for sure! Watching!
