Cuphead

Cuphead is a tough 2D run-and-gun built mostly around elaborate boss fights, with a few platforming stages mixed in. Success comes from reading attack patterns, parrying at the right moments, and staying calm through fights that can look chaotic at first glance. Its hand-drawn 1930s cartoon style and jazzy soundtrack give it a strong identity, but the real hook is for players who enjoy demanding, learn-by-retrying action.
