For those that didn't see, Yacht Club Games (the Shovel Knight team) put up a poll of what kind of game people would be interested in them working on next
They just recently put out their results of the pollRIP Landstalker
>All that dislike for a co-op platformer
Man I'd really wanna play something like that
One bump for if anyone ends up finding this interesting
i thought the concept of shovel knight is it was supposed to be like megaman
>>344543009
I guess they're just referring to another Shovel Knight then only instead of a melee weapon you'd be using a gun of some kind.
It'd be hilarious to have YCG make a better MegaMan successor than MN9 on a fraction of the budget
>no one wanted a Spelunky-like
>no one wanted an isometric game like Landstalker
That's depressing.
>>344543009
Shovel Knight is more like a combination of many different NES era games into its own thing
It has some Duck Tales, Castlevania 3, Super Mario Bros 3 and Megaman to make it what it is

OH GOD PLEASE DONT DO SHOVEL KNIGHT 2
A ZELDA OR METROID (pls)
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
>>344541906
It'd be cool if Nintendo bought YCG and WayForward and just merged them
but I don't think they really care about Western devs
>>344543541
You know Yacht Club was started by people who left WayForward to make their own studio, right?
That would be terrible
>>344543709
Yeah I think they only left WayForward because WF is constantly making shitty shovelware/movie licensed games to fund their passion projects
Under a big name publisher though, they wouldn't need to do that anymore
>>344543434
>DONT DO ANYTHING
bruh
>>344541906
Am I the only ne who's kinda fedup with metroidvanias? A Contra sounds nice, miss run'n guns
>>344543189
>no Spelunky
The market is currently stuffed to bursting with rogue-lite offerings though, and there's no shortage of platformers in that group either. Why vote for a game type with recent releases that you can find under every rock?
Seriously though a well done top-down Zelda-like game would be fucking awesome
Whopumped for Specter Knighthere
Shovel Knight X Freedom Planet When?
