Has there ever been a Kickstarter offering backer designed characters that haven't been snapped up by people with the most terribly unoriginal OC Don't Steal! bullshit?

Plague Knight seeks to create a plague of explosions. Seems fairly straightforward.

Originally vampires were ghosts. They would drain the life of the living in order to keep their physical form from decaying, but their body would stay in its resting place. Instead their spirit would go out an attack people. Also light wouldn't kill the vampire, although it would weaken and impede it in its hunt for prey.

goddamn I wish I hadn't just posted because that's two sick info posts in a row

looking forward to the third now that I've posted again, ruining all flow of the thread

As a humorous addendum to my previous post, the signs of vampirism were that a corpse would have a healthy, ruddy complexion, weight gain, hair & nail growth, and blood from their latest meal dripping from the mouth. All of which would be caused by natural decomposition. As the blood settled in the body it would give the skin a darker coloration. Gasses would make the body start to swell up. Hair and nails wouldn't grow, but dehydration of the body caused the skin to tighten around those areas and make them look bigger. And blood would leak out of the body as the blood vessels decayed. So pretty much every corpse that isn't heavily treated will look like a vampire.

Or maybe there are just a lot of them? In the Hellboy comics there's a plot thread about how all of the vampires got together in the 18th century and agreed to hide away because people were so effective at killing them. They still made vampires, but they were all kept asleep until the time was right. Perhaps there's some truth to this? This is getting really off topic though.

Proprats are great, but I think propchinchillas would be cuter.

I'm saddened that you didn't utter "Metal Gear?!". It seemed the most appropriate place to do so.

Woodn't that be "Wooden Gear?!"

Tinker Knight is by far the most adorable boss. Perhaps he's the one putting propellers on the proprats.

Mr. Hat is definitely my favorite of the extra bosses, but I kinda just wish he had some more hats

Sounds like the plot of Shovel Knight 2.

This was answered a little earlier, but yeah he does. It's part in why I put off showing off armors for so long-- I wanted to time it right so that I could show off the gold armor explicitly so I could get that one line!

Does King Knight only comment on the gold armor?

I could've sworn you only got a health refill halfway through the refights, or after every other fight. I definitely don't remember getting one after each refight.

Is it tied to difficulty?

So what exactly is Black Knight's deal? Was he trying to protect Shield Knight from Shovel Knight or vice versa?

I love that most of the Order of No Quarter got to have happy endings after their defeats. Especially Tinker Knight, he's so adorable.

I'd like to see what the changes are in the DLC. If the levels are all the same we don't need to watch them again but I'd like to see how the other characters play.

Did the developers happen to make on of their very informative posts about the cheat codes?
