Salutations folks!!

It has been a little over 2 weeks since the launch of our Cuphead expansion The Delicious Last Course, and we come bearing the tastiest treat of them all…bug fixes!! In seriousness, we want to thank our wonderful Steam Community for the insightful comments and Community threads chronicling your early experiences with DLC. In addition to being humbled by your kind words, we’ve been keeping our ears to the ground and our eyes in the sky (quite the painful separation) to monitor reports of bugs and technical issues.

The result is a delectable patch, fresh out of the oven for PC and Mac, which contains the fixes outlined below:

• Revised DLC completion % calculations to better reflect completed progress in the DLC.
  
• Fixed bug which caused DLC’s final boss to get locked into certain animations, preventing proper phase progression.
  
• Fixed bug which caused the Esther Winchester boss to get locked into certain animations, preventing proper phase progression.
  
• Fixed rare bug which caused the Sally Stageplay boss to get locked into certain animations, preventing proper phase progression.
  
• Fixed bug preventing boss title cards from rendering when using EU Spanish language.
  
• Adjusted “Hearty” achievement to unlock more consistently.
  
• Fixed rare bug preventing NPC from giving players coins.
  
• Removed unintended Soul Contract from displaying after defeating the King Dice boss.
  
• Adjusted scoring conditions for “HP” score on result screen to allow for more consistent and clear scoring. Player HP score is now solely calculated based on remaining HP upon completing a fight.
  
• Fixed rare bug which resulted in players losing controller functionality while in Porkrind’s Shop.
  
• Fixed bug causing Super Art II for Ms. Chalice and Cuphead/Mugman to function improperly after the DLC’s final boss phase 1-2 transition.
  
• Fixed other erroneous player states after DLC final boss phase 1-2 transition.
  
• Fixed bug causing Ms. Chalice to remain active in levels despite removing the Astral Cookie charm in post-death equip menu.
  
• Fixed bug allowing player to equip and use other charms while still playing as Ms. Chalice.
  
• Fixed bug causing Ms. Chalice’s jumping parry collision to not function when near ground collision surfaces in some instances.
  
• Fixed minor animation issue with Ms. Chalice during the phase 1-2 transition of The Devil boss.
  
• Fixed bug in King of Games Queen boss fight allowing cannonball to spawn after player dies.
  
• Fixed bug preventing Glumstone’s phase 1 ground spike gnomes from activating for Player 2.
  
• Fixed bug preventing parrying pink moonshine barrel enemies in the Moonshine Mob boss from counting towards “Parry” category for scoring.
  
• Fixed bug allowing players to push Wally Warbles boss completely off screen during Phase 3.
  
• Fixed rare bug preventing proper progression through DLC’s introductory cutscene.
  
• Fixed rare issues with character collision on Inkwell Isle IV map.
  
• Fixed rare issues with character collision on returning to map from certain boss fights.
  
• Fixed rare bug preventing HP from properly carrying over between King Dice encounters.
  
• Fixed bug causing objects parried after defeating a boss to sometimes contribute to the “Parry” category for scoring.
  
• Fixed rare bug causing visual errors on post-death equip menu.
  
• Fixed visual layout of control mapping screen for non-16:9 aspect ratios.
  
• Fixed various typos and misspellings in DLC game credits.
  
• Various audio & SFX tweaks, fixes, and additions.
  
• Various minor animation fixes and tweaks.

As well, we were recently flabbergasted and flummoxed to announce that in just under two weeks after launch, The Delicious Last Course went on to go platinum, selling a million units. We can’t thank you enough for your support, and hope you have a swell day (and a swell battle)!

Well hello there!

It’s surreal to be able to say this, but the time is here at last…The Delicious Last Course expansion launches tomorrow. We cannot wait for the wonderful Cuphead community on Steam to set sail for this new adventure, experience the story of brand new playable character Ms. Chalice, and take on some of the biggest and wildest boss battles we’ve ever created!

In preparation for tomorrow, we have released a small but important update which contains some necessary code adjustments to allow the base game to function with the DLC on launch day. However, keen players will also notice a small but highly requested quality of life improvement — the ability to swap your weapon loadout from the “Retry” screen of a boss battle instead of having to back out to the map to do so!

As we look back on the road to release, we can’t thank everyone enough for their kindness, patience, and continued support. Now, there’s nothing left to do but prepare your appetite…for adventure!!

We hope everyone is having a swell time with Cuphead 1.2, enjoying the chance to play as Mugman or exploring the Inkwell Isles in a brand new language.

This patch specifically addresses two issues across PC & Mac:

• Fixed macOS crashing on boot experience for users of Macs that don't support Metal. The game should now boot and run properly across the full range of Macs that support the game's minimum specifications!

• Fixed minor Baroness Von Bon Bon mini jawbreaker bug in which several enemies would stutter while moving for those playing on a high refresh rate monitor.

Hi folks!! We're excited to announce that we've just released our biggest (c)update ever in the form of Cuphead 1.2, on both PC and Mac. It's packed to the gills with a bevy of brand new features such as:

• CHARACTER SELECTION! For the first time ever, select Mugman right from the start of your adventure in single player!

• FULLY ANIMATED CINEMATICS! Now, all of the game’s cutscenes play out in fabulous locomotion!

• FULLY LOCALIZED TEXT IN ELEVEN ADDITIONAL LANGUAGES! In addition to English, we’re thrilled to be able to offer Cuphead in French, Italian, German, European Spanish, Latin Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Russian, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese. We know how long folks have been waiting for this, so we took special care in the quality of each translation, and curated fonts that felt just right for each audience. In fact, we even partnered with expert calligraphers to bring the Boss & Level title lettering to life in Korean, Chinese, and Japanese – drawing inspiration from the early cartoon works of each country!

• OODLES OF BRAND NEW ANIMATION AND ART! Cuphead and Mugman have multiple fight intros! Legendary Chalice now grants Super Arts with a blast of magical energy! Mummies explode in a shower of confetti! Dozens of other dazzling additions and adjustments throughout the game!

• Bug fixes and tweaks!

• And more!

Note: In order to bring you all of these new features and enhancements, we've had to update Cuphead to a newer version of Unity. Accordingly, this new version of Unity doesn't support DX9, so all of the new updates and forthcoming DLC will only work with this new exclusively-DX11 version of Cuphead.

If you need to play Cuphead under DX9, we have made a DX9 branch of the game available under the Betas tab in the Properties window. By selecting "legacy- 1.1.5 DX9" version of the game, you will get the exact version of Cuphead that existed right before this new content update went live. Please note that this version will not contain any of the new Free Content Update features, nor will it work with the upcoming DLC.

This patch specifically addresses the following bugs in the Mac version of Cuphead:

• Added or fixed controller compatibility with the following gamepads: Steam Controller, Xbox One Controllers connected via Bluetooth, and Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.

• Please Note: For the Nintendo Switch Pro controller, you will need to enable support in Steam under Settings > Controller.

• In addition, avoid syncing the Switch Pro controller if the Steam Controller is enabled at the same time, as this will cause a known conflict.

To all those newly discovering the Inkwell Isles on Mac - we hope you're having a wonderful Cuphead experience!

We’ve seen the posts. We’ve heard the requests. Now, at long last, the day has finally arrived to make good on our promise: Cuphead is available on Mac. What’s more, we’re putting the game on sale through this weekend!

To our Mac-inclined friends: your patience and enthusiasm has been much appreciated, and we can’t wait for you to share your own stories of your time exploring the Inkwell Isles. To mark the occasion, we’ve prepared a little short that we’re (appropriately) calling Crisp Apples. Enjoy!

We are extremely excited to be able to finally announce Cuphead’s new expansion DLC, The Delicious Last Course[www.cupheadgame.com]

We’ve been hard at work cooking up a brand new isle full of delectable adventures for Cuphead and Mugman to gnaw on, with a dollop of new weapons, a dash of new charms, and giant helping of spicy new bosses. At the centerpiece of this feast is the premiere of Ms. Chalice, a new playable character with a brand new twist on the classic Cuphead move set.

Serving up a free-range, locally sourced, artisanal meal like this one takes some time, so The Delicious Last Course will be in the oven until 2019.

• Fixed soft lock when the player parries and dies at the same time
• Fixed issue where game appears in a tiny resolution
• Fixed rare issue where loading screen plays forever
• Fixed Cagney Carnation face attack so it consistently has proper anticipation cue timing

Additionally, we are now offering a "Legacy" branch of Cuphead under the Betas tab in the properties window. The Legacy branch of Cuphead will be the exact launch build of Cuphead, with no applied patches and no future support. It contains all of the exploits and bugs of the launch version and is available for those who prefer to play that version. WARNING - Switching to the Legacy version of Cuphead may corrupt or erase your present saves. The Legacy version and Current version of Cuphead share the same pool of saves and moving between the two of them has a high probability of corrupting or erasing your present Cuphead saves. StudioMDHR offers no present or future support for the Legacy version of Cuphead. Use it at your own risk.

Hello friends,

Where has the time gone? We've been hard at work over the last couple of months squashing bugs, fixing exploits, and even doing a little bit of gameplay balance tuning. Thank you all for your patience, kindness, and support. We wouldn't be here without you.
