On one hand, I love the aesthetic and have been saying we need more games with cartoon vibes and physics.
On the other, I can’t say I’m digging the monochrome color scheme. The first full color cartoon came only 2 years after Steamboat Willie. Most classic Disney cartoons other than that first one were in color.
I’m still trying to wrap my head around this “viral” marketing campaign(?). Like why is everyone jumping into this bandwagon when Cuphead had literally the same art style (except in color) and came out years ago?
Edit: holy shit I just realized: this is an entire game based on GMod Nextbots. You’re just shooting at animated PNGs that shoot back. Holy fuck.

So like Doom.
Maybe it’s related to the copyrights expiring for the Steamboat Willie cartoons but not newer versions of the characters?
