The devs have actually said that the liquid inside Cuphead and Mugman are their souls. Which makes it really weird when Mugman drinks from his own straw...
Maybe not so weird? The mug that is Mugman's head holds his soul, and he has a mouth on one of the walls of the mug, so technically his soul liquid goes back to his head where it's supposed to be anyway.
Crazy how speedrunners do literally anything to shave off even a few seconds. It's really admirable even if this isn't really "anything" but it's super cool
A few seconds. They do tricks to shave milliseconds off their times. But it is a lot of work. I watched a guy show all 5000+ runs he did of Mario 2. It’s insane to think someone played thousands of hour of a game only to beat it in 10 minutes
Have you ever looked into Army%? It's a super funny category using an exploit that allows you to have multiple Mugmen (Mugmans? Help). It's really fun to watch. I believe they've patched this out so anyone who wants to try it would need to downpatch to the "legacy" version, as seen in the video (sorry console players :c). Edit: I'm hearing that it hasn't been patched out? So. If it hasn't then yay, Army% for the console players! If it has then sadge.
Y'know it makes sense as without the final segment of each boss sequence, you're not technically getting any of their contracts like you would normally in normal difficulty, as you literally have to beat them dead and pry those contracts from their cold hands.
@@Hello-sl3oz well in the sense that they lose their souls, their body is practically dead without it, and yeah they don't die die, just their body doesn't do anything without their soul, leaving it a disheveled shell of their former self, so it's a yes and no for them being dead, but a definitely not at all dead if you don't get their contracts at all, and only are until after you defeat the Devil himself if you did collect them all.
@@CarlytheWolf23 I personally think they are just really beat up since before they get their contracts back after the good ending they are all good and well and happy
@@CarlytheWolf23 You don't take their actual souls. Its a contract to get the rights to the soul. When you beat them you just take their contract and leave them be for the devil to claim their soul down the line.
I thought it was required to beat every boss on regular to progress to the next isle, since simple doesn’t reward you with the soul contracts required to move on.
@@TetraBitGaming wait what? Ik this comment is 2 years old but what? I'm 99.99% sure that if you beat all isle bosses (say II1) on simple (which doesn't grant contracts) and go to the Die House, King Dice will tell you that he won't let you through to II2 until you've collected all the soul contracts. He also tells you the after the first time beating a boss on simple. Also also he tells you in his song The Die House, multiple times that he can't let you pass until you bring him the contracts.
@@TetraBitGaming genuinely please correct me if I'm wrong here. Maybe this was something changed in a later patch after this video had been posted? Sorry to bother you about this I'm not trying to be rude. It's just that I'm confused bc I thought the whole point of simple mode was that it was just practice. The catch is that you can't play the whole game on simple and cheat it because you wouldn't be able to get past just the first isle without the contracts.
I'm guessing somebody in the comments has already told you that you can fire bombs during Djimmi's "totem phase" which will go offscreen and damage Cuppet.
I remember when this game came out on switch, i was so excited that i could play it now. I played the game on simple, and my face dropped when king dice wouldnt let me in, because i needed to beat the game on regular lol. Im better at it nowadays. And yes, i beat the game.
@@hoxiipoxii56 i just got the game, and i just absolutely love the game and the art style, especially the music! And i also watched the show, and i liked it aswell!
you should try getting all s-ranks and p-ranks, it’s really fun to s-rank, basically you fight all the bosses all over again, but on expert (but not get hit, finish under 2:10, use 6 cards and parry 3 times) to p-rank, just beat the run n’ guns without shooting at a single enemy (tip: use smoke dash+super #2 for p-ranks)
@@aeiou901 Thank you! I'm just taking my time with the game and i love it so far. Just really being amazed at the visuals, and i straight up was listening to the Floral Fury boss song and i love it! It's so good it's amazing.
I mean, the devs were aware that it was possible to beat the game in 23 minutes on regular mode, so 20 minutes on simple mode, although still impressive, is not that groundbreaking.
Technically you can’t beat the game on simple mode. You can beat all the bosses but you don’t get the soul. So you can’t get into fight king dice and the devil. I made that mistake myself.
At 2:49 I'm pretty sure he could have used the pink object to get extra height and jump over the acorn maker. (Unless you can't do this in old version)
Yeah, you can. You can also use the knockback from a damage to jump over it or you can clip through it with an EX, all this is doable even on current patch
I was there! He actually read one of my comments! I was so happy! I still haven’t beat Grim without using the glitch. Edit: Just realized I’m on a Switch, meaning I cannot do the glitch. Oof. Editing an edit: I DID IT! After probably 50 tries idk, I beat Grim.
Dang it’s been a while since i’ve seen your videos. i remember one time you responded to my comment years ago and it made my day. Glad to see that you’re still making great content
I got cuphead recently and beat all the bosses (except the last two) on simple and didn’t know you have to beat all the bosses on normal to get the soul contracts and now I have to go back and do all the bosses again
@@TetraBitGaming if on that specific version. I think even more fights in regular difficulty have ALOT of those out of bound hitboxes that you exploit to do insane damage and skip more phases. heck in the devil fight you dont even go to hell and just shoot at the side to damage him with no risk.
Fun fact: If you don't do the weapon swap glitch the bombs will actually take longer to kill the boss than just using normal bullets. (BOMBS do more damage then the normal bullets, but their cooldown is long enough to make it so you will end up dealing more damage by using normal bullets.) (In short: bomb only exists to shoot enemies below you. Specifically wally warbles and the robot dude, as none of the other bosses go below you.)
The drink in Cuphead and Mugman’s head is milk because in the series, The Cuphead Show, Cuphead and Mugman get a cookie, and dip it in each other’s heads.
So I would like to say something here 15:03 cala maria you can actually go to the bottom and shoot 2 rockets which will kill all eels and damage maria idk why people don't do yhis
I had a glitch when I first beat cuphead, when I first beat the devil the flag pole ( the one when you beat a boss) didn’t appear neither the sound too, i left the game to see my progress and it was the same as when I beat king dice, I had to beat the devil again, hope you don’t encounter that glitch, and hope it gets removed too
Fun fact in the dijimmi the great boss fight in the second phase you can kill the pillars but if you kill both of them when you can it does more damage in the third phase
Cuphead pours some sort of alcohol into his head in the trailer. Alcohol boosts your energy so it makes sense for mugman to take a big gulp of it before battle.
@@alexhiind Well, yeah. I want to play the creative parts of the game, not just the easy and boring parts. They got rid of the crying onion, and the living castle, and the 3 headed dragon. They even got rid of the good ending for crying out loud!

I'm guessing the algorithm blessed your trendy content. I remember when you used to do cool videos like Sonic LostBits. Oh well, congratulations and I wish you the best.
I’m pretty sure the spread shot even withought the whole weapon swap glitch does more damage per second then what the speed run uses considering the spread shot speed
I know you did not just call Forest Follies Forest *Frolic* someone hold me back because I’m coming. Be prepared to face Mark (my golf club), Bob (my dark spaces + spaces you can’t see demon), and Elenor (the ghost in my walls who may or may not be a demon)
But how do you get from island to island if you’re doing the run on simple? If I’m remembering correctly, you need to beat the bosses on regular difficulty to get the soul contract.
Imaginative if tetrabitgaming and eazyspeezy collab to get world record speedrun on cuphead two player that would be fastest two player speed run cuphead ever
This shouldn’t be possible because 1:, you don’t get the soul contract by beating a boss on simple mode. And 2:, You can’t fight king dice and the devil on simple because they don’t have a simple mode at all
I thought if you beat a boss on simple in legacy the devil is like "You may have defeated the boss but you didnt get his full soul contract, Beat the boss on regular instead"
Lol I was just thinking earlier today, about making a series of videos specifically regarding modding boss fights in cuphead (or at least as much as the code will allow)
There is some interesting unused content in hello neighbor, and some test maps with scrapped mechanics! So can you pretty please do a lost bits on hello neighbor? PLEEEEEAAAAAAASSSSEEEEEE?? 🥺🙏
What's in Cuphead's head???
First (Why won't the devil just drink Cuphead and Mugman, it's a pretty good idea ngl.)Also glue is in Cuphead's head.
Its a liquid that containing his soul
Water that contains diseases
Cum
a straw
The devs have actually said that the liquid inside Cuphead and Mugman are their souls. Which makes it really weird when Mugman drinks from his own straw...
reminds me of a silly fan-video where they needed to fight the Pink Elephants from that scene in Dumbo...
and one of them poured liquor into his head!
So in the show when they fall and spill milk(?), they are spilling their soul?!
@@cocolocobirb981 Unless the show uses different rules, then yes.
Maybe not so weird? The mug that is Mugman's head holds his soul, and he has a mouth on one of the walls of the mug, so technically his soul liquid goes back to his head where it's supposed to be anyway.
