Cuphead Secret boss fights

After downloading the 1.2 Update, complete the indicated task to fight the corresponding secret boss:

    Secret Boss 1 – Little Radish (The Root Pack): Go to Isle 1 and fight The Root Pack. During the battle, defeat the Potato but do not attack the Onion that appears after him. After a certain amount of time has passed, a Radish will instead appear. The Radish will appear with the Carrot for the final round.

    Secret Boss 2 – Puppet Cuphead (Djimmi The Great): Go to Isle 2 and fight Djimmi The Great. Once you reach the third round, transform your airplane into the smallest form. Djimmi will reveal a Puppet Cuphead that fights alongside him in the end of the fight.

    Secret Boss 3 – Sally’s Sweetheart (Sally Stageplay): Go to Isle 3 and fight Sally Stageplay. During the first round, parry off the heart-kisses to jump onto the cherub angel platforms on the left/right corners of the arena. Stand on the cherub until you hear a cracking sound effect. Then, stand on the opposite cherub angel, and both platforms will collapse. The stage will collapse and crush Sally’s paramour in the background. He will now appear in the final phase of the fight as a blue angel, helping her with attacks of his own.

2-Strip mode

Talk to the fork standing outside the shop in Inkwell Isle 3 to get a hint about getting A’s in the game. Get mostly “A” grades for all the Boss fights on the “Checklist” (a few “B” grades are acceptable). Then, talk to the fork again to unlock the “2-Strip” filter, which changes the display to a two strip limited color palette.

Black & White filter and Vintage mode

Talk to the turtle sitting on the dock in Inkwell Isle 3 to get a hint about seeing the game in gray. This is referring to completing the platforming levels with a “Pacifist” rank (do not shoot any enemies). The following are the six platforming levels:

    Forest Follies
    Treetop Trouble
    Funfair Fever
    Funhouse Fazzle
    Perilous Piers
    Rugged Ridge

You must complete each platforming level without shooting an enemy using your gun; however, supers that grant invincibility, dashing, and parrying are allowed. Use the smoke bomb to move past enemies untouched and the invincibility super to get past bosses. Also, use your parry to defeat enemies and build your super. Successfully complete a platforming level without shooting an enemy to get a “P” grade and have the flag outside have a “P” on it. Successfully complete all six platforming levels with a “P” grade, then talk to the turtle again to unlock the “Black & White” filter (changes the display to black and white, giving a more 1930s retro style) and Vintage mode (alters the audio).

Expert mode

Successfully complete the game to unlock the Expert difficulty.

Alternate endings

Successfully complete the indicated task once you fight The Devil at the end of the game to unlock the corresponding ending:

    Bad Cuphead ending: Start fighting The Devil, and agree to give him the Soul Contracts when asked during the opening cutscene. In this ending, both Cuphead and Mughead are seen having gone insane and are rotting in hell with The Devil.

    Good Cuphead ending: Start fighting The Devil, but choose not to give him the Soul Contracts when asked during the opening cutscene. Then, defeat The Devil to view the “Good Cuphead” ending. In this ending, you run home and tell everyone they are now safe. Everyone is happy in the ever after.
