Cyber Shadow

Cyber Shadow was fine. It had too much of the insta-death nonsense that games like Mega Man did, which got in the way of something that could've been a more fun game. It was compelling enough that I continued, but I chalk that up to me being stubborn more than anything else. I couldn't have cared less about the plot, but it looked nice I guess.

Cyber Shadow is scheduled to be released in fall 2020 "Cyber Shadow is a 2D ninja action game published by the makers of Shovel Knight". It was released on Janufor PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows. In the "Yacht Club Games Presents" on February 26, 2020, it was revealed that the game would release in 2021, and that the Shovel Knight Amiibo would be compatible with the Nintendo Switch version of the game. The game was first shown at PAX East 2019, though it was announced less publicly earlier. In an interview with Siliconera, he said that "he story is about exploiting carefully nurtured ancient knowledge with logic" as a reason why it involves both ancient ninjas and futuristic robots. Hunziker has described the game as one that combines "the level design principles of Mario, the skills and action of Ninja Gaiden, the enemy designs of Contra and the dark visual aesthetic of Batman", but has also said that it is more deliberately intended as a callback to Shadow of the Ninja. He has had continued difficulties with the development of the game due to its scope and having to do it almost entirely alone. Four years later he began coding from scratch what would become Cyber Shadow. He later decided to create his own game, but scrapped it. Hunziker's first experience in game development was hacking the ROMs of classic games to manipulate their visuals, effectively customizing them. Although most of the development is handled by Hunziker, the music will be composed by Enrique Martin and produced by Jake Kaufman in addition to their usual role as a publisher, Yacht Club is giving design feedback from their previous experience developing Shovel Knight. Aarne Hunziker, having already been developing the game for years on his own, initially had no intention of teaming up with a publisher he was first discovered by Yacht Club while posting about the ongoing development on Twitter, and later was convinced by them to "join little family".

Shadow discovers that the Master was dying of a mysterious spiritual disease, and her father, in a mad scheme to save her life, attacked the city with his synthetic army and betrayed the Clan so as to drain their mystical powers, and use the drained energy to keep his daughter alive. His ultimate goal is to find the Master of the clan, with whom the original human Shadow had a seemingly romantic relationship. Shadow travels across Mekacity, fighting the cybernetic beings as well as a traitor from his ninja clan called Apparitor, and ends his captured clanmates lives to free their spirits. It is set in the ruins of the fictional Mekacity. The game's plot follows Shadow, a cyborg ninja who sets out to free his fallen clan from synthetic lifeforms harvesting them for their powers. The game's story is told primarily through cinematic cutscenes, though in-engine ones are used as well. It features an 8-bit aesthetic which shares similarities to Shatterhand and contains several gameplay elements of Shadow of the Ninja, Ninja Gaiden, Mega Man, Castlevania and similar games, which include snaking paths and occasional backtracking. Cyber Shadow is a side-scrolling platforming game in which players control a ninja character who battles enemies with a sword and various special abilities acquired as subweapons.

Cyber Shadow

Cyber Shadow is a “modern-retro” game which harkens back to the halcyon days of the 1980s – the golden age for both ninjas and the Nintendo Entertainment System. Developed by Mechanical Head Games, and published by Yacht Club Games, Cyber Shadow was designed over a period of five years by one man – Aarne Hunziker – with music by Enrique Martin. It’s is a devoted love letter to NES-era games like Ninja Gaiden and Shadow of the Ninja—with just a dash of Mega Man and Metroid to spice things up. The game is brimming with challenging gameplay, catchy synth tunes and pixel-perfect, sprite-based art, just right for any player willing to overcome the game’s uncompromising difficulty.

[operationrainfall]

It’s always frustrating when you’re anticipating something for a while, keep thinking about it in advance, then totally forget about it the day it happens. That’s exactly what occurred today with Yacht Club Games Presents. It was on my radar and I just blanked entirely. Thankfully, being in the game journalism industry, I got a helpful reminder later this morning, and then I read about what was presented in Yacht Club Games Presents. To my pleasant surprise, it was a mixture of old and new. If you missed it like I did, you can catch up by watching the video below.

The presentation starts with Sean Velasco narrating and showing off Cyber Shadow with an awesome trailer. I love the visual style of this game, and am happy Yacht Club Games opted to help publish it for Mechanical Head Studios. One cool reveal was that the Shovel Knight amiibo, Shovel Knight, Plague Knight, Specter Knight and King Knight, will all work in the game. They will summon tiny Fairies for their respective character, as well as unlocking color palettes for Shadow. As someone that owns all the Shovel Knight amiibo, I’m looking forward to trying these out. That part of the presentation ended with a release window of Fall for Cyber Shadow.

Then Alec Faulkner, a designer at Yacht Club Games I wasn’t previously familiar with, took over narrative duties. He covered the history of Shovel Knight, including the glorious Kickstarter campaign all through the releases over the following years. Alec then announced that Feb 26 – Mar 3 will be the 3rd anniversary of Specter of Torment, and as such, will have the game discounted by 50%. That’s a great bargain, especially since I loved the story in Specter of Torment the most of all the campaigns. Oh and if that wasn’t enough, this part ended with the reveal of Shovel Knight phone stickers. Though I don’t think I’ll use them myself, they are very snazzy looking.

Next they revealed that the 4.1 update is coming to Treasure Trove, bringing with it a number of fixes and additions. An example is adding 1:1 pixel scaling, and aerial characters in Shovel Knight Showdown being nerfed so they can’t remain airborne as long. Furthermore, all characters can now destroy dirt blocks in Showdown. They also added a Character Gauntlet mode added to Target Attack, which randomly changes characters every time you hit a target. And in true old school fashion, that mode can only be accessed via a cheat code. Also, King of Cards will be adding multiplayer Joustus, which can be found in King Knight’s room. That’s surely good news for those of you actually competent in Joustus, unlike myself.

Then we got a quick Shovel Knight Dig check-in. There wasn’t much, but they did say that new enemies, objects and areas are being introduced and polished on a regular basis. They also had an introduction for the new villain Hive Knight, complete with a butterfly net and beetle buddy. The release date for Dig is sometime next year.

Yacht Club Games announced they have 2 new games in development, though both are a ways off. Then they cryptically hinted at “what they’re crafting in the year of the rat, 2020“. So I’m not sure what to make of that, but I’m intrigued.

The presentation ended with the reveal of a totally new game, Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon. It’s not clear if that was one of the two games referred to earlier or a third, but either way I liked what I saw. It’s a rogue-like puzzle dungeon crawler with adorable chibi characters. Calling it a match-3 would be an insult, as this looks pretty unique. Sadly, there has been no date or platforms announced yet for Pocket Dungeon, though they did unveil a key character, the aptly named Puzzle Knight. And then a dagger was put through my heart when they announced the first playable demo of Pocket Dungeon will be playable at PAX East, which I sadly won’t be at. But if you’re there, you had better try it out! They’ll also have demos of Dig and Cyber Shadow, and you can even challenge the YCG crew at Shovel Knight Showdown.

All in all, I continue to be impressed by the hard work of the folks at Yacht Club Games, and can’t wait to try out their new titles. Stay tuned to oprainfall for more news from the folks behind Shovel Knight as it hits!
