Joe took one for the team playing this one, yeesh 😂
I'm pretty sure half the reason for the free sound effects was because only 2 people worked on it, so it's okay in those regards especially for their first game
me: mom, can we get Cuphead?
mom: we have Cuphead at home
Cuphead at home:
Pretty obvious its a cuphead ripoff but the game itself isnt that bad. Its like more content for cuphead fans
Cuphead is one of my favorite games of all time. And this game just makes me appreciate how good Cuphead is, in the worst way possible
The piece of trash dev's that made this game blocked me on twitter for giving honest negative reviews. I'm soooo happy this game is failing the way it is!
When I was a small boy years ago, I hated this game for being a shameless cuphead ripoff. But now, I’m a man. I hate this game for just not being good.
My main gripe with this game is honestly the music; you can’t expect your OST to be praised if it all just has one melody to work with. It just shows how lazy the compositions were despite the selection of genres. You’ve already pointed out other things that left much to be desired.
Congratulations! This game exists.
I was looking forward to the game until i forgot an i saw it on steam so a buyed it 3/10 the sound board is missing idk where the sound is and the bosses are mid except the final one.
not worth 3 years of waiting.
Thanks, me no buy
I appreciate the inspiration from cuphead and the nice backgrounds, but if I’m being honest the gameplay looks super boring. And yeah it does feel a bit too much like a Cuphead clone. This is just not it.
6:26 keep Rollin, Rollin, Rollin, Rollin
The trailers made the animations of the bosses A LOT smoother than they were in the final version. That and there is little to no sound effects for enemies and bosses and only just the music plays just makes it boring.
Honestly I want this to be great so bad. I just hope they can fix everything cause they clearly spent a lot of time and effort on this.
It’s like making Cuphead but a bad version
is it true that this game has an bugdoesnt save your progress? My friend got pissed at it when he was playing it
The damage sound is just a random annoying punching sound effect
This looks like a prototype for cuphead than a game inspired by it. Every animation frels like it doesnt have enough life in it, in cuphead everything had life and everything looked old yet had enough polish to tell you this game is a modern game inspired by the past. This games art…feels off to me, it isnt bad but the weapons look like they could use more polish with how fast they all fire. The backgrounds don't feel like their from a past cartoon it all just feels really off.
I have a theory that ALL of the budget went into the animation to look like Cuphead. But even so that can’t be true because some animations look terrible and not smooth at all like the jungle stage
i'd be more forgiving if this wasn't the same price as Cuphead. ($20)
How do we send indie games for you to review?
also it costs 20$ for an hour of gameplay
Honestly with how this game looks they should have made it inspired by modern fantasy cartoons like Gravity Falls or Steven Universe. It would match the style better at least.
Small team or not: the fact that what's in the game is the same stuff we saw 3 GOD DAM YEARS AGO with no changes is appalling. The only thing the early trailers didn't show were the very badly designed levels so if your telling that what had them hung up for 3 years, you should rethink game development.
For a 2 person made game…it’s pretty good…. Cuphead had an entire team
Dude it's so similar to cuphead it's ridicoulous
Cuphead was hard yes BUT you got power-ups to help you, parry and dash AND can see where you were in a boss fight. All thoses features were cool and useful. There's also the invincibility frame who's really important in those type of games. In enchanted portal, you got none of that and no explanation about the weapons. If the game is too hard, it's not fun! If the bosses barely moves it's not interresting to look at 😐I saw 4 lets plays of this game and found the fights boring. All the bosses have one attack, they don't move a lot and the smaller enemies are difficult to avoid. The most painful thing is there no invicibility frame. That's so cruel! The developpers likes to see their customers suffers or what?
I can’t help but wonder if the game design was neglected for the animation. The game has a really small team so it’s easy to question if one aspect was favoured over another.
Honestly i was so excited for this cause i loved cuphead and i would really like a game with awesome boss designs. Bur now that they made a shadow release with no save files, bad audio and bad sound effects and shit controls with shit gameplay and THEY HAVE THE AUDACITY TO MAKE IT 20 DOLLARS NAH I DONT THINK THIS GAME IS SAVEABLE
Feels weightless and animated like a certain "phone bad" short student film
You know the one
I honestly thought they were done for because of the crowdfunding failure but had a little hope. And it actually came out better than i expected. Not to the point I wanna buy it tho
OK at least I like it🤬
I think there’s a lot of potential for Cuphead-likes I would like to see some in the future that are actually well designed
