Cuphead

This game provides the perfect amount of frustration, and addiction. It produces one of the biggest endorphin releases ever and I would recommend it to anybody who loves old cartoons. As a big fan, this game has been an extraordinary experience, yet I am very bad at it:) Play it and trust me that it has significant value.

I love it.Its challenging while intresting and good

good but hard game the dragon was making me struggle for a bit but finally got past

Honestly, this game might be not for me, cause each boss has sooo much small stuffs to notice.
I hasn't played this game online, coop mode, so I cannot be sure bout the difficulty of each boss when entering coop.

Amazing game. Not an easy one, but the difficulty level is fair. If you are a fan of classic animation, I would highly recommend it

Holy shit, this game is hard, but when you learn it and thrive its so fun. It is very frustrating to learn but once you do its so rewarding, you can finally say youve beaten one of the hardest games of all time

I've never try cuphead before and all in all this game is really hard. Even so , it's really good and challenging.
I actually completed in 6.8 hours playtime somehow. Highly recommend for anyone who love platformer game and willing to test their skills( If only you didn't mind the price it cost ).

Good game providing great amount of challenge and skill needed to beat this game, especially when trying to 100% the game steam achievement-wise. The art style and theme is also great. The only thing I didn't like is how I would die at least 50 times per boss just to learn how they work and it takes so long. But since that's just part of the game, I'm not too bothered. Overall, I enjoyed every moment of the game (that includes moments of rage) and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a challenge in gaming!

Going into this i thought i was gonna have a harder time in 100%'ing it, but turns out its not that bad!
Cool game and very high effort, you devs are awesome!!

Hand-drawn panels digitized for the game....difficult yet fair and rewarding...it's a classic.

Fun game

made me want to bash my head into a brick wall but still

Got this game years ago, played it every now and then with friends for fun. Finally, decided to finish the game and the DLC, and it was a crazy adventure. Beautiful animation, Balanced mechanics, Challenging bosses, I can't praise it enough. The passion put into this game really shows. I highly recommend it.

The gameplay is good and very difficult... but still fair.
But if I am honest: I wanted this game just becausse of the artstyle.

Cuphead is every bit as good as people say it is. Pitch perfect platforming, and gorgeous art. Some of the best ever put into a video game. They nailed the look of these cartoons. The DLC only adds better animations. It's a level of motion that's unreal. Seeing modern fighting game references put into this style is so weird, but it just works. There is a love for all kinds of animation, including animation in other games. I'm so happy this exists. It's the kind of game that seems impossible, and it's a game I'm lucky to enjoy.

Amazing game. the different learning curves that each boss gives makes the game constantly fresh. With that it is a very complicated game and can take quite awhile to learn the different attack patterns of most bosses.

This game has a lot of qualities but I'm sure you don't need to read a review to see them so I will share how I felt playing this game.

For the background, I come from Hollow Knight and souls games. I've over 700 hours on HK and I'm currently running Hitless P5 where I've a 1 hit PB. Not to say that I'm good at video games but I really love learning new stuff and mechanics, trying harder challenges and so on. I also took a 2 years break from this game and gave it a second chance. I will do a lot of comparison with HK because to me, its combat mechanics are probably the best of all time hands down.

Cuphead has been really painful so far, I've done around 80% of the levels and my experience has been quite constant. I will try to explain all the flaws I've seen so far if I can remember all of them on the moment.

First, Cuphead is all about shooting and dodging which brings us to the first flaw. Shooting is too easy. You barely have to aim or be positioned properly to hit the boss which means that your damage output between your first try and your last try will be very similar. This forces the devs to give bosses a massive health bar in order to compensate and forces you, the player, to hold the shooting key for the entire fight. The fights aren't even that long, but they feel 10 times longer. Sometimes you don't have any projectile to dodge, so you're just chilling, shooting the boss, waiting for something to happen eventually.

About the dodging, the screen is insanely hard to read. I'll admit, it might be a skill issue but I doubt I'm the only one who suffers from this. Literally everything on the screen is animated, not a single pixel stays the same color for more than a few milliseconds. Not only that but everything is very detailed, which looks nice, but takes a huge amount to scan, differentiate enemies from background, etc... The one more thing is that there are many side scrolling levels and many background.mp4 that just make it so hard to just see what's going on.

Second worst thing about dodging is the character movements. For example, holding spacebar can make you go higher than pressing it quickly, normal videogame stuff. But in this game for some reason it only affects the last 20% of your jump. So quick press = 80% and by holding you can do the last 20%. Many times you will need to jump over a small projectile but your character will be sent straight to the moon. You have no double jump and you can't jump after a dash. Limiting you heavily in your movements.

Since health points are forever lost when hit and you have no way to get them back, you can quickly arrive to the point where resetting after taking a hit too early becomes optimal. Something you might be used to when you do no hit runs. It's not fun in runs and it's not fun in this game neither. In HK, you can infinitely heal as long as you hit the boss. It is a strong mechanics but it get balanced as the bosses become faster and faster and you get less and less timings to heal.

That's a lot of bad talk on dodging for someone with a touhou pfp, I agree, but in touhou games your hitbox is quite small and your character has a huge freedom of movement. In Cuphead, you control that terrible Mickey from Fantasia.

I haven't talked about Run and Gun levels but I think those are very subjective. I think they're atrocious and I hate them but you might enjoy them. Also I find the score system kinda bad, beating a boss hitless then having a bad score because you didn't freestyle on some projectiles feels like a nerd saying uh acktually every time you beat a boss, cringe.

So, for a game that heavily focuses on boss fights, it really failed to make me enjoy any of them. They feel like a chore. Bosses are annoying, frustrating, irritating even. No fun allowed.
In the end, it's a dodging game with bad platforming mechanics.
But I will finish this game, because I want to see the rest of it and see if I'm missing something.

It's very good looking at it's price. I recommend this to people seeking for a challenge. I also liked the animations and enemies.

Amazing art and controller smashing gameplay

This game is fun until you lose 14 times in a row and you were EXTREMELY close to finishing the boss

This game oozes with passion. Sure, the game may be short and have fairly basic gameplay, but the sheer detail and love put into this game can be seen from a mile away.

bosses are hard but very cool! love the style, game, and show

Couldn’t get past the freaking dragon, but this game is awesome. The art style + music is phenomenal, gameplay is super tight. Didn’t get good enough to beat it, but loved my time with it.

I love this game its mad fun, yes i get upset at it and struggle but i didnt spend money on this game for it to be easy this game has lots of patterns and fights its a lot of fun to play with friends and or ur girlfriend if u have one

awesome game but very hard though, good game play (i cant beat the devil)

the best 2 player game for couples seeking for divorce with lots of fun.

I've played this game and got all achievements, this game is really fun and I highly recommend it! Sure it's pretty hard but that's what makes it fun!!!

I don't know if the devs are going to see this. This game has been out since 2017, 8 years and you still have not patched hildaburgs attack telefragging you on the orange wheel part. It's completely unfair, there is no indicator of where the projectiles are going to spawn. And it is the sole reason it took me 3 hours to beat the fight with an S rank. I find it funny that you usually make all attacks avoidable and fair by adding indicators to them. For for some GOSH FORSAKEN REASON, not this attack. So see to it that you fix it or my negative review stays and my opinion of your development team diminished.

this game is really addicting, But it will take some time to get every boss. 4.5/5 stars.

Great game and dlc is just as good. Worth the sticker price

it's challenging, really fun with a friend :] the good kind of rage

It gives me a very nice classic feel, and the gameplay is great, and the boss fights and stages are very difficult and beautiful, which is what makes it so attractive.

hard but fun. Great looks, really different than the other competitors

I tried to get into this game over the years and gave up multiple times, but I finally gave it a fair chance and played it through the end and I'm glad I did. This one of my all time favorites.

Game is great and the bosses are very well designed and very well characterised. The only bad thing about it is how the attacks are often sort of 'layer-based', meaning each manner of attack i.e 1. horizontal projectile 2. homing projectile 3. earthquake attack; can happen in such a way that damage is seemingly unavoidable at times, which I generally don't consider to begood game design. Basically what I'm referring to is akin to multi-enemy fights in Dark Souls. They are under no obligation to be dodge-able when happening all together. Cuphead sometimes suffers this, but it's sort of a necessary evil of the frantic fun that Cuphead is at the best of times, so I consider it largely unavoidable. The attacks happening without synchronisation to one another is what makes every fight feel slightly different on every attempt. I wouldn't change a thing. Maybe some attacks could be tuned a little better to mitigate some of this, but it's really not a major issue.

The presentation is of course amazing. You haven't gotten this far without realising it. The game is a triumph for sure. Can absolutely recommend if this style of gameplay speaks to you. Get into it. I just beat the DLC and it was a great time as well. For what it does, it does flawlessly. 10/10 in that regard. With my personal inclinations built in, I'd give Cuphead like an 8.5 or 9/10. Definitely, absolutely, positively worth experiencing if this kind of game is your bag. :)

Beautiful game but brutal as hell. The most difficult boss fights that I have ever encountered are in this game, nothing comes close to it, not Elden Ring and not Sekiro. The 1930s cartoon art style is gorgeous, and the jazz soundtrack is incredible. The story is nothing to write home about but that's not why you play cuphead, you play if you want to experience a challenge and a game that will truly test your patience.

this game is awsome it is diffacult but rewarding and very fun .very w

fun and addictive. feel like going back to childhood but this time u are the main protagonist.

The art style is fantastic. I've enjoyed playing this even though I'm quite bad at this genre.

It's a fantastic rubberhose styled Run N Gun & Fighting Game hybrid, and though the difficulty might be jarring, especially for bigenners to the platforming genre, it's really pretty and fun to play!

absolute perfection. after completing everything there is, i still go back, for the infinite replay ability.

might be a rage game but its really satisfying when you defeat the boss you have been stuck on for hours

fun but hard I just don't like run and gun
I recomend.

I already pirated this game, just bought it to honor the developers. question though, Can I play this with a friend on another PC who is not a friend on steam?

The absolute BEST game of all time. It seems impossible at the start, and takes A LOT of getting used to, but once you git gud it is really not that hard. The soundtracks are gold, the combat is gold, the characters are gold, the entire experience is a goldmine. PLAY THIS RIGHT NOW!

Perfect difficulty and an enjoyable challenge. I have spent countless hours on this game, and it's completely worth it. The moments I have spent sitting down and enjoying this game, appreciating the breathtaking graphics, the mechanics, the remarkable audio, and all the effort put into creating this fantastic game, are countless. The 1930s-inspired art style and soundtrack are breathtaking, a significant factor in what makes the game so excellent. I have fully completed Cuphead, and while it took some time, I believe that, depending on your skill level, you could finish it in less time than I did. I would certainly recommend it.

9/10

With its gorgeous 1930’s style cartoon aesthetic, Cuphead is an epic boss rush game. Only downside are the useless platform sections which - fortunately - are not too numerous (although they were not initially planned). Wonderful music from Kristofer Maddigan features nearly three hours of original jazz, big band and ragtime pieces. Very challenging yet fair difficulty, Cuphead is a pure masterpiece !

Quick note : I already own the game on PS4 and completed it (mostly)

So for those who are new here, Cuphead is a real HARD game to play, and I personally would recommend getting a controller that you can connect to your PC/laptop (now I do not know a thing about the Steam Deck so, sorry for y'all T-T)

But other than that, the game is in my opinion, REAL wonderful, really well made, just check some game play on YouTube/Twitch (you will also get to see some streamers raging on it, which makes everything funny)

игра хорошая, но цена обман, заплатил за игру 20$, но в игре не учитываются траты на психолога

People talk about this game like its trying to run a route on cooper dejean, while myles garrett rushes your qb, and tom brady sleeps with your wife. And it's just like moderately difficult.
