If they were smart, this could be turned into a good point and click game franchise.

Who's the voice actress? Sort of Ellen Page-ish.

Yeah. Backgrounds are nice. Characters are functional I guess, probably more to do with practicality than vision.
....
Hmm, I wonder if this is going to be an analogy for the afterlife or a coma.
....
Hmm, that robot sounds like Stephen Merchant's character in Portal.
....
Yeah, think I'm going to like this. Thanks.

Ashley Johnson apparently, would be funny if you conflated her Ellen Pageness from her role as Ellie in The Last of Us, as people were saying that character looked a lot like her.

Just at a repair shop for oilfield equipment. The radio is on all the time, and they play the same songs every day. I was sick of every song they play two years ago.

How does it have the same artstyle every cartoon has
This gives an overview of what I assume they're talking about.
"Generic art style", also sometimes called by people "calarts style" is term describing popular art style used in many cartoons lately. This style is characterized by rounded shapes, often "worm like" smile, simple lines and overall friendly look. Calarts style is mainly about heads of characters, because other parts look to vary between the shows. For example height and body shapes.

Okay, yes, that definitely tracks as somewhere that would be appropriate to play Crazy Train in the workplace.l

So, were you just being obtuse with your original question, trying to make a statement like "Well, not every cartoon looks like that!", or were you actually asking for examples of what parts look similar to other cartoons?

I mean, it's pretty obvious that he didn't mean that literally every cartoon has that same art style, but that it's an art style that is used a lot in the recent years.
