So whenever I quit the game, it freezes up and needs to be killed via Task Manager. Is anyone else seeing the same issue?

Having the same issue. Was using a wireless Xbox One controller; saw some people had issues with the wired controller so maybe its something about these controllers?

I had the same issue the first time playing the game. after that it never crashed on me

I'm using the wireless Xbox One controller too, running over Bluetooth.

Oddly though, the issue went away after the first few hours. Bizarre.

Same problem here, try to put enter on your keyboard when exit the game.

I'm getting these crashes in the Rollercoaster boss. Playing with both Xbox 360 and Xbox one controllers at the same time.

I just beat the Bird boss using the same setup and didn't get a single crash

I had the same problem on Windows 10 with Galaxy. Quitting the game in any fashion would cause it to hang until someone killed it. Galaxy would think the game was still running, hence denying me from starting it again. Cloud sync failed and game time did not advance, which was annoying. Therefore it would be nice if someone could look into this.

However, I configured Cuphead.exe to run in Windows 8 compatibility mode, which fixed the issue for me.

Edit: Never mind; still happening, even in compatibility mode.

Havin' the same issue here.

Me too, whenever I quit the game with the gamepad it hangs, if I quit using the keyboard it exits fine.

Yeah, it's become a habit to kill the game through task manager or any other way besides the ingame "quit" option. It did crash randomly once though (this isn't a reoccuring issue though).
