It's amazing! I totally recommend it if you like platformers.

kickstarted it and ordered the 3ds version... only to find it's not available in the yurop e-shop yet and probably won't be for some time for some bull reason. q.q
It looks good, but heck if this hasn't really soured me on it.

Last time I even look at a kickstarter for a nintendo console.

You can get it on Steam I think... or a DRM-free on Shovel Knight's website but I'm not too sure if it works for Europeans.

I've seen so many people playing Shovel Knight on twitch, but it looks like a lot of fun! I definitely want to pick it up for the 3DS. (Or maybe Steam if I get a new laptop.)

I got it on Steam. It's fun and a bit challenging.

Grabbed it for my 3DS. It's a must-buy for sure.

I honestly think it's one of the best games that's come out this year so far.

I already wanted it but now it's getting even more praise. IGN named it best game to download for WiiU for July and gave it a 9/10 I mean if they like it and the community likes it then it's really good, cause it's not often the community agrees with them now on things like this

Don't know much about it but I am planning on getting it. From what I've heard, it's a fantastic game.

it is indeed, and only 15 bucks too. i'd recommend getting it on wiiu or steam, the 3ds version won't be getting certain game play modes.
