Cuphead is a 2017 indie run and gun game developed and published by Studio MDHR. The game follows its titular teacup-headed character and his brother Mugman, as they make a deal with the Devil to pay casino losses by repossessing the souls of runaway debtors. In the game, up to two players control Cuphead and/or Mugman to fight through several levels and boss fights; the game does not have a rigid narrative structure. As the game progresses, the protagonist acquires more power and abilities, eventually facing the Devil. Players, however, can only equip a limited number of these abilities at a given time.

Runs well on modern hardware.

This is the best indie game ever made and probably one of the greatest games of all time. The amount of fun I had playing this game is unmatched. No other game has managed to entertain me the way Cuphead did. The cartoon art style is the cherry on top, and the gameplay loop is so addictive that you never get bored of it. I've beaten this game countless times on both Regular and Expert difficulty, and I've even completed it deathless, yet I still can't get enough of it. Every boss fight is so much fun , and mastering each boss is incredibly satisfying. I still come back to it from time to time, and that's actually why I uninstalled it. If I keep Cuphead installed on my PC, I end up playing it instead of trying other games. That's how addictive and enjoyable it is for me. I only wish I could experience another game like Cuphead again in my lifetime. 10/10 a masterpiece that every gamer should play at least once.
Game took me hostage and wouldn't let me go until i beat it without taking damage. The game didn't feed me and didn't give me water. Overall 10/10 really fun and addicting
Amazing art. Fun gameplay, but the difficulty is old school NES level. Grinded for hours to beat the game, just to find out it was the first world. :'D
