Pampling’s The Morning Ritual
The Morning Ritual by EduEly cleverly positions a morning cup of coffee as a pact with the devil. It’s a metaphor that works its way into every aspect of the design, from the coffee cup as cauldron (complete with a pentagram and candles surrounding it) to the bits of text. One snippet sets the mood as “summoned on a Monday morning,” while another cheekily asks the viewer to “wake the hell up!” My favorite portions, though, are those that interface directly with coffee’s qualities, like referencing the color in “black like my soul” or framing coffee as a deity with “praise the dark lord.” It’s fun stuff, and the smug satisfaction of the goat character helps sell this as a scenario viewers will relate to- he just looks like he’d take advantage of some poor, tired soul and force them into an unfair bargain for a fresh cup.
