Mighty Cuphead Adventure makes the jump from hand-drawn animation to pixel art

Article excerpt

Cuphead is getting a new spin-off called Mighty Cuphead Adventure that trades the series' signature hand-drawn animation for pixel art. Developer StudioMDHR is simultaneously working on another traditionally animated Cuphead game, so fans needn't worry about the franchise abandoning its visual roots. The pixel-art version represents a stylistic shift for the beloved indie game character, introducing a new aesthetic while the studio maintains its commitment to the hand-drawn style that made the original game distinctive.
