Cuphead E3 Trailer (XB1, PC)

Art style looks cool. Need to see more of the gameplay though.

That's basically how I felt about a lot of the smaller games during Microsoft's conference though.
 
This style of animation always gave me the creeps, I don't like watching those old cartoons.

For some reason this game terrifies me. Reminds me of a bad acid trip or something.

I don't know what it is, but I've always felt the exact same way. That being said, I'm probably going to end up giving the game a shot anyway.

huh. So I'm not the only one. I got the deep-down heebie-jeebies from this.

edit: ever see that Twilight Zone movie with the kid who could change reality?

I did too, it's art style creeps me the hell out.

I used to watch cartoons like felix the cat when I was very young and that animation was creepy as hell.

That being said, pip boy freaks me out too lol. Fallout 3's retro futuristic, cold war aesthetic gives me chills.

On the same boat, I had nightmares with that style of cartoons as a kid. I hate Peacock in Skullgirls for this.
 
I love and hate the art for this game. I love it because I've never seen anything like it in a game but this old cartoon art always gave me the creeps for some reason.
 
LOVE the style, huge fan of these kooky old animations. I hope they're not just mimicking the visual style but also how generally bonkers they are with the ideas. Def keeping tabs on.
 
Love what little I've seen from this game.
Hope more games use this art style in the future.
 
One of those rare games that I will pick up just to experience the visuals. They really nailed the look.
 
This is a must buy, I love this kind of animation. Which reminds me of the upcoming Fleish & Cherry game, another title in old cartoon style.
 
LOVE this animation style. I had flashbacks to the old Mickey Mania game on SNES.

What a pleasant surprise. : )
 
old ass steamboat willie felix the cat max fleischer superman lookin shit mixed in with gunstar heroes and alien soldier

now a price and a time breh
 
This one definitely caught my eye in that big clump of indie clips. I hadn't heard of it before but that art style is really clever! Like everything down to that really odd bleeding color effect really looks like it's nailing that old cartoon style.
Plus it's got the added effect of being sort of creepy-looking.
 
This is the most beautiful thing i've ever saw (videogame wise that is) ....

Welp, i need to sell a kidney now, between this game, the DR3 DLC and the new season of Killer Instinct i now must own a XB1.

Love that Merrie Melodies-era style of animation.

Nope. Is more in line with the Fleischer's style:

(check the character @ 3:27 doing the same as the plant boss of the video)

More Fleischer madness:

The Fleischer bros. would be so proud of this game (if they were alive, and in good terms between them ....... sigh)
 
This doesn't touch my nostalgia nerves like other games have done before but I'm really impressed by how seemless the animation looks with the gameplay.

This is a very pretty game even though it doesn't push any major graphical techniques.

You know some game easily standout as ones that either Sony, Nintendo or MS could lock down as exclusives and this is easily one of those games.
