The following gems are available to be found: To do this you need gold which you collect in various gems during the stages. The main way to enhance Shovel Knight is to buy relics and upgrades. Magic can be upgraded to 100 points in 10 point increments by purchasing the upgrades in the Village from the Magicist. Each relic uses varying amounts of magic when used. Shovel Knight starts with 30 magic points. 3 tickets are purchased in the Village from the Goatitian, 3 are awarded after completing each "set" of Boss Knights. This can be upgraded to 10 by brining meal tickets to the Gastronomer in the Village. Shovel Knight starts with 4 health bubbles worth 2 hp each. Even if an enemy is reeling up to attack, as long as your blow lands first you won't get hit. This often means that you can press an advantage if you manage to land the first blow on someone or you can be a little more daring than you would otherwise. What you may not notice immediately is that you are also immune to their attacks during this flashing. Going along with the moveset and attacks, anytime you strike an enemy and don't kill them (particularly bosses), you notice they flash a few colors for a half second or so and you can't hit them again until they stop. This arcs wider and does 2 points of damage. On most enemies and some special surfaces you'll do a high bounce that reaches higher than a standard jump.Ī regular shovel swing or shovel drop both do a single point of damage.Ī charged swing is available later in the game. On destructible blocks and certain enemies and other surfaces you'll short bounce off. On most surfaces you'll simply land into a standing position. Cancelling a shovel drop is a necessary game mechanic, so get used to doing it! When you land a shovel drop, one of three things can happen. Once you press down, Shovel Knight will continually downthrust until he lands, is hit or it is cancelled by pressing the attack button. Pressing Down in midair will do a downward stab with the shovel. Against bosses and minibosses, a flashing projectile indicates one you can hit that will likely return to the enemy for damage. Each projectile rebounds differently when hit. The basic shovel swing can also reflect almost any projectile in the game and destroys most of the rest. He also uses this button to dig up dirt piles and break destroyable walls/blocks. A standard attack press will swing his shovel in front of him, damaging anything in the 2x2 space directly ahead. He can jump a decent amount, moves pretty quickly and can do a number of different things with his signature shovel. Shovel Knight has a pretty decent moveset for an old school hero. I made up boring names that are at least descriptive so you'll know what I mean when you see it. Many of the items and enemies in this game do not have published names (at least not as I wrote this). This is assuming a normal playthrough of the game, not a new game+, so relics you wouldn't have won't be suggested. When applicable, suggestions on using relics to make a situation easier will also be given. The walkthrough is designed to give strategies for any area without using relics. Although the walkthrough will help you find your way through areas and show the secrets, I recommend playing through at least once without it! Obviously, spoilers abound. If you’re not terribly familiar with the game, check out the Game Mechanics section before getting started. Along the way it will offer suggestions on getting through difficult areas and locations of hidden treasures and song scrolls along the way. It primarily covers the standard game mode. This guide is designed to help your way through the Shovel Knight quest. Please read this before you go any further. ![]()
