the amiibo thing is weird, nintendo isnt manufacturing it, they got the rights to have their own amiibo made by a 3rd party

Shovel knight is loving awesome and they just more doubled the base content in a free content release. They've reached the very rare echelon of Good Western Devs

And Spectre and King Knights' updates will triple and quadruple the base content. For free. :psyboom:

It didn't tick me off, and I went and got them all. You get an armor that changes your loadout every few seconds and always sets the max bombs to 3, even if the powder previously only let you use one. I'm playing through ng+ hard with it and it kicks rear end.

i was concerned when they showed off the bomb design thing cuz in a lot of games that kinda stuff is pretty superfluous but since its your primary weapon you need to mess with it, and its really fun to swap out which bombs youre using to like hit a dude while stuck on a ladder or whatever

Also some bomb combinations ended up being good counters for specific boss fights and it made the game feel even more like a fun Mega Man game

i think the float burst disables charging a new burst until you land. that's how it seemed to me at least

its the only one that cant burst more than once in a row. I used it for a while but once I discovered the power of multiburst I never went back. I kind of wish i didn't pick it up because I dont like when it comes up while I'm using the randomly changing loadout armor.
