@Pacster Thanks for mentioning it, have been aware of it and recently fixed the placecent of the cloud again. Something in the game affected it last time.
(Very sorry for the late response too, apart of busy my pc got better just recently to open modding tools again).

I don't know if you are still planning any future patches, but I wanted to mention that the cloud sprite that appears for their Arial Down Special is misaligned. It's purely a cosmetic issue, but I wanted to bring it up just in case.

@zarafiq yep, nothing has been said officially, but many skins and hints says that he is a fish. And at the very least in RoA he IS a fish as shown with his taunt.

yes he does have a fish head
zarafiq May 28, 2023 @ 12:58am 
like does shovel knight ACTUALLY have a fish head?
zarafiq May 28, 2023 @ 12:55am 
is this offical?

@Watchirin No idea! Guess the uptades messed up again the skins, because I also tried other SK skins and they also have the cloud misplaced.
Would try something to fix it, but without reference I can't guess how to. Maybe will be changed in another update or something, hopefully...
Watchirin Mar 15, 2022 @ 9:05am 
why the cloud are far when Shovel Knight do air Down-Special? 0.0

@ProDevin Oh, yeah it did changd again. Looks like the new update reverted back the scales of the skin sprites.
Fixed now, changed them to the old version with the correct sizes 👍

The sprites are messed up again, unfortunately.

Spoiler to what? A random easter egg?
Beardedyeti13 Feb 6, 2022 @ 8:14am 
That's actually an interesting point and conundrum

@Beardedyeti13
Well, can't really promote and share it properly if I don't say what is the skin, isn't it?

Maybe is spoiler but is a generally well known one from a while ago, so I will let pass this, heh.

This is cool but did you really have to just imidiatley spoil this .. you could have said shovel knight skin mod, heavy spoiler

@bluehax6 Yes, I mentioned that already in the description. Because I don't have access to some of the filenames in-game, I wasn't able to change a few of them.
The image that leaves the airdodge is one of them, so I worked around to make him look like slides now, but you can still see the original image unfortunatedly.

I will change that only if someday we learn about these internal files.
bluehax6 Dec 30, 2021 @ 1:07pm 
you can still see the base game sprite for a moment during airdodge

@bluekel56 good explanation 👍

If anyone is wondering why he's a fish, in one of the games you can see a fish wearing the same armor as shovel knight saying "It's nice to take that helmet off once in a while" which caused a rumor that he's a fish. The rivals devs saw this and gave shovel knight three taunts, taunting normally would pull out a shop. Taunting and then quickly pressing the parry button would have shovel knight raise is shovel, being a more traditional taunt. Taunting and then pressing the parry and special button would have him raise his shovel and then his helmet falls off revealing him to be a fish and he would quickly pick the helmet back up. The rivals devs confirmed that it was canon in rivals (confirming rivals to just be smash but with furries, and just as if not better than smash) but maybe not in shovel knight. Also the fish head guy did make a few more appearances after that as his own character. That's the story if anyone was wondering

Why shovel knight is a fish? I always thought he is a human.
