In other recent posts, regarding the backlash, Xixo has attempted to address the Cuphead controversy, claiming that the similarities are due to Enchanted Portals being so heavily inspired by it, as opposed to being an attempted clone or competitor to the game. As a result, the Enchanted Portals campaign has been delayed indefinitely, pending negotiation results to determine if the crowdsourcing will even be necessary. This could mean that Xixo can instead focus solely on development as opposed to splitting its attention between the game and the Kickstarter rewards that would have come with the campaign. The Facebook post details that Xixo is in the middle of negotiations with an unnamed publisher that might be able to fund Enchanted Portals without the need for a Kickstarter campaign.
