Cuphead

This game just looks beautiful in the way it runs. Even if the game itself sucks it's something to look at.

Some new gameplay. There is so much going on! Looks like it will be quite the challenge.

It sure is a beautiful-looking game. Probably the only reason I would ever pick up an Xbox One, which I am absolutely am not going to do for a single new IP. The way the character moves (and controls, I guess, even though I obviously haven't played the game myself), however, looks very stiff and somewhat 'off', but maybe that's just something to do with making the platforming really tight and it will feel much better in practice.

When I first saw the art design for this I must admit I was expecting a more original style of game. Not that there's anything wrong with 2D platform shooters, but I was hoping the bold choice of graphics wouldn't be so incidental to the type of game they ended up in.

Looks to me like a better Mega Man game than Mighty No. 9.

The Rayman influence is very clear, too.
