Fernstrom I did it checkpointless on normal diffculty, the rainbow plateform section always got me. then i discovered that we could skip this by going into the damn ceiling.
This level on NG+ is a nightmare,especially the battle royale. I got killed by mole knight after killing all the other 7 when he had 1 hp left. I literally shouted a Darth Vader "noooo"
God, this might be my favorite music from OST. And the level for it might be my most hateful. NG+. One freaking checkpoint. Holy, that was hard as hell. Stage itself. Bossrush was quite ok tbh, its was fair because of chickens. Most deaths on the level in entire NG+. Oh, I don't want to play this level on deathless playthrough. Please no. But music is freaking epic.
On NG+ this feels like they put Dracula's Lair, the Wily Stages, the final stages of Contra and Tartarus from Battle of Olympus in a blender and made a stage out of it. And even when you get through the hellish boss fights await you, while you take twice as much damage from every attack...goddamn I hate this on NG+...
+Nightblade Hawk That boss rush with the New Game+ rules has got to be harder than the final boss in New Game+. Goddamn. I'm thinking that "Impossible!" will be easier to get than "Again!" since I can just go back to the map and it won't register any deaths in the unsaved level.
HiroProtagonest First of all you need to be so lucky that Plague Knight isn't the first or last you fight and not on a round when you get a bomb. Then you need to be extremely careful not to get hit to much - it would be especially good if you can read their movements and can defeat 2-3 without taking damage. Other than that I can just say good luck to everybody who tries this fight.
This is literally one of the most fitting and amazing tracks to a video game ever. Jake kaufman and yacht club should be fucking applauded for their absolutely insane dedication to making such an incredible and fitting soundtrack that hits the right notes at the right time all the time

Everyone says that this level is a pain on NG+ After doing a normal checkpointless run, this was a piece of cake Especially when you know that you can skip the rainbow statue thing by going on the ceiling.
Also the Boss Rush was not that hard, it was easy as hell. TIPS: Propeller Knight => Use the purple anchors while he is in the air Mole Knight => Charge your attacks and attacks when Mole Knight is about to hit you while he's rushing through the salle Polar Knight => Spam the Phase Locker Treasure Knight => Pogo him, and throw chaos spheres. Tinker Knight => Use Mobile Gear first phase Pogo him, go back on his shoulder when he fires the 2nd missile, and After the 3rd missile, Pogo him again
Read all of these comments and thought 'I mean I struggled too, but not as much as everyone else makes out.' strange. BTW not to gloat, but I did the boss rush on one life.
+linkblade91 It doesn't count, you don't drop gold anyway. Anyway, I found the boss rush easy enough. Died a few times, but the fact that you only get occasional magic regen is compensated by the bosses not having been buffed at all. With the New Game+ modifications, though...
me basically in the boss rush "DON'T BE PLAGUEEEEEE, DON'T BE PLAGUEEEEEE, DON'T BE PLAGUEEEEEE.." [POLAR APPEARS] "PIECE OF CA-" [PUNTED BY SNOWBALL] [BACK INTO THE RUSH] [PLAGUE KNIGHT] [LITERALLY EXPLODED] [QUIT GAME]
I was confident there wasn't going to be a boss gauntlet at the end because I struggled to beat every one of them. 😂 This was the game saying: "guess what? You'll need to get good, my friend"
Good god is this awful on NG+ as Plague knight. I just always get to the scrolling segment at the very end and get knocked off by a stupid exploding rat, then it's back to the very beginning.
Decided to get Checkpointless on NG+. This level made me have a full on mental breakdown.

Unbelievable tune. Gives me chills all the time.
Gives that excellent feel of suspense leading up to the climax.
*Hears the music* "I'm almost there...Shield Knight, I'm coming to save you, just hold on!"
**died by spikes**
*Spin Bursts through the floor*
Shovel Knight: eh, I don't use trinkets really
Shovel Knight NG+: is that a PIT? _FISHING ABOUNDS._
This music just says to me, "let's do this".
this is just the theme of that one f*cking flying green thing.
Those things can go screw off. I only ever got past them by using the war horn.
I died 50 times in this stage my first go
"Inner Struggle" is right!
teeman9266 Well, at that point it's probably more of an "Outer Struggle" as well...
This level on NG+ is a nightmare,especially the battle royale.
I got killed by mole knight after killing all the other 7 when he had 1 hp left. I literally shouted a Darth Vader "noooo"
I fought Mole Knight first, weird.
MechWarrior894 They fight you in a random order every time.
Mylexsi
Guess I got lucky having to fight the toughest one first then.
TheCecchino98 You poor man you.
It's weighted chance who comes first, I swear. 9 times out of ten Polar Knight was first or second for me.
Looks like Dr.Wily helped Enchantress to create this level.
Spiked-Wall-Man guards the tower
Darkaraz *SKELETON-SNAKE-DRAGON-HEADS FROM THE WALL*
I consider this the "home stretch" theme for this game, and it fits perfectly. Its your last couple of steps until the fated boss rush.
God, this might be my favorite music from OST.
And the level for it might be my most hateful.
NG+. One freaking checkpoint.

This song... is also, extremely amazing, and epic.
As the drama mounts, be ready for anything!
Bard: Timpani rolls might be a shortcut to sturm-und-drang, but I've no shame, friend knight.
The climbing part...gotta hate it.
Griffin statues barfing out rainbows...gotta love it.

this is a slow and remix of.........main theme.
you fucking genius
In my opinion, this song does best at incproprating main theme into itself.
This is literally one of the most fitting and amazing tracks to a video game ever. Jake kaufman and yacht club should be fucking applauded for their absolutely insane dedication to making such an incredible and fitting soundtrack that hits the right notes at the right time all the time

Zi Raw I think the one before this was worse. :/
Just listening to this gets my palms sweaty. NG+
THE ANTICIPATION
Oh good lord this stage was complete hell on a no death run...fucking plague knight
Hey, this theme uses the same drums as the Enchantress boss theme. That's a nice touch
THIS STAGE IS SO TOUGH THAT I CAN NOT BEAT IT!
The Enchantress disliked the video
This level on NG+... The Tensions is very real...
Read all of these comments and thought 'I mean I struggled too, but not as much as everyone else makes out.' strange. BTW not to gloat, but I did the boss rush on one life.
Well i did the rush with Plague Knight on one life, but SHOVEL KNIGHT, FUCK no.
+CueCue Rich You couldn't have done the Plague Knight rush with one life: Shovel Knight defeats you at the end of it lol :P
+linkblade91 lmao good point
+linkblade91 It doesn't count, you don't drop gold anyway.

Good job beating the boss rush!
Now do it in New Game+.
me basically in the boss rush
"DON'T BE PLAGUEEEEEE, DON'T BE PLAGUEEEEEE, DON'T BE PLAGUEEEEEE.."
[POLAR APPEARS]
"PIECE OF CA-"
[PUNTED BY SNOWBALL]
[BACK INTO THE RUSH]
[PLAGUE KNIGHT]
[LITERALLY EXPLODED]
[QUIT GAME]
I feel that pain
I was confident there wasn't going to be a boss gauntlet at the end because I struggled to beat every one of them. 😂
This was the game saying: "guess what? You'll need to get good, my friend"
FUCK THIS LEVEL TO HELL AND BACK ON NG+
King of Cards Stage
Warp Wrap Keep
"Inner Struggle", huh? Then...why did only die on this level twice, including the boss fight(s)?
But, really, this track is a masterpiece.
Reminds me of Tron Legacy on this song for some reason!
...Man, that show was great wasn't it? Never got the continuation it deserved.
Am I the only one who gets slightly reminded of Vim and Vigor (Kingdom Hearts 2)
Sounds like... Battlefield?
Good god is this awful on NG+ as Plague knight. I just always get to the scrolling segment at the very end and get knocked off by a stupid exploding rat, then it's back to the very beginning.
I HATE those auto-scrolling parts, they're the worst!!!
