Cuphead

released on Sep 29, 2017

Cuphead is a classic run and gun action game heavily focused on boss battles. Inspired by cartoons of the 1930s, the visuals and audio are painstakingly created with the same techniques of the era, i.e. traditional cel animation (hand drawn & hand inked!), watercolor backgrounds, and original jazz recordings. Play as Cuphead or Mugman (in single player or co-op) as you traverse strange worlds, acquire new weapons, learn powerful super moves, and discover hidden secrets. Cuphead is all action, all the time.

Muito bom, zerei com um amigo

Brutally hard - even straight unfair at times - but incredibly satisfying and the art design is a masterpiece. One of the first games I’ve played on my Switch and I had a very good time

8/10

being the tenacious guy that i am, playing cuphead was already right up my alley. this beautiful game knows what it is, and thus, gives you all the tools necessary to overcome it. while it might not be for everybody, you at least have to admit the game looks very nice, and that was the biggest reason it took so long to release. i admire the hard work and dedication that the developers of this game put in to ensure this game would be fun from any angle you look. hand-drawn graphics, painted backgrounds, orchestrated tunes, this game truly is the whole dang package when it comes to presentation.
though, at times, i find myself not appreciating it as much as a should. it was probably what they were going for, but the story of the game itself doesn't have too much depth. the game's plot feels more like the plot of a singular episode rather than an entire series, which is strange given that all the levels of the game itself feel like their own episodes with unexplained backstories... but, if the game were to add more supplementary content, it probably would've never been released. i can't be too hard on the game for that, its a miracle a game like this exists in the first place. well done!
