certified fucking gas. improves on almost everything they got right in the original shovel knight - awesome music, a great story for its length, and mostly perfect level design (-1/2 star for the tinker knight autoscrollers though). i think my biggest problem with shovel knight was that he controlled like total shit sometimes, but DAMN is it satisfying to do absolutely ANYTHING with specter knight. this is nothing short of an immaculate platforming experience.
