You know a game is a masterpiece when one of the things you could put against it is "its so beautiful if i take the time to love it i will lose because of how awe inspiring it is"
Can we appreciate how this guy actually uses the bosses real names? Like, barely any TH-camrs ever refer to the bosses, nevermind the mini bosses, by their own names and yet this guy is somehow knows the names of Bon Bon's henchmen, Warner's cat, and all of the casino mini bosses.
Especially since he actually refers to Esther as 'she'. I don't know why, but literally every TH-camr I've seen refers to her as 'this guy' or 'he', when she's literally a cow named Esther with very visible eyelashes (except for when she's a sausage).
You mean he checked the wiki? Also, some of the names weren't available until they were made up for the Cuphead cartoon, so that's not really fair to say.
40:33 I always assumed that Chef Saltbaker *couldn't* access the astral plane, and the reason that he was able to get Mugman's soul (He can also trap Cuphead's or Chalice's depending on who you play) is because the other two would be busy. If Chalice is in battle, she's probably pretty distracted by whatever boss she's fighting, and if Cuphead is the one taking a bite out of the astral cookie then he would be in the astral plane, making him powerless to do much even if he *did* catch Saltbaker stealing his brother's soul (But he probably wouldn't even be watching considering he disappears into the astral plane after becoming a ghost and doesn't stick around for the rest of each fight). So with Cup and Chalice occupied, Chef has every opportunity to knock the soul outta Mugsy and drag it back to his cellar (Souls are obviously physical enough to be touched too, considering that you revive your player two by parrying their soul in co-op mode, and if they weren't physical to at least some degree, Mugman could phase through the bell jar and escape immediately). No body is left behind when the cups are reduced to ghosts, so there wouldn't be any evidence either. Probably the only thing the other two would notice is that Mugman is mysteriously missing, but they could just assume he went off to grab another ingredient on his own. After all, you don't *need* more than one person to beat the bosses. Sure Chef Saltbaker might be liked enough that others would be willing to bring him the ingredients, but no matter how much the rest of the isle inhabitants love him, they're probably not going to answer a request for their soul with a cheerful "Yeah, sure, take it!" He can afford to be honest about all but *one* of the ingredients needed. Nobody's going to just let him take their soul if he asks with a "pretty please with a cherry on top?". But a wondertart without a living soul is just a fruit tart. (This isn't a criticism of your sins btw, I have a bad habit of going on tangents when I'm over-analyzing something and only just realized how much I typed lmao.)
Honestly, the reason I feel why the DLC is so hard to read attacks is because it was made moreso for people who had already beaten the game and is more of an extra challenge. That's why the bosses are harder. It could also be because it focuses on Ms. Chalice who has 4 HP, a double-jump, and a parry-dash.
Technically I hate to say this but I have to correct you. Ms Chalice is for players who thought the main game was difficult. Also yeah the dlc isn't for players who beat the game already. Why do you think you can access it immediately after clearing a mausoleum? The easy access to the dlc can also be so that players can get all dlc weapons and charms early, instead of having to buy all main weapons and charms first In order to buy dlc weapons and charms. Plus the king's gauntlet is an easy way to get coins. You can also get divine relic pretty early. Again, sorry for correcting you
Well, Saltbaker doesn't just nab Mugman. Depending on who you're using or whether you have the astral cookie equipped, he could take any of the trio. Just letting you know there isn't exactly an answer on who he canonically takes.
I’m guessing he canonically takes chalice bc at the end of fighting him when using chalice, when you finish and get to the cutscene where their saving one of them if it’s not Chalice in the jar, she turns back into the ghost
That last sin is well-earned. This game is so gorgeous. When I first played it, my sister was watching me. She was so amazed by everything, while I slowly ran into frustration hell with some of the phases and run-and-gun levels. But when I watched my brother play it, I began hating myself for not noticing so many things. From the details in the back, the fluid movement of each animation and the little charming details about every single boss and enemy. It was fascinating to witness. Damn, this game is so good :3
Atleast i got my brother play GOAThead instead of crapblox or brat stars and that is an awesome thing.Except he became addicted to cuphead and now he forces me to play cuphead every single moment of my life(i love cuphead by playing it in fact playing "anything" too much makes me tedious thats not a special thing for cuphead)
Thing is, The Mortimer Freeze rolling animation, actually makes a bit of sense. He's basically readying himself into the roll by leaning back and preparing to propel himself forward. I'll give you the hopping one though, that looks NOTHING like he's about to get ready to jump.
the way he's got his head pointed is what makes it the most awkward. why would you look up if you're about to roll forward? why would you look down if you're about to jump up?
The final sin about how much of a crime it is that you can’t watch how beautiful this game is while playing it was incredibly sincere, this is one of the most gorgeous games of our time
I like how Cuphead, Mugman and Ms. Chalice are pointing out their roles in the story by the number of fingers they're showing in the thumbnail. Such a nice artistic detail. 4:07 - 4:13 Lol, glad I'm not the only one who noticed that; like, trust me, my guy, I would know, I grew up with Woody Woodpecker.
@D.E.M.O.N.S That still doesn't work, because Chalice isn't the third player... And it can't be the order they were added cause Mugman and Cuphead were added at the same time. Can't be relevance to the story, because Mugman has none, outside of telling Cuphead "no", and then being held captive in the DLC. Relevance to the franchise _maybe_, but I doubt Chalice (who was added on her own) is less known than the default character for a second player that most people didn't have.
@D.E.M.O.N.S Exactly, so why would Mugman be second and Chalice third? It's not a three player game, so it can't be player characters. Both Chalice AND Cuphead would both be 1, by "controller" logic.
That final sin is so insanely true, and it makes me record my fights JUST so I can watch them again because animation is something I love so much. ESPECIALLY when it has this much love and care put into it. As for my favorite animation, its a tough pick but when Chef Saltbaker picks you up and changes between phases 1&2, the animation is so fluid and clean. and the finger snap to summon the shakers is just amazing
I think the way the imprisoned character in Chef Saltbaker’s fight is decided is by who’s in the Astral Plane. If you’re using Mugman to be Ms. Chalice, it’ll be Mugman in there. If you’re using Cuphead to be Ms. Chalice, it’ll be Cuphead in there. If you’re just using Cuphead or Mugman, it’ll be Ms. Chalice in there.
The chef Saltbaker’s fight is way better than the devil, i love the contrast between his harmless and corrupted sides, how he chopped the ingredients you brought to him and use it against you. He didn’t give his bad side right away. I do think that elder Kettle survived from the same fate before, it may explain why he showed no hesitation to help the brothers fighting the devil. It’s just what i think about him.
Fun Fact: Due to the addition to Grim Matchstick fight in expert mode that makes the clouds go the opposite way, Grim, though his attacks are more complicated and harder, is EASIER on expert mode if you use the charge shot.
It gets harder when you are trying to S rank it like I am. Gotta get three parries, use 6 cards (super meter) get a good skill level, not getting hit ONCE AND BEAT THE BOSS QUICKLY.
@@pinksywedarnoc8017 Well, skill level means absolutely nothing. It doesn't matter how you play, you will always get 3 stars on expert (but sometimes the game bugs out and doesn't give full stars).
9:42 the reason you parried the pink balloon and took damage is because Cuphead/Mugman/Chalice is coded in a way that causes him to do a little bounce up whenever they parried . When you parried, you were in the wrong position and got hit by the balloon the moment you parried. This also applies to the pink/white balls in the fight with Rumor Honeybottoms. Also, if the object is coded to despawn when parried, this issue won't occur. I hope this helps 👍👍👍
The Cursed/Divine Relic challenge is a LOT easier if you do the plane fights. The relic doesn’t limit your mini-plane so you don’t have to worry about losing invincibility and since you only have 2 weapons so cycling to a specific weapon isn’t really an issue.
I really like this more genuine Everything wrong with. I like how the skits and jokes are slightly more far between. Whenever one comes up it’s really funny. They’re also less in your face, so you laugh at his commentary and still learn about the game. Chariii5 would be very good at being a teacher. _Ding_
I really like Cuphead, though I've never played it, because it's a game that the designers genuinely wanted to work on. They got holidays and breaks and they were able to make a game that now has a Netflix series. It's very inspirational.
4:51 Assuming King Dice remembered us,he probably just wouldnt let us through as we owed the Devil,but he would let normal civilians pass through.He wouldnt let us through until we got the soul contracts so that makes perfect sense.
This was a nice spin on the usual EWW formula. This felt more like just a personal thoughts in the form of an EWW with plenty of the humour I’ve come to expect from your previous EWWs! Really nice stuff!
@@kiricappuchin Haha, it took me a while way back when too, always reading ‘EWW’ and thinking it was some weird inside joke I didn’t get on Charriii’s thumbnails.
I genuinely love this video, and honestly mirrored a lot of thoughts I had in the game. I played with Chalace the entire time when my friend told you you can get her right at the start, so my playthrough was different. The changes for chalace are so interesting, I knew that KD's card attack had extended hitboxes for Chalace, allowing you to hit above them to parry... But I never noticed that it had an indicator! I also didn't have an issue with knowing to parry the tongue because I specifically noticed that *any* pink can be parried. Every time I tested that I had a dumb smile on my face. Just like "This won't be a parr- Oh my god!"
I adore the fact that you actually use the names of everything despite very little being directly told in the game, I knew a lot of them but still learned some more by watching this
21:01 well you see, the lore is simple, werner was approached by the owners of the house to build them a cat, that can roam freely and also be controlled by werner, he called the katzenwagen to assist him in the battle and he can enter it through the mouth
The fireballs in Grim Matchstick's final phase aren't even meant to function the way they do. They're meant to split into only two directions instead of four, but due to a bug, they split into four every time. So technically, the fight is meant to be ever so slightly easier.
This game is truly something special. It pays tribute to classic rubber hose animation and has some of the best music and visuals I’ve ever seen in a video game period and I’ve played breath of the freaking wild. Every boss is animated beautifully (especially salt baker) and every little detail and effort goes into the fights. I love this game so much and I’m happy you enjoyed this game as well Charii!
2:44 Actually, yeah! Phase 3 represents the four bosses of SF2. Tiger is Sagat, bull is Vega, Snake is Bison and the slot machine itself is Balrog. Pretty cool stuff
Correction: Ribby & Croaks wearing boxing gloves and the slot machine references Balrog and his gambling problem the snakes represent Vega because of the snake tattoo on his body the tigers references Sagat and his Tiger Shot and Tiger Uppercut moves and M.Bison is represented by the bulls
37:10 while it could catch you off, the animation for the roll attack does lead me to believe he’s gearing up for a roll. And while the air attack could be misleading, it looks like he’s planning to *bounce.* But I totally get how you could see them as the opposite attacks.
when he mentioned that some of matchsticks fireballs have weird frames it reminded me of a fact I heard about how originally some fireballs were designed to be shot straight instead of zig-zag and it's possible the change is why the frames are awkward also fun fact his flame bubbles in the final phase are actually glitched as they aren't actually supposed to split in 4 directions and were actually supposed split into up down or left to right but due bad coding both happen at once and I guess they were satisfied with how it turned out cause it wasn't fixed even after updates.
For Mortimer Freeze’s animations I think it’s just you who got so tripped up because it all makes perfect sense to me. Rolling across the ground starts with him pulling back so he can quickly pull himself forward to have more speed. Jumping has him prepare to throw himself against the ground to then bounce up over you to the other side
This game certainly made a name for itself for what is basically Metal Slug with 1930s aesthetic. 2:40 I never realized that! That’s very clever, Studio MDHR.
In addition both Ribby and Ryu share the same first letter of their names. Meanwhile, Ken and Croaks share the same sounding first letter of their names.
Mortimer freeze's attack that you are having trouble with does make sense. Imagine trying to slingshot your body forward with your arms. Now image your as bouncy as he is. If you throw yourself at the ground, you will bounce. All you can really do is fling yourself forward like that. You dont throw a bowling ball down to bowl, you throw if forward by swinging your hand back and then forward to release it.
@@jackieosborne4298 I get isle 2 and especially isle 3 but if you can’t get past isle one 2d games aren’t for you and probably games that require skill in general
Once I got to Dr Khals robot I genuinely didn’t think I would beat the game but somehow ended up with a B+. Point is that if you are really patient and kinda plan out how to deal with every boss you will eventually get through the whole game
Cuphead is such a Masterpiece and one of the most well known Indie Games ever made! It's Challenge is very unique for everyone experiencing this game. All the Bosses/ Levels are super creative and fun. And the Rubber Hose Style Animation is just mind blowing (Despite the fact it's like the hardest part when the Animation are taking your eyes away)! ❤️
28:34 I just realized a cool detail about that phase: the cards King Dice sends out have clubs and hearts, the cards in Cuphead's EX meter got diamonds, and Mugman's meter has spades.😉♣♥♦♠
34:17 fun fact about this: if your able to beat the pawns and the knight first try, you get access to the bishop without needing to find another ladder, and this applies to the rest of the kings bosses. If you do it first try, you can beat all of the kings bosses (minus the gauntlet) with only one ladder Edit: by first try, I mean without dying
so basically skill issue. still I get why its designed that way, if its too differently difficult they'll instead push you to go back to the base gameplay instead. if you got gud you can keep going.
Another Sin: During Captain Brineybeard’s fight, in the final phase, I have a problem with the laser, too, but not for the same reason. The barrel that charges downwards at you from the beginning of the fight is STILL there, and is the exact same. When you realize that you have to crouch, in order to avoid the laser, you can’t move while you’re crouching, The barrel is also indestructible, so sometimes they can fall, while your crouching.
Maybe the Snow guy's Anticipation Animations worked like this; 1. He had to Lunge to Start Rolling. 2. He had to Bounce off the Ground for his Jump Attack.
It's always interesting to see what people think of the bosses in this game, because opinions of certain bosses vary wildly, and that's just down to someone's certain shots and charms. For example, I almost always stuck with the Chaser and the Spread, the former being used when I'm overwhelmed by attack, and the latter for when I can get an uninterrupted hit on the boss (Although in the DLC I did trade the chaser for the crackshot). I also usually try to get through the first phase of a fight without taking any damage, to the point where I almost always just restarted the fight after I took a hit. The boss I struggled with the most were probably Djimmi the Great, Grim Matchstick, Rumor HoneyBottoms, and, Dr. Kahl's Robot. Most of the other bosses we're either pretty easy such as Werner Werman or Sally Stageplay, or pretty difficult, but a lot of fun, like Cala Maria and both final bosses.
That last statement sums up my entire feeling on this game. I remember when it was in development, described as a passion project with an immensely long development cycle by a small indie studio that loved old hand-drawn animation, and then when it came out, I found myself thinking... They had the entire field of game genres to go with, and they went with a bullet hell of all things, the one genre that WOULDN'T let players appreciate the animation!
37:41 That's also the reason why they put an extra option to either keep your normal directional controls while rotated or to have vertical motions move you sideways in that phase. And that's ONLY for this specific fight and that specific phase!😵💫
Your reaction to Grim Matchstick is pretty similar to mine. I was loving this game when it came out, but he was the first and really only boss that actually pissed me off. The trick is to use lobber on the last phase because it can take him down so quickly.
The funny thing is, Mangosteen being an easy boss in the middle of a gauntlet is ITSELF a reference to the Melonbread boss from Gunstar heroes (which the entire dice palace thing is a homage to that stage in Gunstar Heroes) who was essentially a 'two eyes and big teeth'. If you got lucky you'd end up with Melonbread as one of the bosses you had to fight who was piss easy and essentially a 'free win'.
4:46 ik this is just a joke and all but the reason why he leet elder kettle through the die house is because he had nothing to do with the devil while king dice will stop cuphead and mugman cause they need to get the contracts, pretty sure you canput the peices together, but all that aside love the video, and 50 MINUTES OF MY FAVORITE VIDEO GAME, YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
5:06 The reason Elder Kettle comes to find Cuphead and Mugman in this cutscene is to let them know to make the right choice when they reach The Devil at the end of the game.
This was a pretty good video. It's interesting to hear someone else's experience with the game be so thoroughly explained when I've been playing it for so long. I don't agree with a lot of things, but like you said, everyone's experience with the game is way different.
Okay, I commented on this in the Sonic Origins EWW, but I'm gonna say it again, I cannot stress enough how nice it is to hear you say the actual names of every minor enemy, miniboss and boss. I don't know why it matters to me so much, but it makes it feel more like you researched everything possible just to give accurate names, instead of being like every other TH-cam game discussion channel who'll just call them some "hilarious" joke name or act like it's the most outlandish thing they've ever seen. Major, MAJOR respect for just how much effort you put into these videos!
42:23 Actually the game does tell you, the 3 people on the podium (1st place, 2nd place, and 3rd place) Say things like “I’m *downright* awsome” hinting at which ghosts to interact
A Missed sin: After leaving the 1st die house, Elder Kettle doesn't even tell us what that way out even IS. In fact I don't think he even shows up again until the ending cutscene, We just refuse to give the devil the contracts and beat him to a pulp. The way it's set up sounds like we need a special trick or item to even stand a chance against the devil, But no, We just beat the snot out of him like everyone else.
20:16 No there is actually an explanation about why Werner was in the war: In the military, they train rats to sniff out land mines and dig them out. This is a common thing done in the army, and it would make sense that Werner would have won the war. Also, Werner isn't a colossal ass rat, and Grim isn't a gecko with wings (ngl, i actually burst out laughing when you said that the first time i saw this video). It's just that they can't make the bosses look really tiny, otherwise it would be impossible. The same can be said for Baroness Von Bon Bon's minions, and Rumour Honeybottoms, alongside the police bee and worker bees. Another fun fact is that Elder Kettle was also in World War I, so there is a chance that Elder Kettle and Werner know each other. Edit: I have the Nikocado PFP because I used to be a HUGE fan of him (before he was obese) In fact, my username was NikocadoFAN DONT JUDGE ME
Hi Charriii, I really enjoyed this kind of EWW. You give entertaining, but insightful commentary on Cuphead's gameplay and design - in fact, it was so enjoyable that I wouldn't mind if you did this new type of EWW more often. The style fits you!
5:01 The reason is because the deal with the devil is to join him and give him the souls of all the bosses that you beat, by not agreeing you have to fight the devil but the bosses keep their souls and you dont join the devil.
46:35 Nice sticker star throwback! Also, my favorite boss is chef saltbaker Also also, favorite animation is The Devil's skeleton climbing out of his skin. Also also also, the last one makes me even more confused on how this game is E-10+
7:28 tip for this phase: stay at the very top of the screen the whole time and switch to the mini bombs. It's much easier to avoid the mummies and eyeballs, and you are dealing lots of damage this way.
Even though I haven't played this game yet, the animation in this game is just so beautiful to look at it. Pretty much the entire game. And yet, I got a feeling it'll probably take me a while to actually finish because I know for sure I'm gonna get distracted just watching everything. Also, 50 minute banger of a video. Nice
Fun fact during the sarcophagus level if you have the bombs, you can just stay on the top of the screen and fire the bombs you will almost never get hit by the eyeballs and the bombs are capable of one shoting the mummies that are able to hit you
42:23 there is actually clues on inkwell isle 4 that tell you the combination, just talk to the 3 people on the pedestals next to the glumstone bossfight, and follow each buzzword (up, down, left, or right) and follow it in number order of each contestant
While you are right, that wasn't what he was talking about, he was mentioning how the Angel and Demon secret boss and the Mausoleums can only be played once but if you do the button combination (which I think is holding L & R) you can replay them again.
Correction on 19:06: the endcard rewards a point for every parry that could damage you. You are able to parry the same object three times if said object can damage you if you fail to parry at the right time. Example: parrying the creepy pink balloons, parrying the giant peppermint during Baroness Von Bon Bon third stage, and Captain Briney Beard’s Ship laser-breath. That’s why parryable objects such as Phantom Express tail or King Dice’s die don’t count
King dice cards are also a parry-able object that you can use to rack up parry points though by the time you get to that point you probably already have enough
40:23 what actually happened is that, because you used mugman as player 1, while also having the cookie equipped, that meant that saltbaker had kidnapped mugman. now if you had chosen to be CUPHEAD instead while still having the cookie equipped, then yeah saltbaker would've kidnapped cuphead instead of mugman. ms chalice is kidnapped if you choose to not have the cookie equipped regardless of who you choose to be player 1 in short, if you have the cookie equipped, then chef saltbaker kidnaps whoever it is that equipped that cookie
This is actually a really cool detail! Since I had Mugman on the whole time, I would never have noticed this and thought it was just part of the regular game!
24:09 just for anyone wondering (atleast every time I’ve done dr khals robot) the bombs have a pretty predictable pattern, they switch sides every time left to right to left to right etc, you can also make them run into eachother which causes them to blow up, just a tip and sorry for rambling
I was not expecting Cuphead of all things to be an "Everything wrong with..." but here we are. Regardless, This is amazing and keep up the good work and amazing content I can always enjoy.
I really like how there are actually genuine critiques of the game in here instead of just being jokes especially for a game that’s pretty universally reviewed positively, so to get some genuine and real opinions on issues the game has which I can very much attest to from my own time playing the game
48:46 They even went so far that they first drew all the character animations on paper (just like in the old times) and then scanned the frames to a computer for coloring. Interesting that they wanted to take this extra step instead of just animating everything digitally, which was done with The Cuphead Show on Netflix.😉✏
Member Squad reporting in here! I miss all the memes of Cuphead and him asking you: *”What’s the matter little fella? Bad at Video Games?”* I also love how some of the bosses are based off other characters in games, Grim MatchStick is clearly the Megaman 2 Mecha Dragon, everyone hates that boss lol.
With the snowman's roll attack, what's going on is, when he wants to roll, he tilts back and pushes himself forward like a wheel. When he jumps, he slams himself into the ground to bounce.
12:50 my tatic for this part of the fight was to be on top of the bomb at like a distance because none of the spikes from it go directly up and then when I get the chance I spray em with spread and that gets the job done
I enjoyed the disclaimer at the front since I was horrible at Root Pack my first attempt and Dr. Kahl was easier for me which end up pissing off my friends since they would struggle with it but I would breeze through it
24:47 Fun Fact: Archie once had a Sonic/Megaman crossover comic, and Eggman and Wily actually created a new ship that they co-piloted, which is called the Wily Egg. Don't know if you knew that while writing that segment, but good on you if you did!
For your point about the snowman's rolling attack I thought each animation made perfect sense. For the forward roll he is preparing to launch forward using that speed to roll. For the jump he is preparing to bounce off the ground and launch into the air. I don't really see the problem with those animations.
My favorite animations had to be Esther Winchester's first transition to her second phase. It looks so satisfying to look at EVERY time I see it. And right underneath that would be the entirety of Mortimer Freeze's second phase. The Snow Golem's movements look so smooth!
I love how he complains about multiple things about each boss but only gives them 1 sin. But gave Beppi 2 because of this "horse", Werner because of his German inspiration and Katzewagen being his own machine (which fun fact, he's not the only one who gets eaten by his own machine, but the second boss that does only does so in a secret phase, which are the Yankee Yippers), Rook because of how morbid his fight is when you really think about it, and Wally being cannibalized so the creator of the game had to explain he didn't actually die when he was one of the few bosses that didn't show up in the good ending
Fun fact: Fitting with King Dice being a reference to that level, Mangosteen is a reference to Melon Bread, a boss in the Gunstar Heroes level Black's Dice Maze. Infamously easy, like a joke boss.

I always assumed that Chef Saltbaker *couldn't* access the astral plane, and the reason that he was able to get Mugman's soul (He can also trap Cuphead's or Chalice's depending on who you play) is because the other two would be busy. If Chalice is in battle, she's probably pretty distracted by whatever boss she's fighting, and if Cuphead is the one taking a bite out of the astral cookie then he would be in the astral plane, making him powerless to do much even if he *did* catch Saltbaker stealing his brother's soul (But he probably wouldn't even be watching considering he disappears into the astral plane after becoming a ghost and doesn't stick around for the rest of each fight). So with Cup and Chalice occupied, Chef has every opportunity to knock the soul outta Mugsy and drag it back to his cellar (Souls are obviously physical enough to be touched too, considering that you revive your player two by parrying their soul in co-op mode, and if they weren't physical to at least some degree, Mugman could phase through the bell jar and escape immediately). No body is left behind when the cups are reduced to ghosts, so there wouldn't be any evidence either. Probably the only thing the other two would notice is that Mugman is mysteriously missing, but they could just assume he went off to grab another ingredient on his own. After all, you don't *need* more than one person to beat the bosses. Sure Chef Saltbaker might be liked enough that others would be willing to bring him the ingredients, but no matter how much the rest of the isle inhabitants love him, they're probably not going to answer a request for their soul with a cheerful "Yeah, sure, take it!" He can afford to be honest about all but *one* of the ingredients needed. Nobody's going to just let him take their soul if he asks with a "pretty please with a cherry on top?". But a wondertart without a living soul is just a fruit tart.
(This isn't a criticism of your sins btw, I have a bad habit of going on tangents when I'm over-analyzing something and only just realized how much I typed lmao.)
Wow
Honestly, the reason I feel why the DLC is so hard to read attacks is because it was made moreso for people who had already beaten the game and is more of an extra challenge. That's why the bosses are harder. It could also be because it focuses on Ms. Chalice who has 4 HP, a double-jump, and a parry-dash.
What’s worse is that feeling with that you get when you lose to a boss knowing that you already beat the entire game
@@axelvalenzuela3022 thanks
Don’t forget a invincibility roll!
Technically I hate to say this but I have to correct you. Ms Chalice is for players who thought the main game was difficult. Also yeah the dlc isn't for players who beat the game already. Why do you think you can access it immediately after clearing a mausoleum? The easy access to the dlc can also be so that players can get all dlc weapons and charms early, instead of having to buy all main weapons and charms first In order to buy dlc weapons and charms. Plus the king's gauntlet is an easy way to get coins. You can also get divine relic pretty early. Again, sorry for correcting you

Well, Saltbaker doesn't just nab Mugman. Depending on who you're using or whether you have the astral cookie equipped, he could take any of the trio. Just letting you know there isn't exactly an answer on who he canonically takes.
I’m guessing he canonically takes chalice bc at the end of fighting him when using chalice, when you finish and get to the cutscene where their saving one of them if it’s not Chalice in the jar, she turns back into the ghost
@@emberystudios8406 If he takes Chalice, whom he promised he would help with the Wondertart, that makes him an even bigger fraud.
That last sin is well-earned. This game is so gorgeous. When I first played it, my sister was watching me. She was so amazed by everything, while I slowly ran into frustration hell with some of the phases and run-and-gun levels.
But when I watched my brother play it, I began hating myself for not noticing so many things. From the details in the back, the fluid movement of each animation and the little charming details about every single boss and enemy. It was fascinating to witness.
Damn, this game is so good :3
At least we got a show out of this game
He lost my respect after he said the bottle caps are hard to read THEY take like 4 or 5 seconds before they shoot out
Atleast i got my brother play GOAThead instead of crapblox or brat stars and that is an awesome thing.Except he became addicted to cuphead and now he forces me to play cuphead every single moment of my life(i love cuphead by playing it in fact playing "anything" too much makes me tedious thats not a special thing for cuphead)
Thing is, The Mortimer Freeze rolling animation, actually makes a bit of sense. He's basically readying himself into the roll by leaning back and preparing to propel himself forward. I'll give you the hopping one though, that looks NOTHING like he's about to get ready to jump.
Something tells me the developers wanted to troll, or that was a complete and total accident
@@dexterdogthelovey1052 On the second animation, I can fully believe the second idea.
I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME!
He’s bouncing himself off of the ground
the way he's got his head pointed is what makes it the most awkward. why would you look up if you're about to roll forward? why would you look down if you're about to jump up?
The bosses are beautiful and the animation is beautiful. This game is beautiful in short.
and its all hand drawn
Agree
Did you forget about the music?
@@The_Everything_man I totally did lol.
It’s a one of a kind Videogame
The final sin about how much of a crime it is that you can’t watch how beautiful this game is while playing it was incredibly sincere, this is one of the most gorgeous games of our time
I like how Cuphead, Mugman and Ms. Chalice are pointing out their roles in the story by the number of fingers they're showing in the thumbnail. Such a nice artistic detail.
4:07 - 4:13 Lol, glad I'm not the only one who noticed that; like, trust me, my guy, I would know, I grew up with Woody Woodpecker.
Finally, I'm not the only one who's seen that
I don't get it.
@D.E.M.O.N.S But those aren't roles in a story, nor does that work for chalice. That was my first assumption too, but I couldn't figure it out.
@D.E.M.O.N.S That still doesn't work, because Chalice isn't the third player... And it can't be the order they were added cause Mugman and Cuphead were added at the same time. Can't be relevance to the story, because Mugman has none, outside of telling Cuphead "no", and then being held captive in the DLC. Relevance to the franchise _maybe_, but I doubt Chalice (who was added on her own) is less known than the default character for a second player that most people didn't have.
@D.E.M.O.N.S Exactly, so why would Mugman be second and Chalice third? It's not a three player game, so it can't be player characters. Both Chalice AND Cuphead would both be 1, by "controller" logic.
That final sin is so insanely true, and it makes me record my fights JUST so I can watch them again because animation is something I love so much. ESPECIALLY when it has this much love and care put into it. As for my favorite animation, its a tough pick but when Chef Saltbaker picks you up and changes between phases 1&2, the animation is so fluid and clean. and the finger snap to summon the shakers is just amazing
I think the way the imprisoned character in Chef Saltbaker’s fight is decided is by who’s in the Astral Plane.
If you’re using Mugman to be Ms. Chalice, it’ll be Mugman in there.
If you’re using Cuphead to be Ms. Chalice, it’ll be Cuphead in there.
If you’re just using Cuphead or Mugman, it’ll be Ms. Chalice in there.
What happens in two-player? Say I’m Chalice, transformed from Cuphead, and my friend’s playing Mugman.
@@aelechdeepestflame4347 Then, Cuphead gets taken, as he's in the astral plane.
@@imalfieandiminurbasement69 Huh. Makes sense. Thanks for explaining!
@@aelechdeepestflame4347 No problem!
yup, whatever character is a ghost is taken
The chef Saltbaker’s fight is way better than the devil,
i love the contrast between his harmless and corrupted sides, how he chopped the ingredients you brought to him and use it against you.
He didn’t give his bad side right away.
I do think that elder Kettle survived from the same fate before, it may explain why he showed no hesitation to help the brothers fighting the devil.
It’s just what i think about him.
Fun Fact: Due to the addition to Grim Matchstick fight in expert mode that makes the clouds go the opposite way, Grim, though his attacks are more complicated and harder, is EASIER on expert mode if you use the charge shot.
It gets harder when you are trying to S rank it like I am. Gotta get three parries, use 6 cards (super meter) get a good skill level, not getting hit ONCE AND BEAT THE BOSS QUICKLY.
Its also super easy with the lobber as its trajectory is perfect for hitting grim and avoiding the fire balls that sharpenel if you hit them
@@maverickdarkrath4780 That works too. Basically anything to get the fight over with
@@pinksywedarnoc8017 Well, skill level means absolutely nothing. It doesn't matter how you play, you will always get 3 stars on expert (but sometimes the game bugs out and doesn't give full stars).
@@pinksywedarnoc8017 I don’t think you don’t need to beat the boss quickly for S rank now
9:42 the reason you parried the pink balloon and took damage is because Cuphead/Mugman/Chalice is coded in a way that causes him to do a little bounce up whenever they parried . When you parried, you were in the wrong position and got hit by the balloon the moment you parried. This also applies to the pink/white balls in the fight with Rumor Honeybottoms. Also, if the object is coded to despawn when parried, this issue won't occur.
I hope this helps 👍👍👍
My favorite animation is definitely Chef Saltbaker's second phase, the way his face is animated and the reflection on his hand is all mesmerizing.
yeah, mines the animation for the devil + king dice puppets in glumstones fight.
idk why i just think their cute
The Cursed/Divine Relic challenge is a LOT easier if you do the plane fights. The relic doesn’t limit your mini-plane so you don’t have to worry about losing invincibility and since you only have 2 weapons so cycling to a specific weapon isn’t really an issue.
I really like this more genuine Everything wrong with.
I like how the skits and jokes are slightly more far between. Whenever one comes up it’s really funny. They’re also less in your face, so you laugh at his commentary and still learn about the game.
Chariii5 would be very good at being a teacher. _Ding_
Ye
Agree with all
I really like Cuphead, though I've never played it, because it's a game that the designers genuinely wanted to work on. They got holidays and breaks and they were able to make a game that now has a Netflix series. It's very inspirational.
The fact that Charriii praises parts of the game while doing the actual sinning shows how brilliantly designed Cuphead really is
4:51 Assuming King Dice remembered us,he probably just wouldnt let us through as we owed the Devil,but he would let normal civilians pass through.He wouldnt let us through until we got the soul contracts so that makes perfect sense.
This was a nice spin on the usual EWW formula. This felt more like just a personal thoughts in the form of an EWW with plenty of the humour I’ve come to expect from your previous EWWs! Really nice stuff!
How was it only TODAY when I realized Everything Wrong With abbreviates to “eww” 🤣
@@kiricappuchin Haha, it took me a while way back when too, always reading ‘EWW’ and thinking it was some weird inside joke I didn’t get on Charriii’s thumbnails.
He also made "Everything I Love"s about the Sonic Movie 1 and 2.
I genuinely love this video, and honestly mirrored a lot of thoughts I had in the game.
I played with Chalace the entire time when my friend told you you can get her right at the start, so my playthrough was different.
The changes for chalace are so interesting, I knew that KD's card attack had extended hitboxes for Chalace, allowing you to hit above them to parry... But I never noticed that it had an indicator!
I also didn't have an issue with knowing to parry the tongue because I specifically noticed that *any* pink can be parried. Every time I tested that I had a dumb smile on my face. Just like "This won't be a parr- Oh my god!"
I adore the fact that you actually use the names of everything despite very little being directly told in the game, I knew a lot of them but still learned some more by watching this
21:01 well you see, the lore is simple, werner was approached by the owners of the house to build them a cat, that can roam freely and also be controlled by werner, he called the katzenwagen to assist him in the battle and he can enter it through the mouth
Oh shit a 50 minute banger
Hi Nathaniel
XD 🤣
Bandy Man
Wats up Nathaniel bandy
Yo, what's up, Nathaniel Bandy. Do you like my profile picture?
The fireballs in Grim Matchstick's final phase aren't even meant to function the way they do. They're meant to split into only two directions instead of four, but due to a bug, they split into four every time. So technically, the fight is meant to be ever so slightly easier.
This game is truly something special. It pays tribute to classic rubber hose animation and has some of the best music and visuals I’ve ever seen in a video game period and I’ve played breath of the freaking wild. Every boss is animated beautifully (especially salt baker) and every little detail and effort goes into the fights. I love this game so much and I’m happy you enjoyed this game as well Charii!
69 👍
And now we have a show of them
Cuphead is such a fun and fair game that half of the sins are just, “it’s hard”
2:44 Actually, yeah! Phase 3 represents the four bosses of SF2. Tiger is Sagat, bull is Vega, Snake is Bison and the slot machine itself is Balrog. Pretty cool stuff
Correction:
Ribby & Croaks wearing boxing gloves and the slot machine references Balrog and his gambling problem the snakes represent Vega because of the snake tattoo on his body the tigers references Sagat and his Tiger Shot and Tiger Uppercut moves and M.Bison is represented by the bulls
oh cool, didn't know about all that. Thanks a ton for correcting me!
37:10 while it could catch you off, the animation for the roll attack does lead me to believe he’s gearing up for a roll. And while the air attack could be misleading, it looks like he’s planning to *bounce.* But I totally get how you could see them as the opposite attacks.
when he mentioned that some of matchsticks fireballs have weird frames it reminded me of a fact I heard about how originally some fireballs were designed to be shot straight instead of zig-zag and it's possible the change is why the frames are awkward also fun fact his flame bubbles in the final phase are actually glitched as they aren't actually supposed to split in 4 directions and were actually supposed split into up down or left to right but due bad coding both happen at once and I guess they were satisfied with how it turned out cause it wasn't fixed even after updates.
For Mortimer Freeze’s animations I think it’s just you who got so tripped up because it all makes perfect sense to me.
Rolling across the ground starts with him pulling back so he can quickly pull himself forward to have more speed.
Jumping has him prepare to throw himself against the ground to then bounce up over you to the other side
This game certainly made a name for itself for what is basically Metal Slug with 1930s aesthetic.
2:40 I never realized that! That’s very clever, Studio MDHR.
In addition both Ribby and Ryu share the same first letter of their names.
Meanwhile, Ken and Croaks share the same sounding first letter of their names.
42 👍
Mortimer freeze's attack that you are having trouble with does make sense. Imagine trying to slingshot your body forward with your arms. Now image your as bouncy as he is. If you throw yourself at the ground, you will bounce. All you can really do is fling yourself forward like that. You dont throw a bowling ball down to bowl, you throw if forward by swinging your hand back and then forward to release it.
Kudos for actually beating the game.
I don’t think I would’ve even made it half way, let alone actually beating the whole thing.
I didn't even get past Isle 1
i got the game this month and im nearly done with the game my sanity has dissapeared long ago
I’ve 200%’ed the main game and 100%’ed the Delicious Last Course.
@@jackieosborne4298 I get isle 2 and especially isle 3 but if you can’t get past isle one 2d games aren’t for you and probably games that require skill in general
Once I got to Dr Khals robot I genuinely didn’t think I would beat the game but somehow ended up with a B+. Point is that if you are really patient and kinda plan out how to deal with every boss you will eventually get through the whole game
Cuphead is such a Masterpiece and one of the most well known Indie Games ever made! It's Challenge is very unique for everyone experiencing this game. All the Bosses/ Levels are super creative and fun. And the Rubber Hose Style Animation is just mind blowing (Despite the fact it's like the hardest part when the Animation are taking your eyes away)! ❤️
This really looks like one of the hardest and most visually impressive games out there
If you think this game is hard, you should see what the Touhou Project or Dark Souls games are like.
@@Loner098 or Hollow Knight and Rain World. Both of those games are a bitch.
@@behindthecookie8653 Also, what could be the hardest turn-based RPG?
@@Loner098 Wizardry?
28:34 I just realized a cool detail about that phase: the cards King Dice sends out have clubs and hearts, the cards in Cuphead's EX meter got diamonds, and Mugman's meter has spades.😉♣♥♦♠
34:17 fun fact about this: if your able to beat the pawns and the knight first try, you get access to the bishop without needing to find another ladder, and this applies to the rest of the kings bosses. If you do it first try, you can beat all of the kings bosses (minus the gauntlet) with only one ladder
Edit: by first try, I mean without dying
Ah... so THAT'S why I has a lot of walking to do...
so basically skill issue.
still I get why its designed that way, if its too differently difficult they'll instead push you to go back to the base gameplay instead.
if you got gud you can keep going.
Actually you can die once so actually second try
40:20 That "oh" was hilarious
"Everything wrong with pretending to be a content creator in said content creator's replies"
Can't believe I didn't notice until just now but glad I found it. Love the video
Another Sin: During Captain Brineybeard’s fight, in the final phase, I have a problem with the laser, too, but not for the same reason. The barrel that charges downwards at you from the beginning of the fight is STILL there, and is the exact same. When you realize that you have to crouch, in order to avoid the laser, you can’t move while you’re crouching, The barrel is also indestructible, so sometimes they can fall, while your crouching.
You can still Dash while crouching, just hold down and press Dash. You can also Parry the pink laser

Welp that didn't last long
Maybe the Snow guy's Anticipation Animations worked like this;
1. He had to Lunge to Start Rolling.
2. He had to Bounce off the Ground for his Jump Attack.
It's always interesting to see what people think of the bosses in this game, because opinions of certain bosses vary wildly, and that's just down to someone's certain shots and charms.
For example, I almost always stuck with the Chaser and the Spread, the former being used when I'm overwhelmed by attack, and the latter for when I can get an uninterrupted hit on the boss (Although in the DLC I did trade the chaser for the crackshot). I also usually try to get through the first phase of a fight without taking any damage, to the point where I almost always just restarted the fight after I took a hit.
The boss I struggled with the most were probably Djimmi the Great, Grim Matchstick, Rumor HoneyBottoms, and, Dr. Kahl's Robot. Most of the other bosses we're either pretty easy such as Werner Werman or Sally Stageplay, or pretty difficult, but a lot of fun, like Cala Maria and both final bosses.
Just summed up my entire playthrough lmao
That last statement sums up my entire feeling on this game. I remember when it was in development, described as a passion project with an immensely long development cycle by a small indie studio that loved old hand-drawn animation, and then when it came out, I found myself thinking... They had the entire field of game genres to go with, and they went with a bullet hell of all things, the one genre that WOULDN'T let players appreciate the animation!
You know this game is a masterpiece when the sins arent really that controversial
37:41 That's also the reason why they put an extra option to either keep your normal directional controls while rotated or to have vertical motions move you sideways in that phase. And that's ONLY for this specific fight and that specific phase!😵💫
Your reaction to Grim Matchstick is pretty similar to mine. I was loving this game when it came out, but he was the first and really only boss that actually pissed me off. The trick is to use lobber on the last phase because it can take him down so quickly.
Yeah. Him and saltbaker are my only 2 hated bosses (of course gameplay only) on regular.
I’m sorry, you don’t hate Kahl’s robot?
@@spiderninja211 the wonders of cuphead is that some find Dr. Kahl horrible while some find him inexplicable easy
The funny thing is, Mangosteen being an easy boss in the middle of a gauntlet is ITSELF a reference to the Melonbread boss from Gunstar heroes (which the entire dice palace thing is a homage to that stage in Gunstar Heroes) who was essentially a 'two eyes and big teeth'. If you got lucky you'd end up with Melonbread as one of the bosses you had to fight who was piss easy and essentially a 'free win'.
This feels more like a review then just a everything wrong with and honestly I LOVE it so much. Hearing your full on thoughts is very exciting
Tbh everything can be explained by “cartoon physics” or “skill issue”
Honestly when i first played i died to the root pack like 70 times and then i screamed when i beat it.
Same
20:35 I think it's simply that Cuphead himself is shrunken down to the size of a rat (probably by The Devil's magic or something).🤔🐀
4:46
ik this is just a joke and all but the reason why he leet elder kettle through the die house is because he had nothing to do with the devil while king dice will stop cuphead and mugman cause they need to get the contracts, pretty sure you canput the peices together, but all that aside love the video, and 50 MINUTES OF MY FAVORITE VIDEO GAME, YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
5:06 The reason Elder Kettle comes to find Cuphead and Mugman in this cutscene is to let them know to make the right choice when they reach The Devil at the end of the game.
This was a pretty good video. It's interesting to hear someone else's experience with the game be so thoroughly explained when I've been playing it for so long. I don't agree with a lot of things, but like you said, everyone's experience with the game is way different.
29:24 I guess you could say he gives you a hell of a time
Okay, I commented on this in the Sonic Origins EWW, but I'm gonna say it again, I cannot stress enough how nice it is to hear you say the actual names of every minor enemy, miniboss and boss. I don't know why it matters to me so much, but it makes it feel more like you researched everything possible just to give accurate names, instead of being like every other TH-cam game discussion channel who'll just call them some "hilarious" joke name or act like it's the most outlandish thing they've ever seen. Major, MAJOR respect for just how much effort you put into these videos!
It’s just charming especially when the people who made the games probably spent a while on the names
42:23 Actually the game does tell you, the 3 people on the podium (1st place, 2nd place, and 3rd place) Say things like “I’m *downright* awsome” hinting at which ghosts to interact
A Missed sin: After leaving the 1st die house, Elder Kettle doesn't even tell us what that way out even IS.
In fact I don't think he even shows up again until the ending cutscene, We just refuse to give the devil the contracts and beat him to a pulp. The way it's set up sounds like we need a special trick or item to even stand a chance against the devil, But no, We just beat the snot out of him like everyone else.
20:16
No there is actually an explanation about why Werner was in the war: In the military, they train rats to sniff out land mines and dig them out. This is a common thing done in the army, and it would make sense that Werner would have won the war.
Also, Werner isn't a colossal ass rat, and Grim isn't a gecko with wings (ngl, i actually burst out laughing when you said that the first time i saw this video). It's just that they can't make the bosses look really tiny, otherwise it would be impossible. The same can be said for Baroness Von Bon Bon's minions, and Rumour Honeybottoms, alongside the police bee and worker bees.
Another fun fact is that Elder Kettle was also in World War I, so there is a chance that Elder Kettle and Werner know each other.

DONT JUDGE ME
Hi Charriii, I really enjoyed this kind of EWW. You give entertaining, but insightful commentary on Cuphead's gameplay and design - in fact, it was so enjoyable that I wouldn't mind if you did this new type of EWW more often. The style fits you!
5:01 The reason is because the deal with the devil is to join him and give him the souls of all the bosses that you beat, by not agreeing you have to fight the devil but the bosses keep their souls and you dont join the devil.
46:35 Nice sticker star throwback!
Also, my favorite boss is chef saltbaker
Also also, favorite animation is The Devil's skeleton climbing out of his skin.
Also also also, the last one makes me even more confused on how this game is E-10+
7:28 tip for this phase: stay at the very top of the screen the whole time and switch to the mini bombs. It's much easier to avoid the mummies and eyeballs, and you are dealing lots of damage this way.
Even though I haven't played this game yet, the animation in this game is just so beautiful to look at it. Pretty much the entire game.
And yet, I got a feeling it'll probably take me a while to actually finish because I know for sure I'm gonna get distracted just watching everything.
Also, 50 minute banger of a video. Nice
This game absolutely terrifies me. Yet I’m just so blown away by how well done the old-style animation is in a video game.
8:03 Chariii has apparently watched Gravity Falls.
I love this guy.
Fun fact during the sarcophagus level if you have the bombs, you can just stay on the top of the screen and fire the bombs you will almost never get hit by the eyeballs and the bombs are capable of one shoting the mummies that are able to hit you
42:23 there is actually clues on inkwell isle 4 that tell you the combination, just talk to the 3 people on the pedestals next to the glumstone bossfight, and follow each buzzword (up, down, left, or right) and follow it in number order of each contestant
While you are right, that wasn't what he was talking about, he was mentioning how the Angel and Demon secret boss and the Mausoleums can only be played once but if you do the button combination (which I think is holding L & R) you can replay them again.
Reminder to everyone: This video is just a fan made video based off of CinemaSins. It's just for entertainment, that's it.
25:03 I felt that as i dealt with that while trying to p-rank it
Correction on 19:06: the endcard rewards a point for every parry that could damage you. You are able to parry the same object three times if said object can damage you if you fail to parry at the right time. Example: parrying the creepy pink balloons, parrying the giant peppermint during Baroness Von Bon Bon third stage, and Captain Briney Beard’s Ship laser-breath. That’s why parryable objects such as Phantom Express tail or King Dice’s die don’t count
I apologize in advance if you’re already aware. I was scrolling through comments and no one pointed it out which felt weird to me.
King dice cards are also a parry-able object that you can use to rack up parry points though by the time you get to that point you probably already have enough
40:23 what actually happened is that, because you used mugman as player 1, while also having the cookie equipped, that meant that saltbaker had kidnapped mugman. now if you had chosen to be CUPHEAD instead while still having the cookie equipped, then yeah saltbaker would've kidnapped cuphead instead of mugman. ms chalice is kidnapped if you choose to not have the cookie equipped regardless of who you choose to be player 1
in short, if you have the cookie equipped, then chef saltbaker kidnaps whoever it is that equipped that cookie
This is actually a really cool detail! Since I had Mugman on the whole time, I would never have noticed this and thought it was just part of the regular game!
7:04 the potion that elder kettle gave them grants them the power to come back
sayori :
Cuphead is a game full of love,charm,and plenty of salt
The developers saved most of the salt for the dlc lol 😆
24:09 just for anyone wondering (atleast every time I’ve done dr khals robot) the bombs have a pretty predictable pattern, they switch sides every time left to right to left to right etc, you can also make them run into eachother which causes them to blow up, just a tip and sorry for rambling
I was not expecting Cuphead of all things to be an "Everything wrong with..." but here we are. Regardless, This is amazing and keep up the good work and amazing content I can always enjoy.
the chef saltbaker cutscene changes depending on which character you're playing as
This literally takes “Skill issue” to the next level (even though I beat the entire game minus the dlc)
0:41 oh my God that laugh sounds so evil
I really like how there are actually genuine critiques of the game in here instead of just being jokes especially for a game that’s pretty universally reviewed positively, so to get some genuine and real opinions on issues the game has which I can very much attest to from my own time playing the game
48:46 They even went so far that they first drew all the character animations on paper (just like in the old times) and then scanned the frames to a computer for coloring. Interesting that they wanted to take this extra step instead of just animating everything digitally, which was done with The Cuphead Show on Netflix.😉✏
Here's my sentence for this game...
*A KNOCKOUT!*
With a serving of the DLC!

😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
23:14 top tier joke i loved it
Member Squad reporting in here! I miss all the memes of Cuphead and him asking you:
*”What’s the matter little fella? Bad at Video Games?”*
I also love how some of the bosses are based off other characters in games, Grim MatchStick is clearly the Megaman 2 Mecha Dragon, everyone hates that boss lol.
With the snowman's roll attack, what's going on is, when he wants to roll, he tilts back and pushes himself forward like a wheel. When he jumps, he slams himself into the ground to bounce.
12:50 my tatic for this part of the fight was to be on top of the bomb at like a distance because none of the spikes from it go directly up and then when I get the chance I spray em with spread and that gets the job done
I enjoyed the disclaimer at the front since I was horrible at Root Pack my first attempt and Dr. Kahl was easier for me which end up pissing off my friends since they would struggle with it but I would breeze through it
24:47
Fun Fact: Archie once had a Sonic/Megaman crossover comic, and Eggman and Wily actually created a new ship that they co-piloted, which is called the Wily Egg.
Don't know if you knew that while writing that segment, but good on you if you did!
43:09 The pink cards give off a parryable particle effect for Ms. Chalice
50 minutes of Cuphead? this is gonna be good
For your point about the snowman's rolling attack I thought each animation made perfect sense.
For the forward roll he is preparing to launch forward using that speed to roll.
For the jump he is preparing to bounce off the ground and launch into the air.
I don't really see the problem with those animations.
My favorite animations had to be Esther Winchester's first transition to her second phase. It looks so satisfying to look at EVERY time I see it. And right underneath that would be the entirety of Mortimer Freeze's second phase. The Snow Golem's movements look so smooth!
I love how he complains about multiple things about each boss but only gives them 1 sin. But gave Beppi 2 because of this "horse", Werner because of his German inspiration and Katzewagen being his own machine (which fun fact, he's not the only one who gets eaten by his own machine, but the second boss that does only does so in a secret phase, which are the Yankee Yippers), Rook because of how morbid his fight is when you really think about it, and Wally being cannibalized so the creator of the game had to explain he didn't actually die when he was one of the few bosses that didn't show up in the good ending
YES! I was waiting for this video for a while! The commentary that you give makes me wonder things from the game as well XD
Fun fact: Fitting with King Dice being a reference to that level, Mangosteen is a reference to Melon Bread, a boss in the Gunstar Heroes level Black's Dice Maze. Infamously easy, like a joke boss.
