I love it but here are some things
I keep dieing as their is an enemy you can’t get past but when you interact with it your instakilled
i love the movement but i can only shoot the shadow blast one way, the slash and movement is great but the sprite and blade slash can get mess up easily

soooo
Work on movement and change how the enemys deal damage because i keep dying
I luv this game tho and add pogos because, because.

Hey ZeroFall,
Thank you very much for your feedback. Looking back, you are indeed right on the suggestions for improvements! The problem with the enemy being stuck there will be quite the challenge to fix but we will try everything in our power to help fix these bugs in the game. One last thing: Do you mean add pogo-ing on enemies or spikes?

Warm regards,
Team Toast

Hey Zerofall,
Thank you very much for your compliment! In the second area, spike pogos are enabled, so check that out. Team Toast will still be working on the development of enemy pogo-ing. Next up, we are planning on adding the forgotten crossroads, introducing the Vengefly, Mantis tribe and possibly some Husk warriors. A problem that we have is that there are 2 designers and modelers and only 1 programmer (me) , making development on the game quite slow as 1 modeler is on vacation right now. She’ll be back soon and we’ll get back to work on the game development right away, soon!

Glad to hear from your suggestions,
Team Toast

Hey everyone,
I accidentally deleted our game. (in a way, more like broke it.) But nonetheless, we have updated the game with a few new mechanics and removed all spells. Our reason for this was that we felt like the player would be too powerful early in the game and for this reason, we swapped it out for dashes. Next update, we’ll add an inventory will storable items and charms along with their notches. Note: the character has a scarf cosmetic that will move according to the player’s movements. This is for the Christmas update.Here’s the new game: link

Sorry but thanks for your support,
Team Toast

Love the cosmentics and you fixed the movement (mostly)
So i was jumping and i realized that if you jump and you look left (without moving) you face right it’s a very small bug and can easily be fixed but also


How do i go through the well?

Dear Zerofall,
Sorry about that little bug. We plan on fixing it and removing the double jump and replacing it with an ability called the Monarch wings. Also, in order to go down the well, you must complete the Snail Shaman’s quest. Speed running and killing both enemies next to him will break the quest, so you will have to re-run the game. We will make this more apparent in the next update. Stay on your toes because the next update will feature 3 new enemies and possibly False Knight Boss. Also, since you are a frequent replier on our game, would you like to be a part of our team? You can choose to be a pixel artist or a programmer, up to you!

Thanks for the feedback,
Team Toast

Dear AgentBoom and the Forum community,
We are a little slow on progress lately but once the sprites have been modeled and positioned properly, we will add King’s pass and forgotten crossroads into our Hollow Knight game. We also added the Absolute Radiance boss fight, which can be entered via. the door to the left of the spawn at the start of the game. @Arexcl Thank you very much for the code and Radiance sprite. Also, since you are also a major contributor AgentBoom, would you also like to be part of our team?

Thanks,
Team Toast

Uh… Major… Contributor? How?
Anyways, I’m kind of busy with a lot of stuff right now, and I would love to join the team, but I’m afraid I simply cannot. Thanks for the kind offer though!
