meme game

Ever play Metal Slug or Contra?

It's fun. It is very short though.

You’ll end up quitting

It's good but if you possess even an ounce of skill, you'll beat the game in no time at all.

both

It's pretty fun, if a little simplistic (in that you wish there was more to do or fight). Worth at least one run to see all the bosses and their phases. It is a well-made gamr.

I only have a couple ounces of skill, and I beat the game in about 7 hours. Didn't once go into simple mode or even buy the heart charms

if you're complete shit at games, you're gonna have a bad time. it's great.

The parry system is utter fucking shit, and the devs had the audacity to make it so that you are unable to parry unless you start to fall down after your jump. They did this just to justify a shitty charm that should have been an obligatory feature done with just one more jump button.

Meme game.

I'm able to parry without starting to fall

Not a game, not a meme, but a soyme.

It's alright, but nothing mind blowing. It's a pretty standard contra platformer with some decent bosses, and some frustrating hitbox issues. It's not worth $20, though.

But that's wrong. You can parry any time.

Lil bit of option A, lil bit of option B.

Its a decent game propped up by its style. The Run n Gun levels really show how bad of a game it is, really lazy level design, but man it looks good while being lazy. A majority of bosses are extremely simple/easy too.

No you fucking can't, otherwise the Pink Sugar option would have never existed.

What you can parry whenever you want.

Refer to you stupid tripcunt

>make it so that you are unable to parry unless you start to fall down after your jump.
completely false

It's only fun if you a+, then s+p rank every level. But then it's a lot of fun.

Then you're playing it wrong. You can jump and parry on the way up.

Yeah but you have to time it right and it's hard and I'm bad at video games. I'm telling my mom what you said.

You see this? You know why he doesn't do exactly what you're saying? Because IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

Stop telling me otherwise, you obviously didn't fucking play the game. And get rid of your trip, faggot.

/thread

>you have a trip therefore you are wrong
nah bro, you're just shit at games.

Look at him parry the ghost in the tutorial. There is no way he was starting to descend before that.

As long as you have time to deploy your straw before you hit the object it will work. You need to have clearance, but the window for it starts well before the apex of your jump.

Average retard on Sup Forums misses the point as usual.
Every parry he made, sparing one, had him descending. The only exception was when he was at his highest possible jump height, which is, you know, the point where you start to descend.

>still can't play as best guy in singleplayer

What the fuck, Chad.

I played and finished it. Just because you have trouble with the timing doesn't mean its impossible.

You can very easily jump up under a parry-able object and parry it long before you reach the height of your jump. Thats how it works.

I thought the run and gun stages were more fun to play than half the boss fights. Most of them just drag on for too long and their patterns aren't very fun. But also because the run and gun stages remind me of Micky Mouse World of Illusion on the Sega Genesis, but way more frantic.

>he can't parry something above him

How to spot a faggot who couldn't beat the magician rabbit without getting hit.

No you didn't. Pink Sugar exists for a reason. The devs made parrying shit on purpose, and I can easily refute your dumbass just by showing you pic related.

A lot of people don't like it because it was just all around solid and great with no unique gameplay gimmicks. The people who avidly hate this game likely got stuck on the dragon for some reason even though it isn't even a hard boss.

>can't do it right
>ITS THE DEVS' FAULT!

FOTM Defense Force is bringing in reinforcements, I see.

I know what I'm talking about, I played Cuphead for 5 minutes and cried that I couldn't get the timing down so they made it wrong!

This was the flavor of several months ago dude. It really doesn't get talked about anymore because anyone half decent already beat it.

>people suck at the game, spread verifiably false information and shit opinions
>better let it slide, w-wouldn't want them to think I'm shilling....
Can't win with you faggots

>4 months ago
Whatever you say, pal.

It's literally impossible to get over the tall box in the tutorial. This video proves it! F-fucking devs releasing broken games

This shit was really easy though

That bastard is gonna be haunted by that video the rest of his life.

This, but unironically. I beat the Devil, and I still think the parry is a glaringly flawed gimmick. I actually know what I'm talking about, unlike your autistic ass who would rather argue with ad hominem instead of actual debate like the underage you are.
The broken parry system is not an opinion, it is a solid fact backed up by clear evidence that you ignore in fear of finding Cuphead as an imperfect game.

you're all shit at this game

>hey guys i just bought a video game, now i will not play it and instead make a useless thread here to ask these people what they think of it to form "my" opinion of it

All I know is when I beat aye carumba sunflower I jumped from below the platforms and parried pink seeds on the way up. I'm not going to go back and record it for you, but it sure sounds like other anons had a similar experience, and I'm not sure why you weren't able to do it. Maybe your controller was broken. Maybe your pc sucks. Maybe you're bad at pushing buttons.

>controller
I used a keyboard suckhead

Maybe that's your problem then, buckaroo.

Or King Dice. You can time the dice roll by jumping and parrying immediately after jumping to get a specific number.

Wow, rude.

>game built for a controller
>use a keyboard cause MUH MASTER RACE

Love all the assumption that I couldn't finish the game. Please go ahead and make yourselves look more pathetic in the name of your "git gud" horseshit excuses.

Nobody said you couldn't finish it, just that you're an idiot. Devs giving you the option to dash through attacks or have an enhanced parry gives you different ways of approaching the game, it isn't an inherent game-breaking flaw

>100%
>not 200%

Git gud kiddo

Imagine being so buttblasted about not being able to do something simple that you make something like this. No one even said that, you autist.

If a PC game can't work on a keyboard, then it's a flawed port. All PC games should be able to work on a keyboard. If it doesn't, it's not meant to be on PC.
Even Valve knows how to make multi-console work better than this piece of crap.
It's called an implication, but of course anyone with an IQ of the average sub-Saharan African won't realize that.

>couldn't even S rank goopy
Literally kill yourself, senpai
[Spoiler]congrats on beating the tutorial[/spoiler]

This was never about your skill. It was you misconstruing what the game can and cannot let you do. Jeez, put your back down.

>inferring that everyone is out to get him
Sorry about the low self esteem, friend, I didn't know
>implying that an input agnostic game has to be played HIS way
The absolute state of gamers in 2017

Congrats on the top tier bait today, dude

>Cuphead is lifetime exclusive on Xbox for the console space, but in the PC space it’s going to be on every platform we can. So we’ll launch on PC and look into Mac and Linux thereafter.
>literally made for xbox
>WAH WHY CAN'T I USE A KEYBOARD

You're bad

I'm like 80% sure I'm being baited but I don't even care because it's too damn funny.

I've never seen a Cuphead thread where people didn't go apeshit like this.

The Orange Box was made for the Xbox, too. The PC port works just as fine, if not better than the original.
It's not me that's bad, it's the game that's bad.
That's the power of a circlejerk.

Let's see your game % then faggot

It's been forever since the game came out, what do you want? We already burned out all fun discussion and memes in the first month or two.

>playing a "post-game" that gives you no new content to play with
i'm glad you enjoy wasting your life on anything except actual fun

>no new content
>new attack patterns and phases for almost every boss
You're wasting money only beating the game on easy

>any difficulty except the hardest isn't the most fun

can you be any worse at video games?

Okay I gotta hand to you on this one, good effort.

OOOOOH THEY DID THIS INSTEAD OF THAT OH YEP THAT'S DEFINITELY WORTH REPLAYING THE GAME FOR
>new attack patterns
>and phases
No new phases were ever implemented for Expert difficulty.
Even more proof that Cuphead apologists didn't actually play Cuphead.

...

u can beat the game in like 10 minutes

seriously, 1 mexican speedrunner has the record for all 3 diffuculties, as well as both the menu glitch and non-menu glitch runs

the longest is like 20 on the absolute hardest and without any glitches

even on the latest patch (his are all done on 1.0) a guy has a record of 25min

...

Don't listen to all these fucking retards op, cuphead is a good game. Enjoyed it the entire playthrough, and there's not that many games out there that I can say "I enjoyed it the entire playthrough"

inb4
>I enjoyed your mom the entire playthrough.

>he doesn't want to be the best he can be
>he can't handle new shot patterns
>he can't P rank run and gun stages
>he can't even beat goopy le grande on expert

Lemme guess, you used the +2 HP and tracking shot to beat the game

Nigga, NOBODY uses that combination to beat the game unless they got all the free time in the world. The lack of DPS is insane.

>cuphead's a shitty meme game that's style over substance
>wut do you mean elaborate? i'll have you know i grew up on the NES and know what i'm talking about

I'd play Expert difficulty if I actually had a reason to do so. It's not handed down to you at the beginning of the game, so when you do beat it, there's no reason to use Expert difficulty since you already played through all that the game has to actually show you. No, new attack patterns are not a reason to replay the game if they're just going to be recycled attributes. There are no new phases for the bosses to tempt you to fight them again, either, so any possible reason

Expert difficulty is a chore, not a medal of honor.

Is-

Honestly, I found it to be a lot more fun than my original play through. To each their own, though.

MY BUDDY LIKES YOU

...

Then you go to s rank it, which is the real game

@hater
Keyboard is literally 100x better and more precise than X360 though. Can hit all of the keys at the same time without moving your fingers and you never hit a wrong direction. Also most keyboard switches, even on bad laptop computers are a million times more tactile and reliable than shitty 360 controllers.

I respect that you stuck through the game though (if u are telling the truth) and that this is not a "mad cuz bad" situation. I find it really surprising that the parrying bothered you. The only part where parry didn't work for me was the beetles in the tree run and gun, which I think were bugged (no pun intended).

THE GAME IS LIKE SO FULL OF NOSTALGIA MAN I MISS THE OLD CARTOON STYLE IT WAS SO COOL
t. millenial born in 1998
You bought a meme

>a letter score that is totally external to the real game is the real game
AUTISM DETECTED

I've never heard anyone call it nostalgia. It is possible that they have nostalgia for Tom and Jerry cartoons and stuff that played while they were a kid.

Needs a better difficulty scale across worlds.

The final world bosses really don't feel much more difficult than some of the first world bosses.

That's pretty much the reason why Chad and his brother made Cuphead in the first place. Sure, there's probably a buttload of bandwagoners out there but there are people who genuinely like that old shit because they used to watch it back in the day. I know I did.

Yeah, the second world bosses seemed like the only ones whose difficulty was all consistent.

everything is a meme game

the bad things about this game are

-the run and gun levels (but they are less than 10% of the game). they are pretty awful in comparison to a Ghouls n Ghosts level, or a Gunstar Heroes level.

-you can't play as Mug Man in single player

-it has an unlockable black and white mode. but in that mode you can't tell any longer what enemies and shots you can parry

I give it a 9/10

Best boss in the game. Prove me wrong.

>they are pretty awful in comparison to a Ghouls n Ghosts level, or a Gunstar Heroes level
how so?

She's the only main female boss who's not a young, conventionally attractive humanoid, I've realized

The run n gun levels feel sort of tacked on, the only ones I liked were Funfair and Ridge, and I sort of would have preferred a few more bosses (maybe three more for an even 20 debtors) instead

its extremely hard right from the beginning, its overrated, but it's still a little fun
