Topic: Cuphead on Switch

Since there was a discount very recently I finally decided to download it. Yes, it does look awesome and its great fun. But Oomph, is it hard! I have done the first world, but that was already VERY hard!

@Henmii sure is. Probably the hardest game I've beaten. Right next to zelda 2. There are thankfully little power ups you can get. I made use of the power up that lets you take an extra hit but gives you less damage to opponents. So it's a trade off but it's one I utilized. And just wait til the last 2 bosses, they're a doozy. I did like the game alot. But it's one I'll never play again due to the difficulty.

@NintendoByNature,

I saw the power-up you mentioned. I didn't try it yet. It makes the fights longer, wich might make it more difficult too.

(I'm digging up this topic.)

I'm currently playing through the game, completed the three first worlds after 35 hours of play time...
Yes, you read right: 35 hours. Especially the dragon and the robot took very long to get beaten. On these two I needed two days each to beat them (playing roughly 3 hours a day). Somehow I beat three bosses during my gaming session today.

But what a game! It'll be probably the first game ever I'll double dip if it ever gets released physically.

@ophone i'm waiting for the DLC 😭 hopefully we get some news alongside the netflix show

Out of all the bosses, I hate Matchstik the most (think I got his name right, lol)...one time I took him out and my arms were sweating and sore for an hour or so. Also I think the Pro controller's left stick is a bit TOO sensitive and it sometimes causes me to use the Super in the wrong direction which is irritating. Also yeah...still no DLC. T.T

I watched a video after having attempted Matchstick multiple times.
The guy in the video used the dropping bomb weapon in the second and the third phase, copying that guy I didn't need long to take out the dragon.
I was too thick to figure that strategy out myself.

Yesterday I reached the devil. It might take me a while to beat him.

I gave up after uncountable attempts, taking the bad ending.

I apologize for resurrecting a dead thread.

I absolutely adore almost everything about this game, but I have to put it down for a while. I was playing it handheld, and after spending about an hour trying to fight the dragon, I had to give up because my fingernail was digging into my thumb. It's still sensitive a few days later. I don't think I can play this in handheld any more...
