12 Things The Cuphead Show Changed From The Video Game

The Cuphead video game came out in 2017, and gamers were thrilled with the production value and competency of this indie-made game, containing hand-drawn animation and a thrilling, vibrant soundtrack. While the game had an animation style that was an ode to more adult-oriented animation and themes, Netflix saw the designs as a good basis for a children’s program. There have been many video game adaptations over the years, but this one is certainly a unique one, a game coming from a team unwilling to compromise in their vision leading to a product with a strong enough brand to be turned into a serialized show. But in that change, some things needed to be fine tuned for a change in audience, as a children’s show requires a different approach than a simple shoot ‘em up story about two cups saving their souls. Today, we’re going to go over some of the big changes Cuphead has gone through from game to Netflix series, including character changes like the ones done to the Root Pack, Ms. Chalice, King Dice, The Devil, Elder Kettle, Grim Flintlock, and more. We’ll alos discuss changes made to the iconic animation style from the game as well as changes to the music and scores the brand has become infamous for. Whether you’re a huge Cuphead fan looking for some discussion, an avid animation enjoyer, or just a sucker for adaptations, this video has something for you! So Strap in as we go over some of the biggest changes Cuphead made from game console to streaming service!
