Shovel Knight

[Hama]

Anyone played?
I played. Got whacked by the dragon. Four times.
My old school arcade mojo is gone it seems.
Fun game nontheless.

I was pondering getting it later today.

I kickstarted it. Playing the PC version. Good controller support.

I'm almost finished with the first pass. Has a Wizards and Warriors kind of feel to it.

Not terribly difficult if you can still beat Mega Man games, but extremely fun.

Got the game and I have to say I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Or, should I say, I dig it.

It pushes all the right buttons by both appealling to a strong sense of nostalgia while at the same time providing a very entertaining gameplay (and a fantastic soundtrack!).

It's like I'm playing a mix between Mega Man and Ducktales. And I loved both Mega Man and Ducktales.
