I don't think it's ever been used with positive connotation. It strips all the hard work from a work of art, especially when that work of art is actually pretty good on it's own. In terms of the modern dictionary definition, yes it is a "ripoff," but that's not inherently a bad thing. There are games in this industry that deserve to be called a ripoff with all the negative connotation, but this is not one of them. While I was browsing this community of threads talking about Enchanted Portals, I was saddened to see how negative people were about Enchanted Portals. They were almost offended by the fact that it was copying Cuphead's direction.
It's a weird level of consumer-entitlement where people were actually offended that another developer was copying their favourite game's art-style/gameplay. As someone who loved Cuphead's style/gameplay, I'd love to see more developers copy this style. It's relatively new in gaming and wouldn't mind seeing more developers/corporations cash in on the trend. In the gaming industry, there is no finite space. Encouraging "Enchanted Portals" will not take away future installments of Cuphead. In fact, Cuphead sequels will probably be better because now there's some competition.Īlso, the developers of EP also stated on their social media pages that they're avid fans of Cuphead. but if you're going to ripoff a game where its art style is a huge selling point, you better do. They KNOW it's a copy of Cuphead's style.Įnchanted Portals was animated by 1 person. Enchanted Portals - Kickstarter Extended Trailer. The development team is quite small, and there's definitely some work to be done.
ENCHANTED PORTALS RIPOFF SERIES
Cuphead was released two years ago, but its still very much in the attention of the media, as there is a Cuphead animated series being developed by Netflix. Instead of dismissing it as simply a ripoff, I think it's more productive to give tips on how they could amp themselves up to be on Cuphead's level of quality. The real reason why fans believe Enchanted Portals is stealing from Cuphead is due to its aesthetics, as it uses the same 30s cartoon style, except with a fantasy twist.
ENCHANTED PORTALS RIPOFF TV
In what they've showed, it doesn't have a 1930's tv filter like Cuphead. It looks too modern and filterless at the moment. The artstyle is better complimented with a grainer effect. There's a level where they fight a 3 headed dog, a chihuahua being one of them.
