'''Cuphead Piracy intro''' was a [[screamer]] video uploaded by MinecraftMasterDude in 2018, the video states that the lore of the run-and-gun video game ''[[wikipedia:Cuphead|Cuphead]]'' is behind the lyrics.


== Context for the Screamer (SPOILERS AHEAD) ==
The video contains a still image of the main menu as the pirated track plays. As implied, the uploader does tag the appropriate lyrics, such as "You Stole!". However, after 57 seconds, a yellow and purple-tinted picture of the Devil appears along with a distorted version of the Golden Freddy scream from the first ''[[Wikipedia:Five Nights at Freddy's|Five Nights at Freddy's]]''.  
Unlike your traditional "reversed" screamers, this one is a little bit more clever in how it's set up.  


Prior to the games' release on GOG (a DRM free gaming service), some PC gamers pirated the game and were met with an anti-piracy detection, where the game's main theme would be replaced with a rather disturbing track (dubbed by fans as "You paid the price"), where disturbing music would play alongside quiet whispers. Possibly as an attempt to unsettle the pirate for not buying. There are NO screamers in the pirated copy, however:
Before the games' release on [[wikipedia:GOG.com|GOG.com]] (a DRM-free gaming service operated by GOG [[wikipedia:Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością|sp. z o.o.]], a wholly-owned subsidiary of [[wikipedia:CD Projekt|CD Projekt]]), some PC gamers pirated the game and were met with an [[wikipedia:Anti-piracy|Anti-piracy]] detection, where the game's main theme would be replaced with a rather disturbing track (dubbed by fans as "You paid the price"), a piece of disturbing music would play alongside whispers. Possibly as an attempt to unsettle the pirate for not buying.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B95RnfjzO8s</ref>

<nowiki> </nowiki>In the LEGAL copy of the game, at the end, if you decide to sign the devil's contract, the player's game would end and the main game's theme would be reversed.
== Trivia ==
*There are no [[screamers]] in the pirated copy; however, in the legal copy of the game, in the end, if the player decides to sign the devil's contract, the game would receive a bad ending featuring an evil version of Cuphead and Mugman, and the main game's theme would be reversed.

In 2018, YouTuber user MinecraftMasterDude uploaded a video titled " CupHead piracy intro reversed with lyrics", '''possibly''' luring fans and those interested in anti-piracy measures, into believing that upon beating the pirated game, you'd have a reversed-pirated theme much like the legal game.

In MinecraftMasterDude's video, he has a still picture of the Cuphead menu while the pirated track plays. As implied, the uploader does tag the appropriate lyrics (such as "You Stole!"), however at 0:57, a picture of the Devil from Cuphead, pops up with an insanely loud, ear rape, scream. After that, the video ends.
