Gameplay tips

Cuphead's boss fights are choreography: every attack has a wind-up, a tell, and a safe window. Treat each attempt as data collection. On run one, survive. On run two, name the phases. On run three, decide where you will stand during each attack before it starts.

Choose the weapon that fits the fight, not the favorite. Spread clears waves; peashooter snipes moving weak points; charge rewards patience on grounded bosses. Swap ex-moves between phases if a particular burst solves your problem attack.

Parry the pink only when the alternative is worse; a missed parry is often a lost run, while a missed shot is just damage. Between fights, buy the charm that covers your specific weakness rather than a general upgrade. Bosses in the browser build keep their patterns faithfully, so muscle memory earned here is real.
