7	''Cuphead'' originated as a RunAndGun video game that was created by brothers Chad & Jared Moldenhauer over the course of four years (starting in 2013 and eventually releasing in 2017). Its overall aesthetic is a painstaking homage to the cartoons Creator/MaxAndDaveFleischer made in the 1930s (with the original game being animated frame-by-frame, among other things). After its release, several other projects in other media were released featuring the same cast.

9	The game's plot centers on Cuphead and Mugman, two drinkware-headed brothers who have a penchant for getting themselves into trouble. The pair end up getting the raw end of a DealWithTheDevil and must contend with several other unusual characters (as well as their even more surreal transformations) to get out of it.
