Cuphead

Cuphead mixes the classic feel of the 30's with platforming brilliantly.

There's no words for how much attention, that put into the 30s animation style, It looks so good and it has that Scratchy feeling like the original film is starting to fade, colorbleed scratches and cigarettes Burns.

And the gameplay is a boss rush, it has the coolest Aesthetics possible, the 30s inspiration cartoon Styles just help so much with making every boss feeling unique, and it has enough gimmicks so never get boring.

And for my money, it's one of the best co-op games ever made, even if it made it a bit harder, you would think co-op would make it easier and it does, but two characters make it so chaotic that I promise you, will get hit more time than expected.

My least favorite part of the game, is the shooter mob stages, because it feels kind of repetitive and it's more about spam as many predictiles, at screams as possible, it is a fine enough pace break, but I didn't get the same satisfaction as in the other levels.

The music and the style keeps it up, all the way, bosses are so fun and unique, there smooth animation that makes it not teddies to be beaten again and again, it is one of the best of these kind of games, I have played and would recommend it.

This game is an awesome retro-adventure, in a very exciting way. Game is 100% "focus on details" high-quality, a true journey to the 30's, The music the animations and the effects will influence your mood in a good way.

It would require above-average skills with similar video-games, most likely a few levels would be a little headache for even an experienced gamer , however some people would like to tag this production as a "rage-game", at some level it appears to be true.

You will need all of your skills to beat the bosses that's for sure.

Cuphead is brilliant, it is the pinnacle of indie gaming. Different aspects make this a master piece. Recently with indie games there have been a fair share of absolutely shocking and poor games. I feel like recently trying to find a good cheap indie game is like searching for a diamond ring in a metric tonne of pig crap. Cuphead is this ring and I'm wearing it proudly.

The first aspect that makes this brilliant is the visuals. The old Disney inspired visuals get me excited. They have that nice old Disney feel and definitely are made by the attention to detail (Cupheads little gloves are adorable). The map you walk around to get to each level is very nice, it may be a little simple to begin with but as you progressive, boy does it look good.

The second aspect I love about it is the sound track, can't really describe it, go listen to it yourself on YouTube. It has a nice classic sounds to it. I wouldn't listen to it on my bus journey but it does add to the atmosphere of the game

Worth a buy, do it immediately, wont regret it!

Cuphead has been a massive long time coming But, finally arrived for XBox One and The PC I'm not going to over sell this game to anyone It is absolutely a amazing accomplishment in where gaming has gone since the days of the seedy arcades and Atari 2600 But, It does have a elephant size negative against it

Graphics Flawless there is nothing and i mean nothing like this that's been out there (Besides the handful of Laserdisc arcade title from the 80's) More games need to be like this it's pure Art in motion The animation is a sight to see Audio: much like the art style is frozen in the 1930's this too is a sight to hear The art style and audio presentation make this game feel old but, at the same time it's also refreshing and new The Story is better then i would've ever guessed Not even going to spoil it while it's nothing life changing it's very slick and works for this time period it's set in The only real negative (The difficulty is over the top brutal) If you have young kids save your money buy Raymen, Yooka-Laylee, or even Ori and The Blind Forest This game will make any kid cry...... or break a expensive controller The game is too "hard" I'm not sure why the developers didn't even add a difficulty option I've played some brutal games growing up but, this is on a whole new level of being hard for the sake of being hard This is going to turn a lot of gamers off and if you plan on going all in (pick up a glass make a swear jar) you'll going to need the money in the jar after you break your controller from anger or just the massive abuse the controller takes) No matter what if and when you finish the game you're controller will be bruised and beaten much like you

If you want a relentless challenge you'll dig this game If you are unsure try and play the demo to get a feel for what's in store for you If the game wasn't so stacked against the player I'd give the game a 10/10 But, it's to hard as a kid i loved Ghost and Goblins and Ghouls and Ghosts (Beat both games) this is harder then Ghost and Goblins in my opinion so it gets a 9/10
