What we're playing
Tommy Washbush, staff artist:
I finally got around to playing the hyper-difficult, side-scrolling sensation Cuphead, and at a mere $20, it's well worth the price. With its hand-drawn 1930s cartoon-style animation and ragtime soundtrack, it might be the most impressively art directed video game ever made. The whimsical feel is a nice contrast to the brutal gameplay, and helps encourage you to hit "retry" once again after your hundredth death.
