Officially sanctioned cheats!
Shovel Knightis one of those games that you’re able to keep going back to because there’s always something hidden under its surface. It has that old school vibe for sure, a deliberate design decision from the folks over at Yacht Club Games. That’s especially evident based on their love for cheat codes, which are now supported even in individual expansions forShovel Knight.
The developer has revealed thatSpecter of Tormenthas a secret wall jump feature, complete with a blue or red skin tint. This is a clear homage toMega Man X, or more specifically theMega Man Xtremesubseries, with the blue and red skins mirroring X and Zero.
For all their wonkiness and translation issues (kekeke) I loved playing through the pair ofXtremegames, even if they paled in comparison to theXseries proper. Then again, most platformers still do!
Happy Mega May everyone!
