How Shovel Knight Was Made and Started as a Joke

This Shovel Knight documentary details the development of the indie video game Shovel Knight and goes behind the scenes of its creation. Discover how a handful of ex-WayForward developers started Yacht Club Games and wanted to make a game that adopted a simpler style of gameplay, much like the classic NES games from the eighties. The documentary also explores how the Kickstarter initially almost barely got funded but eventually blew up almost overnight and unlocked every single stretch goal.
It also details all the design decisions that the studio made throughout development and how the team had to break the limitations of the NES to make Shovel Knight work. Furthermore, it delves into how Yacht Club Games ran out of money a couple of months before development and how it affected the team. Lastly, the documentary takes a look at why the developers burned out after developing the first additional campaign and what they did to recover from it.

I love how the first Shovel Knight campaign was retroactively renamed "Shovel of Hope". Reminds me of how they renamed the first Star Wars movie after the prequels happened.

I think it's important to mention that, while the soundtrack does make use of the NES's five main voices or "sound channels", it also has three additional channels from the VRC6 expansion chip. This chip was exclusively used by Konami for two games on Japan only, since the international version of the NES didn't support it. The two official Famicom games this chip was used in make prominent use of it. Kaufman on the other hand, limited the VRC6's role to just background harmonies, effects and other embellishments, with all of the music's core (lead melody, bassline, percussion, etc.) being played by the stock 2A03 chip. This way, the game's music maintains the essence of classic 8-bit tunes, while still making them sound more like how you _remember_ NES music than how it actually was. That aside, this is an excellent video! Super impressive research and editing, love how you incorporated the actual game's aesthetic into it.

[@dshim4731]

this is the game i kickstarted during the time when i was kickstarting left and right, that did more than i expected and went beyond what i thought the game was going to be. so glad to have kickstarted the game, and even bought the artbook later on. thank you for the video.

When i was probably 9, i beat the game on cheat mode. And when i was 12, i beat the game normally, and i had a blast! It was such a good and challenging game. Now, i have all of shovel knights achievements except the speedrun one. I beat all the other campaigns too, but shovel of hope was my favorite.

I didn't replay the other campaigns I just went straight into King of cards. Updating 3DS games is a pain but hopefully with the eShop down I won't have to do that anymore. The 3DS version doesn't have Showdown but multiplayer is not as easy on a handheld so I get it.
