Looking for more hardcore boss fights and platforming action? Well a Cuphead like title from Xixo Games Studio might be a good fit then.
The developer revealed a Kickstarter campaign for Enchanted Portals – which they hope to bring to Nintendo Switch. One of the main draws of the project is that it will feature similar graphics and gameplay to the popular Cuphead.Â

The response to this trailer, however, has been far from all positive. Many fans are now debating, arguing whether Enchanted Portals borrows a bit too much from Cuphead.Â
On one end, many accused the game of ripping off Cuphead’s animations completely – with some fans upset that it didn’t do enough to differentiate itself as something original.
Xixo Games about Enchanted Portals
Yes, of course Cuphead was a huge inspiration for Enchanted Portals. We’re both avid fans and we wanted to make something similar, but always from a place of respect and admiration for the original. We were prepared for some backlash, but the trailer definitely reached way more people than we could ever anticipate, and all the hate and negativity coming our way has definitely had a huge impact on us.
That being said, along with all those negative responses, a lot of people have also reached out to us to say they adore the game and they would love to see it succeed. So we’re trying to turn our attention more towards all those who are supporting us and sending their love for the game.
Does Enchanted Portals take too much from Cuphead? Is it fine that they’re really similar? Would you like to see the game on Nintendo Switch?
If so be sure to checkout their Kickstarter when it becomes available on October 24th.
