The most anticipated video game of 2016 and 2017 wasn't causing buzz because of its cutting edge 3D graphics or VR rig compatibility- because the buzz was all about the hand drawn animated graphics.
Cuphead was made to look like a classic cartoon from the 1930s, containing a mind-boggling amount of animated sequences that were lovingly drawn frame-by-frame as an homage to cartoon icons like Max Fleischer and Ub Iwerks.
In fact, animation historian Steve Stanchfield traced Cuphead's inspiration back to one particular animated short from 1935- Van Beuren's The Picnic Panic.
