It is a good game, I can recommend it to platformers lovers.
But this game had a bad luck that I played it shortly after playing Hollow Knight, which annihilates it in every aspect. Cuphead is basically only boss fights and is heavily focused on dodging bullet hells and not that much on dealing the damage itself with its long range and sometimes even auto-aiming weapons, so even the combat was not that rewarding and interesting as in HK, while the combat is only just a part of HK.
Not a big fan of Cuphead's soundtrack, but the animation style is a big advantage
It is known for its notoriously high difficulty, but I think that is exaggerated. Whole playthrough takes about 10 hours on average and hardest fights are gonna be not much more than an hour, which does not sound that bad, does it? Even getting all 28 achievements was not that big of a deal (25 hours in total for me). However if you want to S-rank everything... Well, good luck, that's indeed a big challenge
