yacht games money

so they can have a reason why Shovel Knight should be a guest character in Smash.
>Sakurai: "All guests must hold video game history."
>YG: "Well, uh....he's the first third party amiibo....and uh.....he's Mr. Indie due to all these other indie cameos....."
>Sakurai: "Meh, close enough."

>>318174667
this

Sakurai doesn't want to accidentally open more floodgates after doing Snake and Cloud. the hack probably told Yacht Games to break a deal with other indie devs to keep shilling SK to make him an sudden video game icon.

this must be also the reason why the SK amiibo date was set back to the 18th

Because every two bit hack indie game wants to leech off its success.

>>318174148
2/3 of those will never be released and 1/4 of them will suck

They did what most crowd funded indie games can't do. Make the game. Much less make it good

He also cameos in Armillo in one of the later levels.

THIS GUY SAID A VIDEO GAME WAS GOOD

GET HIM
>>
>>318175463
I love how easy this dumbass is considering his creator actually wanted him to beat the protagonist.
>H-he can beat Shovel Knight!
>With slow obvious projectiles? You're gonna get pogo'd kid.
>>
>>318175463
This guy must have a lot of money to put his character into a game.
>>
>>318173862
I think he's in Cook, Serve, Delicious.
And maybe they updated Super Meat Boy?
No idea.
Please explain OP
>>
>>318177167
People like him always do, they don't actually spend their money on vidya, they're too busy churning out drawings of their donut steels kicking some reputable character's ass. Or they get commissions from Deviantart and shit.
>>
>>318175463
The guy behind this character is the most autistic fuck and has a gigantic deviantart page dedicated to him. He also talks about how girls are icky.
>>
>>318173750
How long have you been playing indie games? They've literally done this forever. Popular indie characters always make tons of cameos in later games.
