It's time, Decadent Dandies! Shovel Knight is here! The glorious homage to NES platforming is finally out, and I, for one, am absolutely in love with it. The game's quirky characters and design match so well with the spectacular soundtrack.
For those of you who are unaware, Shovel Knight is a callback to older NES games such as Mega Man and Castlevania in terms of gameplay, villages are straight out of Legend of Zelda II, and the map is very much Super Mario Bros. 3. Another plus is that you can attack with Scrooge's drop down cane attack from Ducktales. The game is made by Yacht Club Games (http://yachtclubgames.com/). They brought it to Kickstarter over a year ago to help fund the game. Thanks to an incredibly successful campaign, the game is available today for PC, 3DS, and the Wii U.
Have any of you heard of it? Played it? Are any of you planning on getting it?
*just wants more people to talk about this*
