Before deciding on the charming cup that has endeared so many fans, the brothers created over 150 character designs to see which one worked the best. The inspiration for the Cuphead character comes from a 1936 Japanese animated propaganda film where a man with a teacup head morphs into a tank. With a limited staff and limited resources, the finishing of the final product took incredible patience and loyalty from the entire staff. They began producing Cuphead in 2010 and worked on it for seven years until its release this past September. They enlisted help from various musicians and developers to assist them on what would be a long journey of creating Cuphead. The game was produced by indie games developer StudioMDHR Entertainment which consists of two brothers, Jake and Chad Moldenhauer. Only after defeating King Dice can the player challenge the devil himself. Before challenging him, Cuphead must roll the roulette wheel and defeat several casino mini-bosses, each with their own unique twists and theme songs. King Dice is the devil’s right hand man and has an enchanting theme song to accompany him. The player must defeat a flying chocolate bar, an angry jaw-breaker and an unpredictably moving candy corn before challenging the Baroness herself. The Baroness isn’t a fan of fighting so she sends her various candy minions after the player to do her dirty work. As he bounces around the player must be careful to avoid the falling blob and his punches. Goopy is a blue slime ball that evolves each time you defeat him. These bosses include Goopy La Grande, Baroness Von Bon Bon, and my personal favorite: Mr.
Cuphead and Mugman now have to conquer three separate isles defeating numerous bosses and other miscellaneous levels to fulfill their contract.Įach boss has their own unique artwork and theme song which brings the player a sense of wonder and nostalgia for old cartoons such as “Tom and Jerry” and “Looney Tunes. The game centers around Cuphead and his brother Mugman who have foolishly pushed their luck and been forced to make a deal with the devil.
I’m talking of course about Cuphead, an indie run-and-gun game inspired by the art of 1930’s cartoonists. A new game got released that has sold over a million copies in its first two weeks.
