Cracker and Chip is an ongoing American indie web animated series created, written and directed by DevSuMo64 and produced by Microwaved Media inspired by Klay World and Dick Figures that follows a story of two walking talking food friends named Cracker And Chip getting a job working as bounty hunters for the local police station after getting an eviction from the landlord for not paying the rent and not having a job for a long time. It is the first animated series by Microwaved Media. The first pilot premiered since March 28, 2023 before it was remastered and uploaded in June 2, 2023 due to the team's response on DevSuMo64 using PicArt as an animation software instead of using what is seen "advanced" like Flipaclip in their opinion.You can watch the series here in YouTube

- Counter-Attack: At the part of "Re-Fried" where Chip and Posin fight each other, Posin punches Chip with his fists, and Chip punches him back and continued fighting until Chip pulled out an unexpected move, instead of punching him back again, he spits at his face before kicking him right in the groin.
- A Dog Named "Dog": Half of the characters are named based on what they are as a character.
- Disproportionate Retribution: The reason why Posin became a villain is because everybody didn’t elect him as mayor of Avocado City three years ago. So in return, he plans to destroy the city and enslave everybody in the city.
- Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Some of the characters are named after their occupation, Bartender and Warden being their names.
- Grenade Spam: Chip has an infinite amount of grenades after learning that weapons appear in his pocket magically.
- Humongous-Headed Hammer: Cracker has a normal metal hammer before it changed its size after losing a single high striker game in Tacoland.
- A Lizard Named "Liz": Cracker and Chip's real name.
- Meaningful Name: Both Cracker and Chip's real names are based off of real food brands, Chip's name being Dory Toh as a reference to a food brand Doritos[3]
and Cracker as a reference to Ritz Crackers[4]
- Mecha-Mooks: Very vulnerable robot army of Kisses Robots made by Posin, can be killed with a single hit.
- Name and Name: Cracker and Chip, that's the title!
- Oh, Crap!: Posin's reaction to Chip's Rocket Jump.
- Pet the Dog: Despite Posin being a main antagonist of the series, he builds robots, but not with an army type of purpose. Instead, he keeps his other robots as if it were his dogs. As shown that kisses robots often make dog-like noises.
- Police Brutality: Cracker and Chip are framed for police brutality.
- Police Are Useless: Police, depicted as donuts, are frequently doing things that are seen stupid or they can’t seem to do anything in their job. A Jail Deputy donut shouts at everybody or even shoot someone for no reason. Another move for police brutality.Police Donut 1: *sighs* Someone really needs to terminate this special reinforcement program.Police Donut 2: Why? I don’t see the issue with it.Police Donut 1: Listen, I get the fact that these people can’t get jobs, but do we really have to resort to this? This is ridiculous!Police Donut 2: …Why are you so negative?
- Rocket Jump: In the part where Cracker and Chip fight off Posin and Posin Bot, Chip attempts to Rocket Jump to a building, using grenades, and also Cracker too.Chip: I saw someone do this in a video game one time! [explodes]
- Reference Overdosed: This series contains a CHUNK of references if you pay attention to the dialogue and the background designs as well. If you recognize all of them, you sure do watch and play media a LOT.
- Smart Jerk and Nice Moron: Cracker is described a dim-witted character and Chip is often seen teasing Cracker a lot for his stupidity. Makes sense for his ignorance, he did not die instantly from holding his breath in space.
- Signature Headgear: Cracker wears a baseball cap and Chip wears a top hat everyday. But this makes sense as Cracker is described as he's good at sports, while Chip wears a top hat. Top hats are often see as ''classy”, so this headgear makes Chip look more mature.
