      Cuphead is a completely different artstyle. Unlike that game, this isn't based on Fleischer Studios art. This is a stylised, contemporary look. It is apples and oranges to compare the two.
      Also playing as opposed to just watching is a different vibe altogether.

    Really seems like a fun game. A shame Disney isn’t pushing their Mickey IP more, could be a sleeper hit. At the very least, another cult classic

      There's a lot of sleeper disney games tbh. Like the DS version of Alice in Wonderland, which is honestly fantastic, unlike the bigger console versions, or the movie (possibly because it took massive liberties with the actual story and characterization)

    Seems like a fine entry-level metroidvania. I have zero interest in playing it, but it might be a great introduction for younger players to the genre.

    I wasn't too sure about this game when I saw it announced - after Disney Dreamlight Valley left me kinda disappointed, I was hesitant about Illusion Island and passed on a pre-order. But listening to Jirard talk so positively about it, I may have to give a try!

    I wasn't sure on this game, but when I saw this video go live with the title it has I knew I had to snag it.
    And I'm glad I did. It was quite enjoyable. I'm still working through Iron Mouse on my own (almost to Boss #2!) but I've enjoyed it. The humor was spot-on as well.
    I'm also really looking forward to seeing speedruns of this game because it's built for it. Especially with those multiplayer abilities.

    This looks like a fun game I could see playing with the kids. Having the easy-to-adjust difficulty with the health system is nice for letting younger players still feel like a part of the experience. And I do love Mickey games, like Mickey Mania and Epic Mickey (and Kingdom Hearts, though less Mickey focused 😜). I’ll have to give this one a go!

    There was a new update that includes obstacle courses. I’m wondering if that changes beating it to 100%? I just beat the game yesterday and although I’ve collected everything I’m not at 100%. I’m not sure if you have to get gold at all of the obstacle courses now of course I didn’t beat iron Mickey either I was just trying to get the gold statue in the game.

  • @tacoman6697

    For much of this video, I kept feeling an underlying sentiment that "easy is bad," as well as a (perceived) implication that being a Disney adult and having that existing attachment was the main thing that made playing this game a worthwhile experience. I just wanna say, mindsets like these frustrate me. Easy games can be great too. From what I can tell, had this game not been based on the Mickey Mouse IP at all, it still would be a great game, but the way you spoke about it almost made it feel like if you don't care about Disney at all, this game has nothing for you. That just kinda got under my skin is all, since this game looks so fun. Thanks for the video though, it's good, my mentioned sore points aside.
