Cuphead – The Retro-Styled Indie Phenomenon (2017)

Released in 2017 on Xbox One and PC, later expanding to multiple platforms, Cuphead is an indie game developed by Canadian team Studio MDHR. With its art style inspired by 1930s cartoons, especially Fleischer Studios and early Disney animations, it instantly stood out as one of the most visually striking games of its time.

The story follows Cuphead and his brother Mugman, who make a reckless deal with the Devil after losing a bet at a casino. To save their souls, they must battle a bizarre roster of bosses across vibrant, surreal worlds, each encounter more challenging than the last.

Gameplay combines classic run-and-gun mechanics with epic boss fights, demanding precision, quick reflexes, and patience. Renowned for its difficulty, Cuphead also shines thanks to its hand-drawn animation and a stellar jazz and swing soundtrack, perfectly evoking the golden age of cartoons.

Critically acclaimed and beloved by fans, Cuphead went on to win multiple awards and inspired the Netflix animated series The Cuphead Show!. It stands today as a cultural icon – a true celebration of indie creativity, fusing nostalgic artistry with modern challenge.
