Making this thread because Knytt Stories came out recently.
Knytt and its sequel Knytt Stories are atmospheric platformers with an emphasis on exploration. Imagine Metroid without the shooting. They're both very, very SotC/Ico influenced too, so if you've played SotC, this kind of evokes the same mood. Really good pixel art and really good music. You should totally download them, dickfaces!
what i liked about knytt was that it was a simplistic I MEAN really simplistic no need for power-ups or that gimmicky other stuff. knytt stories has all of this "you cant do a certain jump to the other side BECAUSE it requires an umbrella to slow down your decent" shit. ive played within a deep forest and liked it, who knew a playing as a bouncing ball could be so fun but its no knytt. with knytt its heres the list of stuff you collect to fix you ship and a jump button NOW GO. thats what i LOVED about knytt it was the biggest SOTC ripoff/homage ive ever seen and in 2d, MOTHERFUCKING TWO-D. i prayed to god to let no evil ever befall the creator and to guide his cock to my nubile hairy ass, THEN i discover he is making a sequel and found myself masturbating to his homepage that very night. BUT then after acquiring a beta version after sucking SO MUCH cock, i discover its a knytt's - witin a deep forest's LOVECHILD. how could knytt cheat on me like that, THAT BITCH. what i thought what made knytt so epic and atmospheric is that it doesnt have these SHIT zelda-esque powerups, THAT FUCKING BASTARD, why cant it be heres your sword and arrows now kill that giant. is that SO fucking HARD.
if you want to play the only other nifflas game worth playing try DIS a 2d ICO ripoff that never made it past the second level. when you finish the near-impossible second level/puzzle, email THAT CUNT and tell him to take his super mushroom and MASTER sword out of his ass and masturbate to Fumito Ueda instead.

Dont think of this as hate for nifflas and the games he makes these days, i actually like the guy really. he actually made me have faith in independent developers. its just im having withdrawal symptoms from ICO and really want Yorda to put her small pale bare feet in my mouth. BUT please email him if you play Knytt and Dis and bitch about you love those type of games.

I could never figure out what to do after putting the first UFO thingy in the slot. The first level was cool as hell though.
And I didn't mind the powerups. I mean, the game still plays basically the same (go around a big fucking map to find objects). The only difference is, you have to get the items in a certain order. It didn't bother me.
It helped that I thought the hologram powerup was cool looking, though.
