Cuphead - starring 30s visuals and 3 hours of jazz

[Agent York]

The minute I saw the mermaid in the 2014 trailer is the minute I knew I would see every type of fetish porn imaginable for this game.
I thought my generation was bad, but Gen Z is must be in a constant cold sweat waiting for the next innocent cartoon to jerk off to. I imagine mass impotency being a endemic problem with this continuance of turning even the most trivial things into niche pornography.

It's a shame really nothing is sacred these days.

All that aside, this is the game I've been waiting for my entire life. I've always really loved rubberhose animation, that era always interested me because it was so experimental, with a lot of raw talent in what was a brand new medium.
Studio MDHR went above and beyond, they really did it by the book, animated on all ones, and imitating that style to a tee. Then they went further and got a real jazz group to do era specific music. This game is the easiest 10/10 review I ever gave.
Projects always turn out better when they are a labor of love, and that's exactly what this is.

You gotta admit cala maria is top waifu. Cute mermaid who turns into crazy medusalike bitch.
Agree with the other part.

They're all shit. None of them even look like Cuphead or Mugman.

A bit late, but eh, first cringe comp on this thread:

I hope one day I can make something that is even one/tenth as beautiful as I think this game looks.

I desperately want to play it but
1. I'm poor
2. my computer sucks because I only bought it for drawing and nothing else.
3. It will kick my ass.

Oh well. Boyfriend wants to play it too so I'll just play with him.

I'd love to design a game myself, though I feel like I'd like to have a staff of competent crew members to work with otherwise.

You could make a preachy game about trannies in Game Maker or some shit and get all the indie game awards.

Behold, "game journalists" are realizing they can't call Cuphead's difficulty a shitlord anymore, so they find a new target!

Namely, complaining about the 30's and asking why Elder Kettle didn't start the game with hours of exposition about how racist the 30's were.

Also, uh, apparently jazz in 30's cartoons was secretly racist?

 

[AnOminous]

So this is a tl;dr gibberish rant about how nearly 100 years ago, someone did something racist, and something done now doesn't have any of that racist stuff, but it's racist because it looks sort of like something that was racist last century.

Fuck these idiots.

It's people like them that ruin the enjoyment of even creating a game this good.

I THINK, and don't quote me on this because my dumbass translator's in the shop, they're not saying Cuphead is racist.

What they're saying is that it ISN'T racist, and that's bad, because those cartoons WERE racist, and it's ignoring the past because Satan doesn't turn right to the camera and go "I may be evil, but racism is bad, and we should be ashamed for using a unique art style and not generic indie game 8-bit because some dead old guy made a wrongthink once."

So basically, they want some form of direct implication that's otherwise not being addressed. That's just ass-backwards dumb to me, wanting to shoehorn history into a game that doesn't require it.

It’s the last, irrelevant gasp of the indie clique.
They’re pissed off that these independent game developers created a delightful and unique-looking game that became a huge hit and that the developers didn’t pander to the pink-haired “indie” faggots.

Edit: I also like the giant straw on Cuphead himself. Reminds me of old Chris-Chan art.

This is Gawker material right here, just put a nonsensical spin on whats popular to get some easy views.

Yes old cartoons were racist, sexist, greedy, murdering, whoring, evil, no-good, devil worshiping, killer-creating, and j-walking, but the at least art was good (most of the time).

While I dont entirely agree with this blog post, I did find it interesting no less:

I mean, I guess they have a point, but this article kinda reeks of cane-shaking "BACK IN MY DAY, GAMES WERE REAL GAMES!" dickwaving.

I know this sounds childish but I think most complaints against this game spring from pure jealousy. Like they could never have the drive to make something like this.
