7/28/2023 0 Comments Enchanted portals ps4![]() Many fans knew the Windows Store exclusivity for the computer versions will not last long, before Cuphead gets a release in both Steam and GOG.Follow the Leader: Surprisingly got an imitator in the form of another indie game, Enchanted Portals.The devs have confirmed that this was animation was meant to transition from a scrapped phase to what is now phase 2 of the fight the scrapped phase became the secret boss in the DLC. It resembles the art used for his second Game Over card and in the secret boss of The Delicious Last Course, his skeleton is in the same pose holding up the level's platform. The Devil boss fight has an unused animation where he holds out his hands.Wide Shot has been reimplemented in the Delicious Last Course as the new shot type, "Converge". There are also unique weapons that can only be accessed through the debug menu as well, such as the Arc (which launches projectiles in an arc similar to the Lobber, which would then stick to the ground and act as mines), the Exploder (behaves like the Peashooter, but with a slower rate of fire and dealing more damage the farther it travels, which also has an EX attack which deals a lot of damage, but can also bounce back and damage the player), and the Wide Shot (which behaves like the Spreader, but has a longer range).Pachinko features fully-drawn and animated sprites for the boss (as well as a unique quote on the player's death, but no portrait), but the boss' attacks and much of the stage itself is made up of placeholder graphics, Light is made up of simplistic placeholder graphics (including some kind of bird creature and Jared Moldenhauer's head), and Card is made up of even cruder placeholder graphics and can't be beaten due to the boss not having a hitbox. Of particular note are three bosses from King Dice's Boss Bonanza that can be accessed through the debug menu, called "Pachinko", "Light", and "Card". Numerous bosses were cut from the game, but data for some of them can still be found in the game's code.Doing It for the Art: The Moldenhauer brothers re-mortgaged their houses to make this game before getting backing from Microsoft.Finally, the entirety of "The King's Leap" is based on the "Airship" concept for the original game, being a series of parry challenge levels that earn you more coins.Another example from the DLC, as stated in in-code notes, is the secret Nightmare fight, which was originally the second phase for the Devil before being scrapped the unused sprite of the Devil holding out his hands was actually part of the transition animation from this phase to his second phase in the actual game. ![]() The gramophone phase of the fight is a finalized version of the scrapped "DicePalaceLight" boss that originally could only be accessed via debug mode. ![]() The spider gangster's design was reworked from a giant spider boss (dubbed 'The Flying Gentleman') showcased in early magazine showings of Cuphead, even having a forked tongue and a bright red nose.The DLC level "Bootlegger Boogie" features two examples.note Interestingly, the end bars of the song are still used as the victory fanfare for completing a stage. Additionally, an alternate opening theme can be found in the game's files, which reveals what the original plot of the game likely was (apparently Cuphead originally entered a fighting tournament, instead of fighting to collect Soul Contracts).As discussed on the What Could Have Been subpage, "Coin-Op Bop", "High Score", and "The Airship" belong to cut levels, while "Hurry Up" was likely related to the cut time limit. On the official soundtrack, the tracks "Hurry Up", "Coin-Op Bop", "High Score", and "The Airship" are never heard in-game.Likewise, Sally Stageplay was voiced by a man. Cross-Dressing Voices: King Dice's singing voice is provided by a woman, Alana Bridgewater.Content Leak: The PS4 port's icon appeared on PSN stores a day before its official unveiling.Somewhat downplayed since the DLC, which adds a more diverse array of songs inspired by a variety of genres from the '30s and '40s, including another song inspired by Brazilian music: "Snow Cult Scuffle", which skews closer to choro than samba. ![]() Despite this, it's quite different stylistically from the rest of the soundtrack, as it's a samba song inspired by Duke Ellington's "Caravan" and the works of Carmen Miranda, rather than the more traditional big band swing of the rest of the soundtrack.
