Shovel Knight as a whole is pretty awesome, and I was impressed that they made a whole thing for Plague Knight instead of just copy the character over and do nothing else.

I'm looking forward to the next one definitely.
 
Awesome, just got the original game (+ OST dlc) for Christmas, nice to know once I beat it there will be more than just birdface knight's DLC to expect down the line.
 
I got this game for my sister and shes enjoying it. Usually she isn't one for challenging games but the atmosphere is keeping her invested as she learns the satisfaction of beating levels. I told her I wouldn't make her do anything I couldn't so I played a bit and its pretty fun learning new tech like fishing your loot bags or phasing for I-frames.
 
Shovel knight is one the best platformers I've ever played. its gives that classic NES era challege without its being ridiculously hard. the sprite work is top notch and is one of the few indies that get 8-bit style right. also the soundtrack is pretty fucking boss too. I can't wait for king of cards to come out. but I find it weird that they add triple triad as mini game in it.
 
Shovel Knight is goddamn fantastic. Gameplay is addicting, music is amazing, stories are all pretty good in their own way, ect. It's challenging without feeling like bullshit, and the Souls esque death system encourages the player to get better without punishing them too hard.

It feels less like your usual Indie Retro game and more of an amalgamation of the best in both old school and modern game design.

And sorry about the trans thing, I just thought it was better to announce it in here versus having some shadilay autismo screech about it for 10 hours in the culture war thread

I thought the gender swap thing was nice, but only because I'm a filthy Jap and we love our Bishoujo-fied characters. Trans shit tho? Nuh-uh.

And fucking December? I'll be dead as Specter Knight.
 
I am so fucking sick of hearing about this game and how they’ve pimped the character out til he has a 10-meter shithole. Hopefully this last expansion sinks quickly and the whole thing can just fuck off down a memory hole,
