5:58 This is why mugman is blue and cuphead is red. While red is a warm color that pops out, blue does not pop out as much. And companies(like PayPal)use the color in their logo to appear trustworthy. While red is used by companies(like McDonalds) use the color in their logo to appear fun.

Yes. Thank you
When I first saw a video about it on KZread, I thought this game is based on an old cartoon already existing, but now I know all the artwork was made manually and so many characters and environments were developed for this masterpiece.
Even if you’re a person who doesn’t rage at games, you’re still gonna rage at cuphead.
I knew from the start that flatlife was gonna be big. You just could just feel it you know it’s great to see how far you have come.

What a well structured and informative video. Great work! Love learning more about the game and the Moldenhauer bros!
I find it very interesting how all the animations were done by hand it’s a good throw back to 1930’s cartoons but I never knew it took about 10 years for the game to come out due to that you could say it’s almost how Squid Game was made because the director had a 10 year journey being rejected by multiple Korean studios

Putting this into consideration, the DLC was probably worked on for 5 years, that’s why it released 5 years after the game came out

It's rare to see that form of art work anymore.
cuphead doesnt seem like my type of game but i see why people could like it! its amazing how hard they worked on it!!
Another thing the Parry Slap can do (this is coming from someone who REALLY can’t beat the first dang level, even with 2 players): It can revive the other player if you make contact, yet the more you try revive your mug or cup sibling, the quicker the ghost rises.
These brothers deserve the love and respect for all the hard work they've done. I love Cuphead, and will always love it!!!!!! 😍🙏😃👍

Although I like cuphead I think other games with more copies deserved their own shows like bendy
Beating some bosses gets annoying at times, but I can't stop loving this game! I'm glad to find out how much they invested on it (physically, emotionally and monetarily) through this excellent video.
If you play on the nintendo switch and you wanna get the black-and-white feature faster than to do all the levels as a pacifist just do this, go to your system settings go to change color and put it to grayscale or inverted you can get special effects color swaps
For those who are confused, development started in 2010. The game was finally released in 2017.

A good idea, dedication and a bunch of talented people. Its rly an amazing game
I remember seeing it before E3 2015 and knowing everything was hand drawn and knowing that I had to have it. 2023 I finally have it because I was waiting for a physical release and the dlc included on switch. I came so close to buy it on pc in 2017.
I've loved this game ever since it was released. As someone who loves those old cartoons, I was smiling like an idiot when it was released
cuphead is one of the first indie games to have its own animated series which makes it like the god of indie games
"Ribby and Croaks are the only 2 characters in the game" Pip and Dot: are we a joke to you?
Nice video. It is nice to see a video that covers the history of a game that is not just clips from stages with the time it was made on the bottom and this is it.
Ms. Chalice does give some great Elenor Powell vibes. She is one hell of a great female character

Me and my brother have the same similarities to the creators of Cuphead. We both love 1930's cartoons, we love video games, and I love drawing! Also, we are too Canadian, which is purely coincidental. I ❤ Cuphead! 😊 🧚🏻♀️💥🪄🧸
Man, your videos are always so amazing and inspiring. My favorite one was The Evolution of Xbox.
Nice video of a nice game. Thank you for the effort. Inspires me to revisit the colorful world of Cuphead.
I love the Cuphead show! I’ve never played the game, but I have seen people play it my most favorite character besides, Cuphead, and mug man is chalice

Wow! It's such a lot of work to make this game. Thanks a lot for the video!
this is the result of a game where the makers actually loved doing what they do the money and fame came second unlike 99 percent of the AAA development teams
I finished the game and DLC today. Was a truly excellent game and I loved every minute of it 😃
Hope Alien solider gets another crack of a comeback one day as that was my first run and gun boss rush game then played Cuphead of course so felt very similar but different in their own unique ways ✨🎩
16:06 actually the first half of that fight was inspired by the silly symphony hells bells the second half was inspired by Fantasia. And when you beat the devil you get a trophy called swing you sinners which is a reference to the Max Fletcher cartoon
Imagine how proud you would be, if you resume said “co-creator of cup head” This game is ART. Visually and musically. Master fucking piece
Fun fact dude missed: If you say yes to the devils question at the end cuphead and mugman will become evil monster versions more than likely pissing off elder kettle
Djimmi the great isn’t the only 5 phase one. Hilda berg has her regular phase, her Taurus phase, her Sagittarius phase, her Gemini phase, and her moon phase
Im surprised Cuphead has 3 seasons in one year
This is so good I even watched your car evolution series was worth it subscribing to you
Really nice!! Love cuphead
Fun fact, Medusa actually got her head chopped off from another character in the story and she was still alive after she lost her head! That’s why medusa had just a head. (The more you know)
I started watching this dude at 100k. He got more than 250,000 now. Congrats!
Love your vids keep them up
Amazing content!
I started this game a few days ago. It is hard but fair in my opinion and wow the art style is really incredible!
And to think their Jazz ensemble topped the billboard charts, man who made the music for that?
Flatlife NEEDS 1 million subs.
Such a humble beginning to a amazing game and wholesome story
Man what heartwarming story and risk that Chad and Jared did to make this game even remortgage their houses for this monster size game entirely made by hand nothing fancy wow those 2 have a very big heart and committed making this awsome game😊
I Like Evolution. Keep going Don't quit
Yay another good Video by flatlife
Your vids are really good!!
I just realized this. Cuphead and mugman represent the brothers (sorta) while chalice represents Marija
Thnx for the video
Man I love the video can u please do more of these indie game documentary
I love Cuphead

Carney existed before Daisy
It’s a nice touch that the narrator mentions the cake quote being attributed to Marie Antoinette and not said by her. While I do not believe that she did or didn’t say it, multiple sources state that she may not have said anything of the sort in her lifetime.
My man will not stop repeating that it was hand-drawn like early Disney animation.
Amazing 🤩
It was created in 2017 and updated in 2022. A show came around the same year as THE DLC.
Now we have Cuphead The Delicious Last Course DLC
I watch cuphead show every day
We need cuphead on a arcade machine
A more unique than rare masterpiece!
“Beppy the Clown. Wally warbles.” The way he said it just makes me chuckle a bit /pos
Cuphead is the best game ever I'm happy it got a show
I think the root pack was based on The Three Stooges. The potato is Moe, the onion is Curly & the carrot is Larry.
And it was great game and brilliant design. If they do a 3D one. I just hope they stay true to the games main core mechanics.
Judging by the game play I can tell someone on your team, or you yourself, played cuphead without too much prior knowledge. Considering it’s difficulty, I’m thoroughly impressed that you stuck with it
I didn't know cuphead was made the year I was alive i still watch the show!!!!!
Nice video, I barely knew anything about Cuphead, and now I wanna get into it.
I love you flatlife
ayo i sub at u your 50k and now your 300K you've grown so fast

1 Tip: RENAME THE VIDEO! The Name let it seem like one of thousands of Videos that just shows about 10 sec of Gameplay from early Versions of the game. Videos that even I can make in about 1 or 2 hours. Closely I wouldn't have watched the video because of it. I just though OK, why not it kills 13min. But your video is way more then this.... way way more, and the title should reflect this. "The Creation history of Cuphead" would maybe fit.
Love it
Speaking of cuphead in super smash bros ultimate in the Nintendo E shop you can get the cuphead bundle for the Mii fighter and it's only 0.75 Cents
