It's so bloody hard!

I wanted to love Cuphead more than I actually did. The art is glorious, hand drawn 1930s cartoon mischief with a jazzy swagger that honestly belongs in a gallery. But blimey, it is punishing. This is not a game you casually pick up after a long day. It demands your full attention and a few choice words muttered at the telly. I admire it enormously and respect every single pixel, yet I rarely felt the pull to load it back up.

Gorgeous to look at, brutal to live with.
