I struggled with the exact same move in Cuphead training. I had the exact same reaction as the game journalist.

Were you not able to read the instructions on the wall?

My immense frustration was largely due to the fact that yes (of course) I was able to read the short instructions on the wall.

What I could not do (for more than 3 minutes straight, iirc) was execute those instructions in the proper manner to get Cuphead to do what I wanted.
