Dex Morgan It was delayed due to the amount of time & effort went into it. Creators said something like "it's better to release a game late, rather than unfinished." That way we only have to deal with a delay not a half-assed game that was rushed (take notes Ubi)
I will not be satisfied until I have a Cuphead plushie, a big mug shaped like his head with his face on it, a big foam helmet of his head I can wear around, and a box set of full length Cuphead cartoons.
The animation and overall presentation is thoroughly excellent. It's like a lost art form being resurrected, or at least recreated with different tools.
You know, I must say that I always found the old Steamboat Willie art style to be strangely unnerving, and very much so. But this game really pulls off both elements of said art style - creepy, frantic movements and faces with fun, comical physics and effects. I haven't played it yet, but it looks extremely fun.
But this game has insane graphics, insane 2D graphics. And this can become beautiful in 4K resolution, after all, classic cartoons made back in 1930 and filmed on analog film reels, can look wonderful and have HD resolution if they're remastered.
I was lucky enough to play some of this and Mighty No. 9 at this year's E3, and they've both been the highlights of my show experience. I love how this type of gameplay is seeing such a strong resurgence!
Even being a small title, this game trailer is one of the most exciting of E3 for me. I love the idea of a 1930's Disney cartoon animation while still having a dark ambience with the deal with the devil. I can't wait to play this game in 2016.
When you fight, Cuphead has white gloves and brown boots. When you are getting your grade, Cuphead has yellow gloves and brown boots. When you're on the map, Cuphead has white gloves and yellow boots.
***** It's still Microsofts, they are cross-platform with PC now. So if you get it on X1, you get it on PC. It's still Microsoft you are supporting whether you purchase on PC or Xbox.
AnastasiaLUVSU So, in your logic, they don't consider PC as a threat, so, they allow Xbox games on there, so that PC can get more players and become a threat?
It can't be original if it's entire shtick is aping a century old well-established art style and mixing it with standard Run & Gun/Shooter mechanics. It looks great, don't get me wrong, but there is nothing here that isn't defined by being derivative. That's the exact opposite of being original.
This game looks awesome. Combining 2d side scrolling and animation that looks like it came from walt disney's happy harmonies cartoons. Cuphead is gonna be a hit.
It makes you wonder why Disney didn't think of doing something like this beforehand. Now I'm wondering if they'll try and do something like Cuphead after it's release
They kind of did this in Kingdom Hearts 2. there was world based off of Steam Boat Willy and the characters were all designed according to that time period
It will be two years four days from now since this trailer was released and we FINALLY have a set date for the release! I'm just so happy this didn't get cancelled!
★Sweet Legacy★ This game looks like something that requires a focused and attentive mind though. I don't know what you're talking about. You want a stoner game, Flower.
I just learned until now it’s 2022 and I realize that the very end of the trailer where they played the piano if you speed it up the 2X speed, it’s a part of the music for clip joint calamity aka Frog boss music
Keppit It'll most likely be on everything eventually.. It's just a timed exclusive like Plants Vs Zombies was and like Rise of the Tomb Raider will be. It was built in Unity so it's very portable. It looks fantastic too!

oh god, this is GORGEOUS!!! They nailed the colors and pacing of those animations.
Yeah, finally a viable excuse for a console game to be running at 24fps.
It's like an old classic animated move you're playing in.
Now if the spooky scary skeleton is a boss in this game I'm definitely buying it.

When a game doesn't need insane graphics or 4K resolution.
I am happy that games like this are still coming out.
In a way these _are_ insane graphics.
But this game has insane graphics, insane 2D graphics.
And this can become beautiful in 4K resolution, after all, classic cartoons made back in 1930 and filmed on analog film reels, can look wonderful and have HD resolution if they're remastered.
Indeed, I meant "photorealistic graphics".
Came for the music stayed for the art/difficulty
That's how they suck you in! And we're totally okay with that since the game's so good! ;)

i hope it will be decently to really hard. that would really make it worth it

That's straight max Fleischer right there
And thus, two years later, a masterpiece was released
Studio MDHR definitely made something phenomenal!
this game runs so smoothly for a 1930s cartoon
That's because Studio MDHR knows what they're doing! :)
Thats a really original and never-seen video game concept!
But I don't know why, but I dind it a bit morbid...
Right? We're super excited for it to come out!
toni andrada Yes thats awesome.... -_-
The concept of a boss rush game is not new. However, the art style is.

When you fight, Cuphead has white gloves and brown boots.

It looks great, don't get me wrong, but there is nothing here that isn't defined by being derivative. That's the exact opposite of being original.
I guess the bosses are pretty original, or all the characters in fact
Sinuev1 oh right, unique is the right word.
The art-style and the game mechanics might not be original, but everything else is original.
Who's writing the score? I love the sound.
Kris Maddigan he's a friend of the game creators who is an independent jazz musician
ladynikkie Sweet thanks.
I did

My dad got me this game for my birthday, and have never regretted playing it!
Early 1930s animation at its best. I love the look of this game!
Mickey Mouse (Steamboat Willie Form) should appear in this game as a Secret Boss
what about Popeye?!
Do, you want a lawsuit? Cause that's how you get a lawsuit.
Calm down bro! just a suggestion.
+Gilliam De Lauw lawsuit or not, its still being a excellent idea
tbh. i like the games originality. we dont really want to see classic disney characters from the 1930s..
I'd love to play this on a crt tv and put on a black and white filter.
The ultimate throwback!
There's not much need for that, the game has those filters.
***** Then thats half the work for me
That's pretty good!
It turned out incredible!

This game looks awesome. Combining 2d side scrolling and animation that looks like it came from walt disney's happy harmonies cartoons. Cuphead is gonna be a hit.
Josh Galvan Don't you mean Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies? Happy Harmonies is MGM..
It makes you wonder why Disney didn't think of doing something like this beforehand. Now I'm wondering if they'll try and do something like Cuphead after it's release
They kind of did this in Kingdom Hearts 2. there was world based off of Steam Boat Willy and the characters were all designed according to that time period
Well, sure, there was that. I was referring to like a whole game made in the style of their old cartoons.
MrKlausbaudelaire That's true,I guess.
There were also side scrolling levels just like this with the same art style in epic Mickey 2
Animation as a whole needs to return to this style.
It will be two years four days from now since this trailer was released and we FINALLY have a set date for the release! I'm just so happy this didn't get cancelled!
Are they using the exact animations and style of the old disney cartoons? because it's really impressive.
Yep
Rubber hose animation
Actually they're trying to imitate more the style of cartoons by Fleischer Studios.
apples1ful they drew all animations by hand which is pretty impressive
Anyone notice the shadow at 0:18?
It was emphasized so i'm sure most people did notice it.
could you say it was... foreshadowing?
+ManSwine boooooooo
I'm pretty sure everyone noticed it
I did
Hey Microsoft and Studio MDHR, how about some Cuphead cartoons?
0:17 look at the shadow! It’s a diffrent ending!!!
Imo, the accurate calculations would be, 1936 (plus 81 years).
XeviousD yub
XeviousD or 1937 plus 80 years
XeviousD You know that game release dates can be delayed, right?
Reminds me of a classic Micky mouse game
It's such an awesome wave of nostalgia! :)
what did he say? supposed to be mid 2017......hopefully
Me too. It reminds me of Mickey's Wild Adventure on the PS1, which in the beginning of the game, you play through a "Steamboat Willy" segment.
*mickey
It's Mega Man
This game looks amazing.
Also incredibly difficult.
Yeah!
I concur.
This is just amazing!
You guys have to give the creators props. THEY HAD TO HAND DRAW EVERY 30 FRAMES OF ANIMATION FOR EACH CHARACTER
I love the old style of animating!
Better than Call Of Duty 1,000,000,000,000 times.
