I liked it, still salt over them failing to deliver stretch goals, but it's a good game if viewed separate from that.

they're still working on 2 more campaigns, gender swap and battle mode. how did they fail to deliver?

I absolutely adore it, one of my favourite games to come out in a long time. You should play plague of shadows next, if you don't mind that it's the same levels with a new character

A 8-bit indie game that actually does the 8-bit gimmick well. Great platforming, great bosses, the story's not too important but what you're given about it is pretty good.

Also, the Plauge Knight DLC is damn good too. Same levels, but it does change some things with story, dialog, and certain events. PK is a lot more mobile than SK, and honestly I like playing as him.

It's like megaman + ducktales. Very solid game overall.

But yeah, muh retro style, is the cancer killing indie.
>>
>>332997020
Ducktales wasn't good.
The WayForward remaster was even worse.
>>
i thought it was only okay. it was very "safe" and therefore not very daring or exciting up until the final levels, which i thought were markedly better. i liked the final boss a lot

i thought freedom planet was a much better retro game in the same year. it had a lot more flaws but i preferred it because rather than "safe" it was fueled by 100% pure sonic the hedgehog autism and real love for the genesis

Only good thing with Shovel Knights art direction is the game itself matched what it was trying to look like.

No complex mechanics, no millions of artifacts on screen, just something that looks like it belongs on an actual NES. Hell they even black out the background during the mid boss fight which is something that use to happen on NES games.

They were originally going to keep to the NES color palette but decided against that to add some detail.

Why do you think Black Knight and Polar Knight were having a reunion in PoS credits?
Why do you think Black Knight tried to stop Shovel Knight from fighting The Enchantress? If he loved her romantically he would have joined her.
Why do you think Polar Knight joined The Order of No Quarter and refused to tell Shovel Knight why?
Why do you think he was staring into the horizon in Shovel Knight's credits? He saw the tower fall and wondered if Shield Knight was okay.

I actually liked Plague Knight as a game more than shovel knight, at times I actually forgot I was playing shovel knight.

not that great honestly

I think I'm generally a pretty cynical person, but I'll be damned if I wasn't thoroughly charmed and won over by the endings of both Shovel Knight and Plague of Shadows.

Plague Knight is too cute

It's literally a sequel to Zelda 2.

I'm afraid of the other two campaigns not being at the same level as Plague of Shadows. I hope that they can get something on that level two more times.

They need to do something new instead of having us go through the same levels again.

So have they said who are going to be the other playable Boss Knights? If Plague Knight is this fun I wonder how any of the others will feel.

Surprised playable Shield Knight wasn't a goal.

I will always consider minerva's den as the best dlc ever made, but this comes close

Specter Knight and King Knight, with Specter Knight coming """soon""". All three playable boss knights were confirmed at the same time.
