2022-01-07 03:05:23 +0000 UTCWhat I love about Shovel Knight is how it feels like the perfecting of 8-bit gaming conventions wrapped into a single package. It's a love letter, a museum, and a blueprint. When someday in the future I want to my daughter the best of classic game ideas, we have some of the originals, but this game is a polished all-in-one interactive diorama of the greatest hits of that era :)

2022-01-07 01:18:24 +0000 UTCMy first ever game was Centipede on the Atari 2600 in the very early 80s, but as Nintendo were not as big here in the UK, the MS was the console that brought me into gaming.

2022-01-05 21:32:54 +0000 UTCReally enjoyed this episode. Never been much of a retro player, but after hearing this I purchased Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. It immediately made me think of Rastan and Psycho Fox on the SEGA Master System, which, aside from Alex Kidd (built in) and the secret Snail Trail game, were the first two 8 bit games I owned.

2022-01-05 20:18:58 +0000 UTCIt would have been hilarious if you started off with: (in a serious tone) "Hi Vince, mind if I call you Vinnie?" As an ice breaker 😆

2022-01-04 21:36:32 +0000 UTCGreat episode. It's inspired me to give it a bash again (haven't played it in a few years) and I've beat a few stages fairly fast. Haven't touched any of the dlc before and it's nice that it's just been included automatically!!
