They really like that Shovel Knight aesthetic.
Looks fun though.
It plays nothing like Shovel Knight and the music is really, really good- not entirely "8-bit" and pretty catchy. The game is kind of like a Mega Man-style action/platformer, but you use melee attacks for everything and have a shield to block projectiles. The weapons you pick up have different attributes/range and also each have different effects when you destroy them, I.E. health regen, defense up, etc. You can also sell weapons back to a shop and use them to upgrade your armor. You can exit the armor at any time and as the pilot, you have a Castlevania-like whip. She's much weaker and has way less energy, but can get into certain spaces that the armor can't and there's some sections where you use the whip to swing across chasms. I'm pretty impressed with the game. Keep getting my ass kicked by the bosses, but I don't mind since it just meant selling weapons back for health increases, lol.
