I think it would scratch some of your favorite itches by Fullofkittens 12/18/2018, 8:02pm PST
Indie studio - check
Bullet hell levels - check
Charming art style - check doesn't start to cover it
Controller-throwing difficulty - check
BONUS: the music is literally up there with the best game music in history

The main things that are probably keeping you away are A: it's not obscure and B: I don't know if you play with controllers(...?). If it's "A" then I strongly encourage you to set that aside; Studio MDHR is a family business with like a dozen employees, they got Microsoft backing but they are not a AAA studio. The art is truly astounding and every frame of it was handmade. If you never play with controllers, though, give it a pass.

Your comment about Ninja Gaiden versus Mega Man made me think you might appreciate it, it's one of those games where every boss is like a new arcade game that you have to learn (which I guess is more like Mega Man than Ninja Gaiden, so maybe you wouldn't like it after all?). Anyways the Fullofkittens login on Caltrops dot com is now a Cuphead fan account as you probably already knew. You're always out there trying to expose us to new fun: (if you play with a controller) I almost guarantee you will enjoy Cuphead.
