Cuphead lead game director Jared Moldenhauer recently explained why the run and gun action game is so challenging, highlighting Studio MDHR's commitment to creating an experience that they would want to play.
"From the beginning we were like, 'We want this to be a game that we would really like to look at, that we would really like to play, and more of an homage to the older era too, which means the difficulty has to be somewhat challenging,'" Jared said on the latest episode of our monthly interview show IGN Unfiltered.
Once they settled on that design philosophy, Jared said they watched people play the game to determine the capabilities of other players and whether or not something was too difficult. He noted that watching fans play the game at events was quite helpful in this regard, and that he and art director Chad Moldenhauer have several friends who play games they were able to gather feedback from as well.
