      <title>Cuphead - 45,000 Frames of Beautiful Suffering</title>
      <link>https://player.megaphone.fm/NPTNI2278196975</link>
      <description>Host Max breaks down how indie studio MDHR created Cuphead using 45,000 hand-drawn frames inked and watercolored by hand. The brothers mortgaged their homes, extending development 80%, and replicated 1930s rubber-hose animation so authentically that historians mistook it for vintage cartoons. Their gamble paid off: one million copies sold in two weeks, proving artistic craft triumphs over photorealism.
