News:: 64 Bits create awesome Cuphead-style Dark Souls animation

Cuphead took seemingly forever to come to fruition, but boy, it was worth the wait. A huge part of both its appeal and its lengthy development was the meticulous art style. The beautiful hand-drawn animation, based around the work of vintage cartoonists such as Max Fleischer, afforded the game its distinct look and array of memorable characters.

Redesigning other video games in Cuphead's kooky style is a fun concept, and lends itself well to fan-art and videos. One such video, by YouTube channel 64 Bits, shows what popular Gothic nightmare Dark Souls would look like if it took a merry trip through Studio MDHR.

It's an awesome bit of animation, featuring heroes, bosses and locations as seen in FromSoftware's hard-as-nails RPG. It's a very cool 'toon. The only problem I found is it just left me wanting more videos, featuring other popular franchises, redesigned in this style.

What games do you think could benefit a Cuphead-style spin-off?
