I found it very fun, despite some bugs with the hitbox getting stuck inside the walls and on the floor, but other than that I had a lot of fun

Developer

Thanks a lot for the feedback. Oh yeah, the hitboxes really spoiled the fun for a lot of people—I probably should have spent one more day polishing the game.

Its a good game for the jam I liked how you gave time to make a unique itch page too :D

Funny and cute, I like the character design!

I’d tighten it slightly while keeping your voice:

Love the art intro! A couple of things from my quick playtest:

The movement kit is way more involved than I expected for a jam game — double jump, gliding, the water blast, and the air slam give you a lot to play around with. I especially liked the water blast.

If I had one suggestion, I’d work a little more on the level design and making sure the player can tell what’s reachable. I really wanted to clear the whole level, so realizing I couldn’t reach the knight’s platform even with the double jump was a little discouraging. I kept thinking I was missing something or doing the jump wrong.

Also… Clean Knight is an amazing name. 😂 Nice job!

Developer

The level was created during the final hours of the game jam; I’m glad most of the mechanics resonated with you. Regarding the tricky part—I assume you mean the section with the flying knight over the trampoline—it does require a bit more skill than a first-time player might have: you need to shoot the flying knight and jump onto the trampoline from about the second step. Sorry for the difficulty!

Nice art and intro! I'd love to see the HP bar's gothic theme matched with the art style in the gameplay area. Right now, they feel a bit disconnected.

Developer

Honestly, I would have updated the UI if I’d had more time; I really finished the project right down to the wire.

Nice game, with some lovely art. But the writing makes it quite hard to understand the controls.

Developer(+1)

To be honest, the in-game text was just a formality; I assume everyone checks the description first to learn the controls before playing, so it’s just a quick reminder.

Thanks for the feedback, though.

Nice lil platformer and interesting take on the theme!

I like the gliding

I got biased opinion since Shovel Knight is my most favourite 3ds game. Also a bit on the side note but I love your itch.io page and your profile page, it looks really cool and have its own style going on.

Thanks! I like the game page too—it probably conveys about 40% of the visuals. Thanks for your feedback.
