I just realised, when the Devil calls out 'snake eyes' then slams his hand down in the prologue, has anyone made the correlation between that moment in the prologue to that of the scene in The Nightmare Before Christmas when Oogie Boogie rolled 'snake eyes' then slammed his hand down (though in that scene he slammed his hand down to change the numbers from double 1 to the combined total of 11)? In fact, that entire moment when the Devil offered Cuphead one more roll of the dice made me think about that scene in TNBC. Enjoy this food for thought folks

[@nickichambers9328]

I'm pretty certain those dice were loaded and/or cursed. Why? A) Instead of allowing the boys to roll the dice they usually rolled (white with black dots, I think. I may be wrong.), the devil held out very different dice. B) The devil is kinda like the embodiement of evil, so cheating wouldn't be too out of place.

[@cutesweetidiotsarah7110]

Old cartoons and movies that were drawn on paper were the absolute BEST! It feels so different and looks a lot more polished if drawn because it catches people's eye more and had an actual ''style'' of art towards it. (At least for me) That's why Cuphead was such a good game to me. And the characters and sound effects just took it to the next level.

Grim matchstick’s name is a reference to animator Grim natwick (or however you spell it) and the studder at the end screen when you die you the dragon will have lines that studder, just like grim natwick

[@MJN_SEIFER]

This should be in more of the Cuphead fun facts videos (I have only ever seen it in the comments), because I find it to be a cool fact, and some good trivia. It's pretty cool, in my opinion, that they not only took inspiration from the animation, but seemingly checked out the credits of the cartoons for inspiration as well.

it's not essence, it's moonshine, in the 1930's (during the pro ambition era) animators for the golden age of cartoons would make moonshine a white color because moonshine is naturally clear, Also moonshine (or different kinds of alcohol) is considered as a drink of "courage" , lets say you got into a fight with someone and you need "courage" before the fight, you don't drink milk, you drink alcohol

[@jennywithlove1210]

[@d.j.w2600]

Ur dumb as well. The developers themselves said the liquid in their heads is the essence of their Souls. Mat pat isn't the games developer

[@terracraftfun9727]

The Essenes of Cupheads and mugs soul dose that mean mugman drinks his soul

[@dezybear7879]

...I.... guess? I thought it was moonshine

[@niftysupermario56]

*slurp*

[@sarahlilly1745]

TerraCraftFun yup

[@joeplayzgames2625]

Watching this 1 hour before the cuphead show releases. Shows how far we've gone.

[@Wembub_YT]

Fun fact: porkrind is the only character that can be seen outside a boss fight that talks

[@PapaNFL]

Sees thumbnail: oh just some cuphead facts Sees you should know: goodness I should know I have to close class this

[@pangletang]

10:15 I THOUGHT THE SNAKES ARE FROGS.

[@Kappen_Chap]

I did to

[@cannibalfish4166]

Same thing i'm an idiot

[@NG_Tree]

SAME!!!!!!

[@Cursingbow]

same here

[@the8bitgrandpashow282]

SAME

[@shmvlogs8668]

Great video I enjoyed learning about the game

[@tefi7393]

I think that a DLC fight took inspiration from the light boss at 14:13

[@sinisternightmare]

This game REALLY shows, how much love and work went into it.

[@iimuxnu]

11:38 HOW DID YOU DODGE ALL OF THOSE SHOTS

[@norbastii]

CelsoGaming {Rhythm games and more!} I don’t know if it’s no clip 😂 but if he did dodge them all that’s super impressive

[@oofmasterp4799]

Shrinky dink the plane that”s how

[@multi1446]

just git gud lol

[@autismtony2404]

16:52 The Mugman army glitch might’ve inspired the “and his pal Mugman” meme

[@GianisCruz]

I can imagine how happy those animators and producers of CupHead were when they finally finished making the game

[@Puppy_Puppington]

An artist is never done or finished with his art.

[@coni1793]

Watched this the day The Cuphead Show came out on Netflix!! They really weren't lying when they said more was to come! :D

[@regen3128]

14:12 heyyyy, wait a minute. We see that in the DLC!

[@TheVideoGuyfromOhio]

Fact Checks, it wasn't called "Evil Mickey Attacks Japan" the actual title is "Omocha Bako Shirizu Dai San Wa: Ehon Senkyuhyakusanjuroku Nen", much like Turkish Star Wars, the bootleg title has become SO synonymous, that it's simply the official title for the movie now, also it was from 1934, WWII hadn't started yet, and Mega Man was the 80s, not 90s, and Kamahamayha is from Dragon Ball, not Street Fighter

[@shane-xv7gy]

Also, everyone thinks the Cagney Carnation final stage things he shoots are pollen, but to me they look like dandelions

[@weaz3r379]

Popplio WinsAll BTW, there’s a common thought among gamers that Cagney Carnation is inspired by Flowey.

[@Sephelions]

ITH Productions I thought Cagney was made first? Cuphead was announced before Undertale, wasn't it?

[@cinnacakeart]

Skullynx Yep

[@sansgaming4942]

The sugerland shimmy is actually pac man by noise and also how the tiny blue jawbreaker follows him

[@Obsid_Ian43]

14:12 the one with the spining thing will soon be the spider boos fight in the dlc

[@foxloaf8843]

14:13 nice to see this get re-used in the moonshine mob fight

[@bubbles2215]

Ok but more than anything Rumor Honeybottoms feels like a shout out to Donkey Kong Country 2. The level design and even the scrolling and platforming mechanics are so similar to the bee levels and boss from that game.

[@ciberkid22]

I thought Dr.Kahl looked more like Dr. Wily from Mega Man because... look at the hair!

[@Ar0474]

I seriously love this game! I bought that 4 vinyl soundtrack as well as a funko pop of King Dice!

[@antisfoxes]

Me too!

[@kassiaactuallydraws9361]

There is a funko pop of King Dice o-O?

[@LeSpearow]

This game has been a masterpiece and is loved to this day. I wish there was a second game of Cuphead. It would be TONS of work, but it would be just purely amazing. This could evolve the Cuphead series to a whole new level.

[@nazarcus1097]

Pal go buy the DLC

[@LeSpearow]

@@nazarcus1097 this was 4 months ago, before the dlc came out

[@mishy_mix]

I have so much admiration from this piece of art of a game and its creators.
