Changelog:

• [Fix] MacOS Big Sur OpenGL Fix
  
• [Fix] Mac OS Notary
  

A new update is here to keep your pixels sharp and Joustus battles jubilant!

[h2]Shovel Knight Design Series[/h2]
But first... have you ever thought about what we think about when making games? Well, think no longer!


Just how did King Knight get his wall-bouncing bash attack or his high-flying acrobatic spins!? Drill into this mobility mechanics deep dive as we explore the illustrious inspirations behind our gilded goon!

[h2]Changelog[/h2]

• New! 1:1 Pixel Scaling mode is now available. It can be found within Options > Screen Scale.
  
• New! Added dialogue line after defeating Blazorb in Cavern of Joustus to help players know there is a larger mystery afoot!
  
• New! In New Game+, gold multiplier info has been added to the level map menu.
  
• Change: Steam Sync option has returned to the Feats menu.
  
• Cheat compatibility improvements.
  
• Localization improvements.
  
• Change: An exit sign post has been added to the single screen treasure area in world 2.
  
• Change: When stealing back a previously lost, non-infinite, non-unique card after a Joustus victory, an entry for that card will always be removed from Chesters Reclaim list. Previously, if the opponent had a copy of that card in their deck, then stealing the copy would cause your stolen card to remain within the store.
  
• Change: Blazorb is no longer required for 100% Joustus opponent victory.
  
• Fix: King Knight not responding to spikes if he was bashing while wind was pushing downward.
  
• Fix: Replaying Joustus tutorial would unintentionally count as defeating a unique card opponent, incrementing the card battle total on the Profile Select screen.
  
• Fix: Playing the Joustus tutorial no longer has an effect on Joustus stats.
  
• Fix: Could avoid damage from Crowndalier by bashing it while it is falling directly overhead.
  
• Fix: Mr. Hat could be pushed out of the arena if damaged during certain attack states.
  
• Fix: Treasure Knight would sometimes aim away from center screen when performing Anchor Shot Zip Slam near edge of the arena, which could result in becoming stuck.
  
• Fix: Final boss first phase could be cleared with certain timing which resulted in the second phase starting with the player player taking damage immediately.
  
• Fix: Final boss second phase would sometimes begin with an unintentional downward laser shot into the void.
  
• Fix: Beginning a roll from bash will reset the attack hold timer, even if the Attack action is bound to two separate buttons.
  
• Fix: Turncoat effect not following King Knight correctly during screen transition.
  
• Fix: Turncoat roll could send the player through a collision ceiling when jumping.
  
• Fix: Turncoat roll could travel higher than intended when activated during jump rise.
  
• Fix: Turncoat and Healing Hammer would buffer and execute twice when used just before touching a spring.
  
• Fix: Using Bubble Frog and making contact with lava wall would cause King Knight to recover as if he was wearing the Rodent Regalia. Recovery now resembles a normal get hit.
  
• Fix: Using Searing Saber and landing on a spring, then Gyro Boots just before bouncing on a spring could result in unintentional visual effects.
  
• Fix: Gyro Boots ending in the air could result in the player not being able to visually turn around until beginning another state.
  
• Fix: Bladescale could sometimes miss catching his thrown sword.
  
• Fix: Rodent Regalia collision issues
  
• Fix: Airship Joustus battles without a chair could become stuck if triggered too quickly.
  
• Fix: Issues when obtaining repeated wisps in World 4s Joustus House
  
• Fix: Issues with dialogue getting stuck when challenging World 3s Joustus House champion
  
• Fix: Bash count stat would increment during certain cinematic scenes.
  
• Fix: Can no longer miss 1 turn to win card rewards
  
• Fix: Using the Joustus Cheat Card Play-Em-All on the turn before Black Knight activates Meteor Attack would cause the meteor attack to never occur.
  
• Fix: Wealth Whirl vortex could behave oddly in rare cases in stages which have warp walls.
  
• Fix: Money Bags would appear incorrectly when traveling through a warp wall.
  
• Fix: Landing and running off the W2s bonus platform using cheats could cause non-progression.
  
• Fix: Always Ice Cheat would cause a non-progression with first Specter Knight battle.
