So many games in the classic retro pixel-look are released these days. But only a few of them are really good ones. Shovel Knight is one of them. It's played fluently and flawless, it has it's own charme and although it cannot lie about its roots in the old Megaman-games, it has it's own setting and style. I grew up with the Megaman-series on the NES, I liked part 9 and 10 of it and I really like Shovel Knight, which is more like a "a bit Megaman 11". If you liked these old but good games, you will love Shovel Knight.
