Slight update from my earlier post: my missing music scroll was not a bug, but an inaccurate walkthrough. Also I really love these cheat codes, but they kind of make me wish you could do even more with them, or at least combine them. Say, a code that lets the fire wand shoot 3 times, and reduces the size of the shots and the damage they do, and lets your character be slightlier bluer.

I wish they would tone down or remove that slight delay/acceleration/whatever when you start moving because its just annoying more than anything, increase the hitbox on the shovel swing a little, just 2 or so pixels wider in the direction you are attacking in, and make all animations as fluid as the best ones are. For example, climbing ladders is just one frame being flipped over whereas walking is very fluid looking. I doubt any of these will ever happen, but one can hope....................................

Do you think there's any chance that some of the other characters could be playable in the future? I know who won the polls, but I really wanted to play Black Knight

Black Knight would play exactly the same as Shovel Knight. If people had voted for him I'd assume they had a momentary lapse in judgment and hamhandedly hit the wrong button with their mouse.

Everybody will already be playable in battle mode (if I'm not mistaken?), so it might not be too much effort for them to add a few more single player campaigns as well down the line. I'm basically holding out a delusional hope that they'll just go 'gently caress it' and let you play as everybody in single player.

If people had voted for him I'd assume they had a momentary lapse in judgment and hamhandedly hit the wrong button with their mouse. C'mon, it's an X and Zero situation. Playing as the cool rival character is appealing even if the gameplay wouldn't be too different, and I can think of about a million ways to subtly differentiate them, even putting aside the fact that he shoots super huge purple fireballs. It's ok if you're more interested in other knights, but let's not start acting like the Mega Man thread where people got incredibly angry at other posters for voting for the "wrong" Call design for Mighty Number 9. Lobster Harmonica posted:I'm basically holding out a delusional hope that they'll just go 'gently caress it' and let you play as everybody in single player. Same.

Gortarius posted:I wish they would tone down or remove that slight delay/acceleration/whatever when you start moving because its just annoying more than anything, increase the hitbox on the shovel swing a little, just 2 or so pixels wider in the direction you are attacking in, All of these are pretty deliberate design decisions, much like the fact that the shovel swing has a slight startup instead of coming out immediately. I really doubt they'd change them. Lurdiak fucked around with this message at 04:33 on Jul 13, 2014 |

Just purchased and beat the game today. A really fun ride, and I hope that the gender swap option means you get to play as the Shield Knight. Aside from that, looking forward to all those extra knights to play as.

I would rather they put their time towards more varied things.  (also i would never want to go near any serious megaman-related discussions which seems like an exercise in pain, so i can't say i'm familiar with any poo poo that went down with mighty number 9)

IIRC Gender Swap and Shield Knight are separate things that will both be added eventually. Shield Knight as an actual full character and Gender Swap as a sprite changing thing I think.

I'm not sure if this applies to the entire cast or just Shield Knight and Shovel Knight.

If the gender-swapped Shovel Knight isn't just the sprite with a bow on it, I am revoking my Kickstarter pledge.

I can't find anything to suggest Shield Knight being playable other than "Gender Swap mode would be stupid if it was just female Shovel Knight" and the fact that she wasn't a poll option

Just beat the game. Have to say...a little bit of a downer ending! Love the Megaman style credits though. This game rocks, it's a perfect SNES tribute, combining all of the best platformers and adventure games of the 16-bit era together in one beautiful package.

I just beat the game with 100% item completion and it was hella excellent. I've just started a new file with Ducktales Mode activated and I am laughing uncontrollably for reasons I do not fully understand. (Is it possible to play the game with more than one cheat code activated at once?)

Man, I was sure that Penny Pincher was going to be an awesomely compelling challenge of a feat to unlock, right up until I found out that you can unlock it on a NG+, even if you spent money on the clear that you started it from.

I did the no spending money run at the same time as a no relic run, also beating a stage without getting any money. I like to try and get multiple achievements at the same time.  Currently doing a no death run to get a few achievements and also breaking every checkpoint along the way because I don't need them.

I've killed the eight bosses before Also, gently caress that giant robot boss. I have no idea how to make it stop shooting those dumb balls and start sending out the platforms so it took like three times as long to kill as any of the other bosses. Surely there must be a way and I'm just dumb.
