It's a retro-style 2d platformer, but one that's actually very well done.

It's a good retro platformer. Not sure what you guys are smoking if you think those are shat out every month. The last I remember being good was Rogue Legacy.

Rogue Legacy was pretty fun but a little too grindy (I know that was the point of the game but it gets boring when you're doing runs of the castle to increase your stats). Also it falls apart at NG+2, and there's no way to go back to NG+1 without playing the whole game again, AFAIK.

The only things it has in common with Rogue Legacy is that it's in 2d and the protagonist is a knight.

Wait they got mad about how it made fun of IBS or something like that, didn't they?

I'm digging Shovel Knight. It's a lot of fun but I'm worried it was buried under all the deals of the Summer Sale. Hopefully it doesn't become a hidden gem because it deserves way more attention than Rogue Legacy.

At least it's not shovelware like all those other retro platformers.

i've learned to never trust a goon opinion on video games but i will check this game out when it costs less than 5 dollars

Don't trust Games goons, but Imp Zone goons seem alright so far.

The ending was surprisingly tragic and now I'm doing a NG+.

Doesn't Shield Knight live though?
