You may have read quite a bit about Shovel Knight recently, it was thrown into popularity when it was shown off little a month ago where afterwards the game was made available to support via a Kickstarter campaign, adding additional features such as a music player, achievements and even a gender swap mode.
The original aim was to generate $75,000 in order to develop the game although as the campaign concluded the figure raised stands at $311,502, only more than quadruple what the developers originally asked for.
The game is coming to PC, Steam, Mac, 3DS and Wii U and we’ve taken the liberty of listing exactly what is going to be featured in the game thanks to the kind, kind donations of Kickstarter users:
- Music Player + Extras
- Achievements
- New Game +
- Playable Boss Knight
- Linux / Mac Version
- Playable Boss Knight 2
- Gender Swap Mode
- Challenge Mode
- 4 Player Battle Mode
- More mystery stuff
It’s great to see games such as this given the opportunity to succeed thanks to the donations of gamers. Are you looking forward to Shovel Knight?
