Castlevania inspired too apparently, but I'm only seeing that in the whip combat and enemy designs honestly. Kickstarter funded like the first. I really need to give Hollowknight a chance sometime but I got too much to play as is, I want to know what was so good about it that it got 4 expansions over 7 years. But I hate classic games like that tbh, megaman included. Games were some bullshit in the old days.

Definitely reminds me of the gameboy games. Might check it out.

There was another one of these that was supposed to come out like a year ago that looked pretty good. Zelda like that is, I lost track of that one. It had more the snes look though.

Every game has to either be a Zelda, Pokemon, Dark Souls or Metroid clone. There's no creativity in gaming anymore.

I see Castlevania, I see Link's Awakening, I even see some Mole Mania what with the digging.

creative works have always taken inspiration from previous creativity. it's always been this way, but you were too young to notice.

yeah, I miss the 80s where every other game was a Pac-Man knockoff

If anything, it felt a bit like Mega Man to me, oddly enough.

Specter of Torment really gave me MM vibes with their being a teleport to one of the stages directly, rather than a SMW-esque world map like the other three Knights.

It was MegaMan, of which there's a million clones too

But there's also plenty of creative shit that doesn't fit that, he just doesn't play it

Game looks good. I'm curious though, realistically how many people under the age of 30 go after these kind of games? Anyone know any stats on how receptive zoomers are to 32/16/8bit graphics?

Shovel Knight was inspired by DuckTales and Mega Man, maybe some Zelda 2 as well.

This game looks interesting though. I wonder if Yacht Club games is using the same composer. The soundtrack of Shovel Knight has some of the best 8bit chip tunes in any indie game ever made.

Never thought I'd see the GBC style make a comeback, even with retro styles gaining popularity. I'm all in on this game already.
