The game's biggest problem for me, fundamentally, is that it is designed under the 'classic' principle of trial and error. Numerous times you'll be killed by things you had no way to avoid, bar replaying the level and knowing they're coming. The level design forces death upon you, depending on pure memorisation rather than giving players the chance to react on the fly and survive. You've got to really love learning patterns through repetition to enjoy Cuphead.
