this game has customizable ponchos 10/10

ye it's good. wish it was longer. the game is fun but wouldn't want anyone spending 10 dollars for this (wait for a sale). For reference, it only took me about 2 hours to beat this and I was so confused at the ending thinking there was more to the game but when the credits started rolling it was clear the game was over.

but its good

I absolutely love this game. The music is beautiful, the visuals are stunning, puzzles are fun, and it has a heartwarming story. Easily would recommend this game to anyone even if you're afraid of struggling with the tougher puzzles.

I don't have many hours on this game, but from what I've played, I'd recommend it to anyone. The music is great and the pixelated artstyle makes this game feel unique and adds lots of charm. The mechanics to this game are pretty simple, but with the way the levels are made, it's a lot harder than just the mechanics on paper. Because of this, this game can get hard, sometimes up to a point where it gets frustrating, but for the most part, that aspect of the game makes you want to just keep playing to beat the level because when that does happen, you get this insane feeling of accomplishment. When I first bought this, I thought it was going to be like Cuphead (which I never beat because it's just too hard). but surprisingly it isn't. Cuphead requires you to go through lots of trial and error, which gets tedious and annoying, whereas Shovel Knight doesn't make you go through that trial and error process thousands of times. It's a lot more fluid until the point you die and restart at the previous checkpoint.
Speaking of checkpoints, I love how you can break them to get lots of money, but you can't respawn back at that checkpoint, which makes sense. But one thing that annoys me is that you can't save your progress at a checkpoint and leave the game, because sometimes I find that I don't have time to beat a level, so it results in me having to find a time where I know I'll have enough time to beat a level, which is usually about an hour at most (on average I'd say 30 minutes).
Overall, it's a wonderful game and is very fun to play, so if you haven't played this game, honestly what are you doing with your life. (forgot to mention you get like 2 free DLCs or something like that, but I haven't gotten to those yet). BUY THIS GAME, IT'S FUN.

oh heck yea this game is great
probably gonna be one of the few games in my library that I actually go back to play over and over again.

Update: Ok so sadly I haven't really been able to play much of this game recently and I just haven't really gone back to it, but it's still a great game. If I weren't in school at the moment I'd probably have a lot more hours on this game.

this game is too good. Kinda made me confused and mad at some points, but those moments make the game even better. Just buy it
