My friends said this was a step up from Shovel of Hope and Plague of Shadows but holy shit. A step up is an understatement. Sure the campaign is a lot easier than the others, but it makes up for it by having the sickest movement in a platformer to date. It's absolutely insane the shit that you can do in this game. Plus, every single level is completely redesigned from the ground up to accommodate Specter Knight, rather than running through the same game like Plague of Shadows. It's incredible and I think anyone that likes platformers should play this. Also NEW MUSIC!!!
This is the second game in the whole Shovel Knight shebang and honestly, despite being the same/similar levels in Shovel of Hope, I had quite a bit of fun with it! Perhaps even more. A lot of times it felt like some abilities and combinations were a little useless, but when I found a couple of enjoyable combos and weapons that worked, it was an absolute blast (no pun intended). Also, the ending made me happy :)
