Brings what grabs you about The Joylancer: Legendary Motor Knight: jumping and platforming, a fantasy setting as well as melee combat with weapons or fists.

A lovingly crafted NES-style platformer where a shovel-wielding knight pogo-bounces through varied stages, digs up treasure and battles a colorful cast of rival knights. Tight controls, charming humor and a superb chiptune soundtrack make it a modern classic.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)
