I thought maybe it marked a safe drop at first and just died immediately. I had to ask a friend about it to figure that out.

Just got home and checked my e-shop balance. Had $15.05 left!
It was meant to be.

Thanks for the info, ended up going with the Wii U version since it has the feats anyway. Got that nice little Shovel Knight icon on my Front Screen now!

They were pretty open towards the end about fixing bugs and not wanting to set a date until it was approved.
Question was answered on this very page of the topic.
All versions are the same with minor extra features. The Steam version has cards. That's it. Buy it wherever you prefer to play.
But tax...

Yeah, I was thrown off, too.
Yeah! I think so.

Well then, was gonna get this anyway and found out I had $15 left over in my account on my 3DS. Let's do this!
Amusing but not very deep. The main draw of the 3DS version would be the 3D layers, imo. That and the 3DS's portability and excellent d-pad.
It's a fun concept but I don't get many streetpasses in my area (especially because I'm stuck at home right now and too much of a good cookie to do a home relay). Haven't seen the results myself.

Man, this game. Got up to the
map section and beat Propeller Knight. So fucking good...it's hard to criticize much. Gold is maybe a bit too plentiful but that's whatever. Game got pretty challenging starting with the second set of bosses. Not the toughest game ever, but very satisfying and engaging. If the game doesn't putter out toward the end, it'll probably be sitting at number 2 behind Tropical Freeze for my GotY, pending other releases.
Bravo, Yacht Club.

Going to start streaming the beginning of the game in a sec here, if anyone in here hasn't already bought and is on the fence!

Same. I wish this had come out on PS4/Vita for the crossbuy/play awesomeness. That has made life so much easier.

This may not help much but I'd suggest to focus on dodging. None of his stuff is too difficult to avoid. Just play it cool and take your time. Fire rod is useful when he catches the scythe on the other side of the screen.
Did the mention how the 3ds version will be updated?
Not all games support those features, though.

As far as items. Buy a couple containers, in the basement of the first village. Talk to the guy all the way to the right. Then on the map, go up right to talk to the whale. Buy the same potion twice, that fills life and magic to max.
You can also buy a special item, that makes you invincible for a breif moment. You'll need this for doing the gem runs, on the map. Its in an area in the level your in.
Really though, learning his pattern is key. Use fireballs when you can, as well as shovel.
Funny thing is, when i finally beat him, i didnt need any items(besides firerod)/upgrades, since i eventually learned his pattern. Which was the round when i finally upgraded.

Damn, I didn't think of that. I was contemplating getting it on Steam but since I have $6 on my Wii U and I don't see myself buying anything else digitally on the thing except maybe Pushmo World, I probably should use it now.

Yeah, so far it's been really awesome. I expected something great, but it's going beyond that at the moment.
Btw I love the little talk that Shovel has with King Knight, the dialogue in this game is very charming.
Such a great game but I suck. Keep dying on the Plague level and losing all my precious gold 
. Might restart. Do you get anything for destroying all the checkpoints in a level cause I beat the Specter level without checkpoints and got a Meal ticket after, don't know if that's usually the case in that level or not.

Been playing this a lot since last night, love the music, love the gameplay...pretty much love everything about this game. So glad I kickstarted it back in the day.
Quick question, and I apologize if this has been brought up before: the rooster in the airship in the second village, is that a reference to Steelbeak and his airship in the Darkwing Duck NES game? Or am I reading too much into a minor side thing?
