A beautiful, quiet, easy to play, free metroidvania. Really leans into what a lot of others in the genre don't, and that is atmosphere and sense of place. Despite lower fidelity graphics, Knytt gets a lot from its tight controls, welcoming tone, and excellent sound design. The footstep sound effects in this game are perhaps my favorite of all time.

A freeware classic.
